Overview
Product Description
Small Wheel 14"/12" Model
This listing is specifically for the 14-inch front and 12-inch rear Small Wheel FX125 with a 28.1-inch seat height. It is not the taller 17"/14" Big Wheel model. Choose by rider fit before choosing Basic or Pro.
Important Shipping Information
$399 fixed LTL freight shipping per bike applies to eligible addresses in the contiguous United States. Delivery is curbside and requires a scheduled appointment. California, Alaska, Hawaii, U.S. territories, APO/FPO addresses, and international destinations are not eligible.
The FRP Moto FX125 Small Wheel combines a lower, more manageable riding position with a genuine 125cc engine and four-speed manual clutch.
With a 28.1-inch seat height, approximately 150-pound net weight, and 14-inch front/12-inch rear wheel package, this version is designed for shorter riders who want easier ground reach and more confidence at stops. It uses the same manufacturer-rated 8.7-horsepower Zongshen engine, four-speed manual transmission, electric start, kick-start backup, and 265-pound maximum load rating as the taller FX125.
The Small Wheel configuration is easier to maneuver through tighter riding areas and easier for an appropriately sized rider to stabilize at low speeds. It is still a powerful manual-clutch motorcycle with a manufacturer-rated top speed of approximately 56 mph. It should not be treated as a child’s toy or a first powered vehicle for an untrained rider.
Why Choose the FX125 Small Wheel?
- Lower 28.1-inch seat: Easier ground reach for shorter riders and riders developing confidence with low-speed balance and clutch control.
- 14-inch front and 12-inch rear wheels: A compact, responsive wheel package suited to tighter riding areas and relatively mild off-road terrain.
- Zongshen 125cc four-stroke engine: Air-cooled power with no need to mix engine oil into the gasoline.
- Four-speed manual clutch: A true wet multi-plate clutch teaches clutch engagement, shifting, downshifting, and engine braking.
- Electric and kick start: Convenient electric starting with a mechanical kick-start backup.
- Hydraulic disc brakes: Front and rear hydraulic disc brakes provide controlled stopping performance.
- Single-piston brake calipers: The Small Wheel configuration uses a single-piston front caliper and single-piston rear caliper.
- Front and rear suspension: Telescopic front suspension and a 260 mm rear shock help manage appropriate off-road terrain.
- #420 chain drive: The Small Wheel model uses a #420 drive chain.
- Basic or Pro trim: Choose the core riding package or add adjustable controls, a digital dashboard, headlight, and adjustable rear suspension.
- Red or white: Both trim levels are offered in two color choices.

Which trim should you choose? Choose Basic if you want the lowest-cost Small Wheel FX125 and do not need a dashboard, headlight, adjustable levers, or adjustable rear shock. Choose Pro if those rider-interface and suspension upgrades are worth the additional $100.
Headlight notice: The Pro headlight improves visibility, but it does not make the FX125 street legal. The FX125 remains an off-road-only motorcycle.
Small Wheel vs. Big Wheel
| Specification | 14"/12" Small Wheel | 17"/14" Big Wheel |
|---|---|---|
| Seat Height | 28.1" | 33.9" |
| Ground Clearance | 11.8" | 13.2" |
| Net Weight | Approximately 150 lb | Approximately 163.9 lb |
| Rear Shock | 260 mm | 310 mm |
| Front Caliper | Single-piston hydraulic | Dual-piston hydraulic |
| Drive Chain | #420 | #428 |
| Ride Character | Lower, more responsive, easier ground reach | Taller, more stable, better obstacle rollover |
| Best Fit | Shorter riders and riders prioritizing low-speed confidence | Taller riders and rougher terrain |
Both wheel configurations use the same 125cc engine, four-speed manual clutch, electric and kick starting systems, approximate 56 mph manufacturer speed rating, and 265-pound maximum load. The wheel-size decision is about rider fit and terrain—not additional engine power.
Who Is the Small Wheel FX125 For?
The Small Wheel FX125 is designed for a properly sized rider who wants a lower seat but is ready to operate a true manual clutch. It can fit shorter adults as well as experienced, physically capable teen riders. The official owner’s manual recommends the FX125 for riders 16 years of age or older.
Age and height estimates are only starting points. Before purchasing, confirm that the rider can:
- Comfortably reach the ground from the 28.1-inch seat.
- Hold up and control an approximately 150-pound motorcycle.
- Reach and operate the throttle, clutch lever, front brake, rear brake, shifter, and engine-stop controls.
- Understand clutch engagement and coordinated shifting.
- Judge speed, distance, obstacles, and changing terrain.
- Maintain good balance, coordination, physical strength, and judgment.
- Operate within the 265-pound maximum load, including the rider and riding gear.
A rider does not necessarily need to place both feet completely flat, but must be able to establish stable footing at a stop. Riders who feel cramped on the 28.1-inch seat should consider the 17"/14" Big Wheel version.

