The 1967 version was a complete street version with low swept exhaust, street fenders, street handlebars and seat. It was a totally different bike from the '''T125 Stinger''', introduced a couple of years later. Unlike the Stinger, styled like a competition bike, the original T125 looked more like the other bikes of the Suzuki T series, the [[Suzuki T20 Super Six (X6 Hustler)]] being the most famous of them.

The '''T125 Stinger''' was introduced for 1969 and looked very sporty with its slim fuel tank and high-drawn exhaust pipes. Unfortunately the Stinger wasn't as fast on the track as it looked. Especially the brakes and the soft suspension were not as good as some other 125cc bikes from the period.
