2010 Sachs MadAss

[Gas Man]

Found these at my local dealer. Sat on one... WOW. Only 200#. Would be great in a urban environment. I just want to go have fun on it. I could lift the rear of the bike with one hand.

$3045 OTD in Michigan




Review and Video

The MadAss 125 is a 124cc bike weighing just 209 lbs with a special frame design that allows shocks from the rear wheel to be sent up to the front suspension, giving the rider a smoother ride. The fuel is carried inside the frame, so no bulky gas tank. Other than that you get twin 55 watts headlights, dual disc brakes, low profile tubeless tires on 16" alloy rims and 43 mm front forks. The Madass 125 shares the minimalist philosophy of its smaller sibling. Fuel is carried in the frame, so a bulky fuel tank is not required and the twin seat sits on a single tube running from the bike's spine, so no rear sub frame is required. The result is an incredibly light machine.

As you would expect from Sachs, there is no compromise when it comes to quality components. Reliable stopping power is delivered by a 260mm front hydraulic disc brake, backed up by a 215mm hydraulic unit at the rear. The beefy rear mono-shock absorber has hydraulic damping and adjustable pre-load, so suspension can be tailored to suit the rider. The twin stacked headlights provide plenty of illumination as well as giving the front end an aggressive 'streetfghter' appearance. Power is provided by a reliable 4-stroke engine, which can be started at the push of a button. A cool oval silencer, fitted with a catalytic converter, takes care of emissions.

No fuel gage, no center stand, no storage compartments, racks or windshield, it’s “motorcycle” distilled to its purest form. Propelled by a 119.7cc, 4-stroke, 4 speed engine the MadAss is capable of reaching 56 mph right out of the box. A bone-stock MadAss is definitely no speed demon, but I found the riding performance to be fine for navigating the cityscape. I’ve been told that a handful of inexpensive bolt-on upgrades could push the upper limit to 75 mph without cracking the engine case.

I sold the '08 for $2500.

that's way too pricey, that's a chinese 50 clone motor.

Replace the 4-stroke 125 with 2-stroke 125, halve the price, and I love it.

I prefer the CBR125.
280lbs with a full tank of fuel, and it will do 75mph with a 125cc four stroke.

Too bad you guys can't get them.
