Hi all. In this article I’ll tell you about the new Alpha, which comes with a 125 cc engine, and I’ll also give technical specifications. Of course, the 125 cc Alpha will already be more powerful than the 110 cc Alpha. It will be faster and faster in speed. And the main difference from the 100 is the engine.
The engine of the Alpha 125 moped can use a circular gearbox.
Lighting
Many owners of the new Alpha praise the lighting. The fairing with the headlight looks great and in the dark the low beam illuminates the road widely. It's comfortable to drive even with high beams.
Brakes
Brakes can be installed either drum type or disc. The disc brake mounted on the front wheel is a great thing. If you compare it with a hundred and ten, which has drum brakes, the difference is noticeable.
No cables! How the brake hose is installed on the car. There is a box with brake fluid on the steering wheel.
Tank capacity and fuel consumption
The tank is set to 10 liters. Under the tank there is a fuel supply valve to the carburetor with three positions:
- The position is on;
- Off position;
- Reserve.
Gasoline can be filled with both AI 92 and AI 95. Fuel consumption is 2 - 3 liters. The moped is very economical and, if you fill a full tank of gasoline, you can travel approximately 450 kilometers. The tank cover is opened with the ignition key.
Steering part
The steering wheel and controls on the Alpha 125 moped may differ from their counterparts. The handles are more massive, an additional ignition on/off button has been installed, and a button has been added to the left side of the steering wheel that can be used to blink the high beams.
An electronic control panel can also be installed on the moped.

Description and features
A mini-chopper or a mini-Harley is how you can describe the Jordan moped. External similarity is determined by extensive mirrors, a wide steering wheel and a characteristic landing. However, the Chinese-made moped is an exact copy of the Japanese Honda Jazz. The manufacturer Regal Raptor managed to create a very accurate analogue of a moped, which is no longer produced by the Japanese, while maintaining the aggressive design of the handlebars and frame. The importer of the model in the Russian Federation is Motorworld.
Jordan 110CC moped has a unique appearance
One of the main features of the “miniature Harley” is that, according to documents, it passes for fifty dollars, despite the fact that it has an engine capacity of 110 cm3. This means that you will not need a category A1 license to drive this vehicle. There is also no need to register a moped with the traffic police.
This inexpensive Chinese 110cc chopper is an excellent option for outdoor trips. Many owners note a moped as a purchase “for the soul.” Let alone affordability - Jordan costs about the same as a good bicycle.
The quality of the parts is at an average level, so some improvements may not be superfluous. It is recommended to replace Chinese nuts and bolts with better ones if the moped was purchased disassembled. Some owners also change the high steering wheel, because it may not be comfortable for everyone.
A comfortable fit is what else the Jordan moped is valued for. There is quite enough traction when driving, but if you are driving with an adult passenger, then it would not be a bad idea to strengthen the passenger seat.
Jordan feels better on city asphalt than on dirt roads, but he is also quite adapted to driving on them - it does not cause any particular discomfort.
The Jordan moped is valued for its comfortable fit.
Yamaha Cygnus X 125 scooter review
In 2003, not only 50 cc scooters Cygnus X 125 . The success was predictable, since the scooter manufacturer, Yamaha Motor Company , has held a leading position in the motorcycle market since 1955.
Buyers, after reviewing scooters, often stop their attention on the X 125 model. Indeed, this scooter is one of the best models of a city scooter in the 125 cc class. It is as maneuverable as a 50 cc scooter, and as dynamic as a 125 cc scooter. The wheelbase is small - only 1295 mm, so the scooter can easily overcome city traffic jams.
Cygnus typically delivers a scooter consumption of 3 liters per 100 km during a quiet ride. During vigorous driving, in accordance with the passport characteristics, its consumption is 4 liters per 100 km. According to reviews from scooter owners, acceleration cannot be called dynamic. The response characteristics of the X 125 scooters are satisfactory - they correspond to the cruiser class.
Yamaha Motor regularly evaluates the failure statistics of its equipment. If a review of scooters reveals unstable operation of the units, then such models are recalled and modified. For example, this happened with the XC125 modification, in which unstable operation of the speedometers was detected. This fact allows us to say that Yamaha Motor is a company that produces reliable motorcycles.
The Cygnus X 125 uses high-quality materials in its design. In addition, all modern technologies are provided to increase the comfort of the driver and passenger: a wide stepped seat, a trunk under the seat, an open glove box. It should be noted that the braking is uniform, backed up by brake lights, and the suspension is comfortable. The luminosity of the headlights is quite sufficient for driving through the city at night. The scooter has sufficient ground clearance for driving on country roads.
Technical characteristics of the Yamaha Cygnus X 125 scooter:
| Length - 1855mm Height - 1110mm Seat height - 775mm Width - 685mm Base - 1295mm Clearance - 120mm Fuel capacity. tank - 7.1 liters Total weight - 112 kg. Engine E343E, OHC Air cooling Cylinder-1 (52mm, 4 valves per cylinder) Stroke 4 (piston stroke 57.9mm), Carburetor | Volume - 124.8 cc Power 10.6 hp at 8500 Kick start + electric starter Speed max 100 km/h. CVT drive (V-belt) Automatic clutch (centrifugal) Front telescopic suspension Rear pendulum suspension (shock absorbers) Front disc brake Rear drum brake Front wheel 110-70-R12 Rear wheel 120-70-R12 |
Yamaha Cygnus X 125 can be recommended as a corporate model. The driver in an office suit looks quite natural on this scooter.