Specification notice: FRP does not currently publish the Small Wheel wheelbase, assembled overall dimensions, exact tire sizes, tire pressures, or oil capacity on its retail product page. Confirm those specifications using the manual and labels supplied with the delivered motorcycle. Do not use the 17"/14" Big Wheel measurements when ordering Small Wheel tires, tubes, wheels, suspension parts, or model-specific accessories.
What Is Included?
- FRP Moto FX125 14"/12" Small Wheel dirt bike in the selected trim and color
- Owner’s manual
- Manufacturer-supplied basic setup tools
Promotional-accessory notice: Gloves, goggles, anti-fog spray, backpacks, hydration systems, carry bags, free gifts, and other promotional accessories shown on FRP’s direct website are not included unless GoPowerSports specifically identifies them as included with this listing.
Assembly and First-Ride Preparation
The FX125 ships partially assembled in a freight crate. FRP estimates approximately 30–45 minutes for basic setup, but actual assembly time depends on mechanical experience. Final assembly, adjustment, fluid verification, and a complete pre-delivery inspection are required before operation.
GoPowerSports strongly recommends final assembly and inspection by a qualified powersports technician. Before the first start and before every ride:
- Read and understand the owner’s manual and every warning label.
- Verify that the motorcycle received is the 14"/12" Small Wheel configuration ordered.
- Confirm the engine-oil level and correct oil type before starting. Never assume the motorcycle contains the correct amount of oil when uncrated.
- Inspect the fuel system and check for fuel or oil leaks.
- Confirm that the wheels, axles, spokes, handlebars, controls, suspension, brakes, chain, guards, and all accessible fasteners are properly installed and secure.
- Check that the throttle moves smoothly and snaps completely closed at every steering position.
- Verify clutch free play and smooth clutch engagement.
- Test the front and rear brakes and verify the brake-fluid levels.
- Inspect both tires and tubes for damage and set cold pressure according to the tire sidewall and documentation supplied with the Small Wheel motorcycle.
- Inspect chain condition, alignment, lubrication, and slack.
- Complete the manufacturer’s break-in procedure before sustained high-rpm or high-load operation.
The owner’s manual recommends checking engine oil before every ride, changing engine oil approximately every 15 hours of riding, and servicing the air filter and drive chain more frequently in wet, muddy, or dusty conditions. Follow the latest manual supplied with the motorcycle if it differs from online documentation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this the Small Wheel or Big Wheel FX125?
This is the 14-inch front/12-inch rear Small Wheel model with a 28.1-inch seat height. It is not the 17"/14" Big Wheel model.
How tall is the Small Wheel FX125?
The Small Wheel version has a manufacturer-listed 28.1-inch seat height and 11.8 inches of ground clearance. Fit should be determined by the rider’s inseam, stable ground reach, strength, and ability to operate every control.
What is the difference between Basic and Pro?
Both trims have the same 125cc engine, four-speed manual transmission, wheel size, seat height, hydraulic brakes, and starting systems. Pro adds six-position adjustable hand levers, a full digital dashboard, a high/low-beam headlight, and an adjustable 260 mm rear shock.
How fast does the FX125 Small Wheel go?
FRP rates both FX125 wheel configurations for a top speed of approximately 56 mph. This is a manufacturer estimate, not a guaranteed operating speed. Rider weight, terrain, altitude, weather, maintenance, break-in, and other conditions affect actual performance.
Is the FX125 automatic?
No. It has a four-speed manual transmission with a hand-operated wet clutch. Riders must learn clutch engagement, shifting, downshifting, throttle coordination, and braking.
What age is the FX125 for?
The official owner’s manual recommends the motorcycle for riders age 16 or older. Age alone does not establish proper fit or readiness. Every rider must have sufficient size, strength, balance, coordination, maturity, training, and judgment.
Can an adult ride the Small Wheel version?
Yes, provided the rider fits comfortably and remains within the 265-pound maximum load. Shorter adults may prefer the 28.1-inch seat. Taller riders may feel cramped and should consider the 17"/14" Big Wheel model.
Does it have electric start?
Yes. Both Basic and Pro include electric start and a kick-start backup.
Does the Basic model have a headlight?
No. The high/low-beam headlight and digital dashboard are Pro features. A headlight does not make the Pro model street legal.
What gasoline does it use?
FRP’s current product page lists 87-octane or higher unleaded gasoline. The owner’s manual recommends 90-octane or higher for performance and reliability. Do not mix oil into the gasoline.
Is it street legal?
No. The FX125 is intended for off-road use only and does not conform to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards for public-road operation. Do not operate it on public streets, roads, highways, sidewalks, or bike lanes.
What warranty does it have?
Warranty and return eligibility for purchases from GoPowerSports are governed by the warranty and return terms posted by GoPowerSports. Improper assembly, neglected maintenance, accidents, misuse, racing, unauthorized modifications, and normal wear may not be covered. Contact GoPowerSports before purchase if you need confirmation of coverage for a particular component or use.
