Overview

Introducing the 2013 CCM Spider RL-125, a spirited entry in the sport motorcycle category that caters to both new riders and sportbike aficionados alike. Manufactured by Clews Competition Motorcycles (CCM), a renowned British brand with roots tracing back to the 1971 collapse of BSA's competition department, the Spider RL-125 is designed to blend lightweight agility with striking aesthetics. With its sleek lines and bold color options in black and red, the RL-125 stands out in the crowded entry-level market, making it an enticing option for those looking to embrace the thrill of two-wheeled adventures. At the heart of the Spider RL-125 lies a robust single-cylinder, four-stroke engine that displaces 124cc, delivering a spirited 10.06 horsepower at 8500 RPM. This powerplant, combined with a light frame weighing just 125 kg (275.6 pounds), ensures nimble handling and an exhilarating ride. The air-cooled engine features a compression ratio of 9.0:1, a carburettor fuel system, and CDI ignition, providing reliable performance for urban commutes or weekend joyrides. The conventional front fork and dual shock rear suspension work harmoniously to absorb bumps, enhancing stability and comfort as you carve through corners or navigate city streets. The Spider RL-125 is equipped with essential features that emphasize its sporty nature and rider-friendly design. The electric starter ensures a hassle-free ignition, while the single disc brakes at both the front and rear offer confident stopping power. With a ground clearance of 220 mm (8.7 inches) and a seat height of 810 mm (31.9 inches), the bike strikes a good balance, making it accessible to a wide range of riders. The steel tubular frame not only contributes to its lightweight design but also provides the necessary strength for spirited riding. The 12-liter fuel tank ensures that riders can enjoy longer journeys without constant refueling, making the Spider RL-125 as practical as it is fun. **

Pros

  • Lightweight and Agile: At only 125 kg, the RL-125 is incredibly nimble, perfect for new riders and those seeking a responsive ride.
  • Sporty Aesthetics: The striking design and color options make it an eye-catching choice in the sport motorcycle segment.
  • User-Friendly Features: With electric start and a comfortable seat height, the bike is approachable for riders of all experience levels.

Cons

  • Limited Power Output: With just over 10 horsepower, experienced riders may find the engine performance lacking on highways or during aggressive riding.
  • Basic Suspension Setup: The conventional front fork may not offer the advanced handling characteristics found in higher-end sportbikes.
  • Single Cylinder Vibration: The single-cylinder engine can produce noticeable vibrations at higher RPMs, which may detract from comfort on longer rides.
