125cc Gearbox.jpg)
This class primarily uses Honda
RS125 motors with some Yamaha and TM engines also being used.
These karts have compulsory dual circuit front and rear brakes and 6 speed
gearboxes.
Full aerodynamic bodywork including rear wings are used to achieve speeds
of up to 190 kph and on tighter circuits can almost match the larger
capacity classes on lap times.
The 125cc gearbox class appeals to those that want the performance of a
proper GP type engine, with the lower maintenance requirements of a single
cylinder engine.
Costs of these karts vary from $5000 TO $12000 and the minimum class
weight for kart and driver is 180kg.
