3. Abstract
一部有不錯的配備與操控性運動型 125C.C. 擋車,但過於膨脹的售價令人卻
步。酷龍必須降低售價以提高年輕人購買慾望,並且反應出台灣製應有的價
格,否則年輕人寧願以同樣的價格,去購買 CBR125R 或者 YZF-R125。若你
已經買了酷龍或者在二手車市有價錢不錯的酷龍,總體來說,你擁有了一台不
錯的入門運動車款。
A very decent sporty 125 with great equipment and good handling that’s let
down by an inflated price tag. Those that need a cheap runaround will opt for a
Chinese-made budget equivalent, while performance obsessed young ‘uns will
go for the pricier CBR125R or a YZF-R125. If you find yourself in possession
of a KR Sport or can nab a good example for second-hand prices then you’ll
be the owner of a perfectly acceptable learner sports bike.

引擎
1.1 中文
在加速到 ∼88.51 km/h,此具氣冷四行程的引擎擁有還可接受的加速能力,
當在又平又長的路上此具引擎可拉到 ∼109.44 km/h 的尾速。此具引擎在加速
區域的輸出相當的平順且安靜。由於優異的檔位設計,在加速的過程中,不必
將轉速拉到接近紅線區,即可以得到足夠的動力。不同傳統的 125 機車,但酷
龍若稱為運動型的擋車,則有點不足。
1.2 英文
The air-cooled four-stroke is perfectly acceptable for a 125 and will have
you coasting along at 55mph with no problems, even getting up to an indicated
68mph with a long, flat straight. The power is quite flat, however, with very
even power and noise output throughout the rev range. Change gear without
nearly redlining the engine and you’ll find yourself in an underpowered dead
zone without much in the way of acceleration. Not untypical for a 125, but
slightly conflicting with the bike’s sporty appearance.

品質與可靠性
2.1 中文
輕鬆且安靜地加速到紅線區。任何的引擎都不適合將其逼至極限,如果你
不想提早耗損動力部件 (Moving parts)。離合器操作起來有點重,若想激烈點
操作的車友,可以改裝離合器。以此價格下,此擋風板與排氣管品質是很合理
的,但是請注意各個部分的壽命與外裝。不過光陽提供兩年的保固,確實可以
讓消費者安心。
2.2 英文
The bike’s easy to red-line as the engine noise doesn’t alter much in pitch
throughout the rev range. Banging against the limiter can’t be good for any
engine, so keep an eye on it if you don’t want to prematurely age the moving
parts. The gear selector can be a tad clunky as well, so may need replacing if
used too aggressively over time. The fairing and exhaust are fine for the price,
but are keep any eye for age and wear on relatively low-budget components.
Kymco offer a 2-yr warranty, which offers real peace of mind.

騎乘感受與操作感
3.1 中文
雖然酷龍的外型如同跑車一般,但是比你想像的騎乘姿勢更為直立,因此前
導流板 (front faring) 太低,將可能造成你的頭與肩膀有風泡泡 (wind-bubble)
撞在上面產生噪音等。從另外一面來看,這也讓騎士在高風阻下不願意飆高速
度,優點是較直立的騎乘姿勢帶給騎士更好的道路視野。操控性上而言,由於
車體輕巧便於操控,若想要迴轉 (U-turn) 時可以輕鬆達成。分離式手把的轉向
有點受限與造型簡單,像是 GPZ500,但這部分問題不大。在制動上你不想壓
在一個笨蛋上,所以你必須要掌握好煞車,在 125CC 級距上此制動應該是足夠
應付的。
3.2 英文
The KR Sport may have a circuit-bike appearance, but the riding position is
much more upright than you’d expect, making the front faring largely aesthetic
as your head and shoulders are far above any wind-bubble it might create. On
the plus side you’re unlikely to get up to speeds where wind resistance is
a problem and the comfortable up-high ride affords a good view of the road.
Steering is light and easy, and the low-weight of the bike inspires effortless U-
turns. The clip-on bars can feel a little obvious and restricted – like a mini
GPZ500 – but it’s no big problem. The Kymco-made brakes are adequate,
you won’t be stopping on a pin-head and you’ll generally have to grab a
handful, but for a 125 they’re pretty standard.

價格
4.1 中文
價格讓很多人打退購買它的念頭。這是因為只要 £1199.99 就可以買到
Lexmoto 的 XTR S 125。光陽的價格落在 Lexmoto XTR s 125 與 Honda CBR
125R (£3120) 之間。但它的價值沒有比 XTR s 還值錢 £1400,但比 CBR 125R
價格少個 530。在市場上它的價格,沒有什麼競爭力。
4.2 英文
The competition has undercut Kymco considerably. Lexmoto offer the sim-
ilar XTR S for just £1199.99. In terms of price as well as quality, the Kymco
lies in-between the Lexmoto and pricier Japanese options such as the Honda
CBR125R (£3120). What’s debateable is whether it’s worth the £2599. It’
s not £1400 better than the Lexmoto, but it is £520 worse than the Honda. A
little bit more competitiveness in the pricing would see this much more at home
in the market.

裝備
5.1 中文
模擬液晶儀錶板,模擬轉速指針式與數位時速非常清楚,這種配備在很多高
級車款也沒有大配。後座提供很好的握把與固定貨物的固定點。良好的角度的
後視鏡與兩種發動方式 —電發與踩發。
5.2 英文
The digital dash and nicely obvious analogue tacho are excellent and really
give the bike a touch of class. Digital fuel gauge, clock…there are many larger
and far more expensive bikes that forgo such touches. Pillion provision is good,
with a decent grab rail and good pegs which double up as bungee points. Well
angled mirrors and both kick and electric start round off a very pleasing package.
