Where are you in the country? I ask because different places have different amounts of problems with #bikelife stealing anything that's got two wheels. 
The best anti theft device is a more desirable bike that's got very poor security parked right next to your bike when your bike is locked up with a big old Almax chain.  |

Depends where though, right? Unfortunately our resident Scotsman has vanished off the face of the earth, but I might be missing another member who knows more about that area than I do. Glasgow, for example, seems to be reported as high on crime.
On a small bike I'd say a 13 mm pragmasis for out and about and a 16 mm for at home, or a 19 mm if you can fit the links through the underside frame grab rail (if it has one). I wouldn't have carried anything heavier than a 13 mm on my 125 simply because it was too under powered as it was, and that too was a Lexmoto.
For a 125 you'd only really need the smallest of spaces, the Lexmoto website should give you the specs and so you can work around that. Of course it then depends if you'd also want to work on the bike in that shed or not, and then you'd need something more. Depends on how much space you've got and if the ground is level.
Always secure it to something, so plan your shed with a ground anchor. Secure it to something when out and about and put a chain through the rear wheel and underside grab rail if you can't, with the bike on a centre stand (if it has one); or over the seat and through the wheel on the stand.
Disc lock on the rear and front, anyone can pick up the front of a 125 and wheel it off or into a van etc because they're so lightweight.
