The Suzuki GS 125E's four stroke single cylinder motor is virtually bulletproof, but makes a claimed 12 hp eventually. Relatively roomy seat, tiny nose fairing and a digital gear indicator on later model Suzuki GS 125E`s are the main highlights, on what is otherwise a basic, no-frills mode of transport. The Suzuki GS 125E does have a centrestand however, which some 125cc custom/commuters lack.

Overview[edit | edit source]

If you want to get to work, carry a butty box and do it all on about 69p per day, then the Suzuki GS125ES is for you. It's about as exciting as cold porridge, but like the Honda C90, or Kawasaki KH125, the Suzuki GS125ES simply provides basic two wheeled transport and costs peanuts to run. The Suzuki GS125ES's four stroke single cylinder motor is virtually bulletproof, but makes a claimed 12bhp... eventually. A five speed gearbox lets what power there is get you to a cruising speed of about 55mph, although the Suzuki GS125ES will buzz its merry way to about 65mph on a good day. Basic suspension and skinny wheels, with later Suzuki GS125ES models featuring cast alloy items, offer a slightly bouncy but competent ride. Probably more rebound in the beefy dualseat than the Suzuki GS125ES's twin rear shocks to be honest...
