  • Here is part 1 • Suzuki GN125 Review, M...
    This video is to show in English the Suzuki GN125.
    I will give general maintenance, review and overview for the bike.
    I also forgot to say it will run smoother as the engine and carburetor heat up. Should be left to warm up for around 2-5 minutes
    It was oil filter not air filter , i would change around twice a year on this bike to keep the maintenance low and engine happy
    Any questions feel free to ask.

    I never thought of using the trip gauge as a fuel indicator. Maybe thats what they are for XD. Thanks mate.

      Yeah once it goes past the 300 mark is usually when the reserve is needed

      yeah they are great bike for the town and country lanes, even when you get the bigger bikes you still miss the GN, at least in my case.

    Hey, is it comfortable to ride, even after a while? planning to get this bike, wanna do a couple of tours so comfort is pretty important for me.

    • @davidkavanagh4966
      @davidkavanagh4966  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Very comfortable to ride as long as you keep it under 90kph as it gets very uncomfortable with the high revving engine makes lots of vibrations. Feels like you are damaging the engine being as such high revs

      Yes it's better than most as the seat is long enough for two, there is a grab handle and it's very low and lightweight

      If maintenance has been kept up properly carburetor needs tuning. If anything do a compression check first.