The scooter has sufficient ground clearance for driving through country roads, so it can also be used as a country cruiser. For future buyers, we inform you: the average cost of a scooter produced in 2003-2008 is 105 thousand rubles.
A post about my thoughts on the now iconic Alpha moped. It should be taken as a joke, but although... Hello dear Bikepostushka. Once again, looking through YouTube in search of interesting information, I couldn’t help but notice that most of the videos on youth motorcycle topics begin with Alpha and over 9000 reviews of it and end with stories about 120, or even 130 km/h flying on it.
Naturally, the video of blogger (with your permission) Misha Taburetkin about his Alpha aroused great interest among the people. No, of course, there were a lot of reviews before it, but THIS... It was just an explosion of emotions and a ton of laughter, but then it became not funny after the person began to understand the slightest bit about technology. But that’s not about that now.
Why Alpha?? Price-quality ratio. And this is the main plus, and the rest is a matter of technology, hands and over 100,000,000 tunings.
On the one hand, a little tuning won’t hurt even a new motorcycle, and even more so a scooter and moped, but people’s fantasies don’t stop.
What they do: Lift the ass, front, back
Whistles, fakes, horns, LED strips in more quantities than needed.
The most important advantage is speed. The maximum speed of this moped for normal people is 80 km/h - 125 cubic meters (somewhere around 110 cubic meters, depending on the imagination of Chinese friends). But for normal guys, at least on 50 cubes he gets 80, but on 125 (110) all 120 at least.
Although with such tuning it can fly.
In this regard, there are many examples of Alpha racing with motorcycles of the same cubic capacity, where Alpha invariably wins, or if it loses, then either the turbine is clogged, or the gas has run out, etc. and so on.
How many people wrote to such comrades that this cannot be, that Yubrik does not throw so much, everything is like a boat.
You have a 125 (110) cc moped, but you don’t have a license (the kind of license a schoolboy on an Alpha would steal from any motorbike) - instead of a speedometer marked 120 km/h, put a speedometer at 60 km/hour for miles and there are no problems. But now, in accordance with the new law, there is.
Even no less surprising are the stories about how the boys tear Urals, Izhi and all (domestic) cars from their place. Although I saw a turbine for a scooter today, so maybe they put a turbine in there and the whole thing is called “Alpha street turbo edition”. Although the stickers inspire.
Music is a separate article. A lot, a lot and useless. The driver of this miracle of tuning does not see or hear anything that contributes to the violation of all traffic rules and the creation of an emergency situation and more than one.
The pilots themselves. You can’t really call it crunchy, because it doesn’t go 120 km/h (well, the Alpha street turbo edition can), but maybe even a brain. Pilots without a helmet, without equipment, in shorts and sandals, but with a young girl dressed in the same way or, more often, with a guy in the passenger seat. And this is where the maximum speed of this device lies - minimum clothing for maximum speed, and the speedometer is incredibly lying to intimidate girls.
But in fact. Alfa is basically an excellent moped for the money. If you take good care of it, keep it in order, and run it in properly, then it will serve you well and for a long time. And perhaps he will go 120 km/h - dragging behind a foreign car.
Thank you for your attention. Love your motorcycles, mopeds, scooters, cars.

Advantages and disadvantages
The main advantages of the Jordan moped:
- Appearance. Very relevant for young enthusiasts, because the external resemblance to a motorcycle really looks more stylish than the fit of a scooter. With such a moped it is difficult to go unnoticed on the road, because the unusual design catches the eye of everyone.
- Access to the main components, providing better maintainability compared to scooters. The absence of decorative plastic, in addition to simplifying maintenance, also serves a certain aesthetic function, adding brutality to the Jordan.
- Low fuel consumption. The power consumption of a moped usually depends on the driving style, but it is unlikely that a Jordan will need more than 2 liters per 100 km.
- Availability of a manual gearbox. If a moped is the first vehicle, then a young driver will be able to learn how to operate the clutch, which will significantly simplify the development of the car. Also, manual gear shifting will help reduce fuel consumption to one and a half liters.
- The large diameter of the wheels allows the moped to be used for light off-road driving.
- Availability. The Chinese analogue of the Honda Jazz can be purchased at an attractive price, so even a student can afford a Jordan moped.
- Small dimensions, allowing to improve cross-country ability in the city, when all motorists are stuck in traffic jams.
The main advantage of the Jordan moped is its appearance
. Disadvantages:
- A narrow wheel, because of which the moped does not really like dirt.
- An open fuel tank, from which it is very easy to drain gasoline.
- Sometimes you can feel the Chinese build quality - so it’s better to monitor the condition of the components more closely.
- Still the same manual transmission, which requires a certain attitude and driving skills.
- For a comfortable and safe ride with an adult passenger, the seat will have to be reinforced.
Most of Jordan's shortcomings are not critical and can be eliminated quite easily. At the same time, some shortcomings may not be noticed at all - it all depends on the driving style and the characteristics of the operation of the moped by a particular owner.
Jordan moped can be purchased at a low cost
