The Lexmoto LXR 125 is one of the best-known learner-legal sports bikes in the UK, combining full-size sports bike styling with a 125cc engine that can be ridden from age 17 with the correct licence and CBT entitlement.
The latest Lexmoto LXR 125 E55 brings the model up to Euro 5.5 specification, with an updated liquid-cooled Zongshen engine, 6-speed gearbox and the aggressive styling that has made the LXR such a popular choice with new riders.
Lexmoto LXR 125 E55 – Big Bike Looks, Learner-Legal Performance
One of the biggest attractions of the LXR 125 is its physical presence. Rather than looking and feeling like a small commuter bike, the LXR has the proportions, fairings and riding position of a much larger sports motorcycle.
That makes it particularly appealing to riders who want their first 125cc motorcycle to feel substantial while remaining suitable for learner riders.
Lexmoto LXR 125 Engine and Gearbox
The current LXR 125 E55 uses the Zongshen ZY125SR liquid-cooled, single-cylinder four-stroke engine.
- Engine capacity: 125cc
- Maximum power: 10.6kW @ 9,500rpm
- Maximum torque: 11.5Nm @ 8,500rpm
- Cooling: Liquid cooled
- Fuel system: Electronic fuel injection
- Gearbox: 6 speed manual
- Drive: Chain
- Start: Electric start
The 6-speed gearbox gives the LXR the familiar feel of a full-size manual motorcycle and makes it a natural choice for riders who want to build experience before progressing to a larger bike.
Sports Bike Chassis and Riding Position
The Lexmoto LXR 125 combines a sporty riding position with telescopic front forks and a rear monoshock. Its 17-inch wheels and wide rear tyre help give the bike the planted appearance and feel riders often look for in a sports-style 125.
- Front tyre: 110/70-17 tubeless
- Rear tyre: 150/70-17 tubeless
- Front suspension: Telescopic forks
- Rear suspension: Monoshock
- Seat height: 830mm
- Mass in service: 168kg
Brakes, Lighting and Equipment
Hydraulic disc brakes are fitted front and rear, together with a combined braking system. The LXR 125 E55 also comes with modern LED lighting, including LED headlights and indicators.
A digital instrument display keeps the main riding information clearly visible, while the stainless-steel exhaust provides a durable factory-fitted system that suits the styling of the bike.
