The Modern Bobber

Redefine your ride with the Keeway RKV 125 C, a motorcycle that brings the rebellious spirit of the "bobber" culture to the 125cc class. This isn't just a commuter; it’s a head-turner designed for riders who appreciate retro soul blended with modern engineering. With its low-slung profile, chopped tail, and muscular stance, the RKV 125 C oozes attitude.

Available in two distinct, character-defining finishes, this bike allows you to choose your vibe. The Deep Red edition brings a touch of vintage hot-rod flair, highlighting the bike's curves and fuel tank geometry. Whether cruising through city streets or carving down country lanes, the liquid-cooled V-Twin engine ensures the performance matches the style.

Key Features

• Authentic Bobber Styling: Low seat height, chunky tyres, bar-end mirrors, and a short "chopped" rear fender give this bike a custom-built aesthetic straight from the factory.

• V-Twin Power: Unlike many 125cc cruisers that use single cylinders, the RKV 125 C boasts a proper V-Twin engine, providing a richer exhaust note and smoother power delivery.

• Modern Tech: Despite the retro looks, it features a fully digital circular instrument cluster, keeping the handlebars clean while providing all necessary data.

• Premium Braking: Equipped with massive disc brakes front and rear with CBS (Combined Braking System) for stopping power that punches well above its weight class.

• Comfortable Cruising: The wide handlebars and low 690mm seat height create a relaxed, upright riding position suitable for riders of all heights.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the RKV 125 C heavy for a learner? A: At 164kg, it is heavier than a standard scooter, but the weight is carried very low down. This low center of gravity, combined with the ultra-low seat height (690mm), makes it incredibly stable and easy to balance, even for shorter riders or beginners.

Q: Does the V-Twin engine make a difference? A: Yes. A V-Twin engine is rare in the 125cc category. It offers a distinct rumble that sounds bigger than a standard 125, provides smoother vibration characteristics, and delivers excellent torque for city cruising.

Q: Which colour is easier to maintain, Red or Black? A: Both feature high-quality paint finishes. The Black is stunning but can show dust and swirl marks more easily if not washed carefully. The Red tends to hide light dust a bit better, but both will look incredible with regular cleaning and polishing.

Q: Is it suitable for tall riders? A: Surprisingly, yes. While the seat is low, the forward-mounted footpegs allow for a stretched-out leg position, making it comfortable for taller riders who might feel cramped on a standard naked bike.

Q: What is the fuel range? A: The RKV 125 C has a massive 19-litre fuel tank. Combined with the efficient 125cc engine, you can expect an exceptionally long range between fill-ups—potentially over 300 miles depending on riding style.
