With its 124.9 cc liquid-cooled V-twin engine, the Morbidelli N125V has something truly unique for enthusiasts.
Morbidelli, the famous Italian racing brand, has been acquired by China’s Keyway Group. It operates as part of Keyway’s premium brand MBP (Moto Bologna Passione) and focuses primarily on European markets. The latest offering is Morbidelli N125V, which is targeted at the A1 and B196 license classes. Let’s see the details.
Morbidelli N125V – Performance
Bikes in this segment are usually seen with single-cylinder engines. The Morbidelli N125V is different, as it uses a 124.9 cc liquid-cooled V-twin engine. This is in line with Kiway’s core philosophy of offering stylish, well-equipped products at accessible prices. The Morbidelli N125V generates 13.8 hp and 10.9 Nm of peak torque. It has been introduced with a 6-speed gearbox. The engine is designed to deliver smooth torque output and low vibration.
Users can expect a refined riding experience, which is quite different from a single-cylinder bike. The top speed of N125V is 99 km/h. Other key features considered premium in this segment include a traction control system (TCS), dual-channel ABS, USD forks, a steel trellis frame and an aluminum single-sided swingarm. The Morbidelli N125V uses 17-inch sporty alloy wheels at both ends, wrapped in 110/70 tyres.
Braking setup consists of 300 mm front and 240 mm rear disc brake. The bike features a 41mm upside-down telescopic fork from KYB with 120mm of travel and a monoshock unit at the rear with 34.5mm of travel. The rear suspension has a continuously adjustable preload function. With a seat height of 795 mm, this bike seems to be suitable for a wide range of users.
Ground clearance is 165 mm and the bike can carry 16 liters of fuel. The only concern that could be had is that the bike weighs 185 kg, which seems heavy for this segment. The bike is designed to be light weight and optimized for power-to-weight ratio for the A1 license category. However, with a V-twin engine and premium equipment, the extra weight is unavoidable.
Morbidelli N125V – Design and Features
The Morbidelli N125V has a compact, athletic build that will appeal to young riders. Key features include a sharp LED headlamp with integrated DRL, sculpted fuel tank, open steel trellis frame, sporty dual exhaust and split seats. The bike has all-LED lighting and uses stylish cast aluminum wheels in glossy black finish. Buyers can choose from four color options available with the bike.
The Tech Package includes a circular LCD dashboard that displays a range of information. Data is presented in a clear, legible format, ensuring easy readability even in bright lighting conditions. Users can check the speedometer, odometer, tachometer, fuel gauge and gear indicator.
The Morbidelli N125V is expected to be available in showrooms in Europe in May 2026. Italy and Spain could be among the first countries to get this bike. Prices are expected to be announced in the coming days or at the time of launch. The Morbidelli N125V will take on rivals like the Yamaha MT-125, KTM 125 Duke, Aprilia Tuono 125, Honda CB125R and the Husqvarna Svartpilen 125.
