Zontes GK 125

1. The Zontes G1 125 almost the maximum limit for the B or A1 license). It is a liquid-cooled engine, powered by electronic injection developed by Bosch, cylinder head with double overhead camshaft (DOHC) and 4 valves, and six-speed gearbox. In this displacement, the addition of the anti-rebound clutch stands out, which allows sudden reductions with greater safety, without a doubt, very sporting ambitions. The G1 125 has a monoshock with adjustable spring preload and a quality inverted fork is mounted on the front axle. Both brakes are disc and it also has two-channel Bosch ABS as standard. The instrument panel is an editable LCD screen with a large amount of information, with graphic lap counter, fuel level, gear indicator, engine temperature, hour clock, voltmeter, total and trip odometer and chosen operating map: sport (S ) or economical (E) selectable. An excellent option for those looking for a well-equipped naked 125 at an unbeatable price. Technical characteristics

1. ZONTES G1 125: Scrambler with cutting-edge technology and 'vintage' touches Having just begun the peaceful invasion of ZONTES in the 125 cc segment with the sophisticated U 125 sports naked, we have this second G1 -125 model aimed at those who look for 'neo-retro' motorcycles as their vehicle for commuting daily in the city and enjoy weekend routes (with the 20 liter tank) not only on asphalt but also on forest tracks, with Scrambler style, exceptional equipment highlighting its standard Bosch ABS, a 14.6 HP engine that It will not disappoint with technology and performance, and a very attractive price: €3,195 (VAT included). This model will be available in the first half of September as the U 125. After making itself known in the medium displacements with a range of vehicles in all specialties with the common denominator of a sophisticated 310 cc engine, ZONTES returns to the fray by debuting in the 125 cc light motorcycle segment, the most popular of the market with a share of almost 60% due to its facilities for driving with the A1 license from the age of 16, or directly, without any additional procedure or fee, with the car license. The first model with which the brand has debuted has been with the naked sports U 125, a large-scale motorcycle with an attractive and aggressive design, equipped with very complete equipment and driven by a mechanical jewel of its own development that elevates the technological level at its highest level with the aim of offering the best performance in the “eighth of a liter”.

With the U 125, the G1 shares the same robust simple cradle frame with a striking cast aluminum swingarm with visible ribs and which is asymmetrical, adopting a curved or “banana” shape on the right side to save the exit. of his short escape. A monoshock adjustable in spring preload is fixed to this swingarm, while a robust inverted fork is used in the front axle. When it comes to braking, ZONTES does not skimp by using large diameter disc brakes with a two-channel Bosch ABS system as standard equipment.

1. The new G1 will be offered in September at a launch price of €3,195 and can be chosen in black and yellow. In addition, the promotion of free third-party insurance is accepted until 11/30/2020.

2. How the ZONTES G1 125 was made Tayo Motorcycle Technology, the group to which ZONTES belongs, put two teams of R&D engineers to work at the same time on the development of the U 125 sports naked and this Scrambler G1 125, while another third team focused on the creation of the engine by thoroughly analyzing and studying all the mechanics available on the market with the intention of achieving the most technologically advanced engine. The first steps in shaping the G1 began with the designers' sketches in which they gave free rein to their imagination. As it is a neo-retro model, touches of classicism were sought mixed with brushstrokes more typical of the 21st century, achieving a well-deserved contrast. Of this first group of details, the spoked wheels could not be missing for two reasons: to give that 'retro' image and to provide the necessary elasticity for the all-terrain use that a Scrambler provides. The round headlight brings back memories of the past, even though its interior is illuminated by LED spotlights. Compared to the sharp edges of the U design, the G1 is characterized by using a tank with soft rounded contours that is completed with a thin and flat two-level seat. The rear part follows conventional schemes with a minimalist fender that emerges under the rear end of the seat, continuing the sides that channel air to the radiator towards the keel that hides the underside of the engine and the exhaust manifold. An element that integrates perfectly into the design of the G1 are the protection bars, they are not too bulky and have a stop at the top that receives the blows in falls, protecting the integrity of the rest of the motorcycle. 

1. Once R&D has ready the swingarm-frame common to both models, the design team dresses it with a full-scale “suit” in 'clay', a special clay that can be molded to correct its shapes for specific reasons. aesthetic or ergonomic. The G1 that we see in 'clay' differs a little more from the definitive model, for example, the shapes of the tank are less rounded, the front part of the seat is part of the tank design, a fender attached to the wheel was proposed, although without support for license plates or indicators, the front fender forms a single piece with the brake disc protector, and the spokes of the rims are fixed to tabs to be able to use tubeless tires.

Thus, everything was ready in mid-2019 to roll with the first pre-series prototypes and be able to correct any anomalies reported by the testers, first with air-cooled thrusters to move on to the final liquid-cooled ones once their development and testing was completed. bench resistance.
