The Puch M125 was manufactured by Steyr-Daimler-Puch A.G. of Graz, Austria, between 1966 and 1971. First frame/engine number was 3 600 101.
The M125 was also sold in North America by the U.S. mail-order company, Sears, Roebuck & Co., as the Sears Lightweight Motorcycle (SR125). This machine had Sears tank badges and 'Sears' written across the back of the seat and appears to have the same specification as UK models. A De-Luxe version, having a sportier appearance and battery lighting but mechanically identical, was produced between 1969 and 1971. This was designated M125S (for Sport) in the U.K.
A tuned version of the engine was also used in the original Dalesman motorcycles built in Otley, West Yorkshire, but was later replaced by a 6-speed Sachs engine.
