    This is THE best 125 for me. Amazing suspension, amazing grip, power is good for an 125, I also loved the seating position which is a little aggressive but not tiring... It is simply an awesome starter bike

    Lads don't be afraid to buy this bike. I've traded my 650 dl for this because I was using it mostly for commuting and doing speed limits on motorways, and gsx s125 will do exactly that except it will be much cheaper and more convenient. This bike still feels torque'y even in 5th gear, you will be able to overtake anything that maintains speed.
    Sitting position is comfortable for long trips yet puts you in slight aggressive lean keeping you sharp and not wanting to take a nap like on sport tourers. Brakes on this thing are ridiculously good, ABS is very difficult to trigger and even if so, pulsing is easily noticeable yet very gentle and not intimidating.
    Seat is very low, great for people who are not flexible yet mounting this thing gives lots of pleasure as straigh away it puts you in position, my dl 650 was making me have to adjust myself. On gsx s125 you literally hop on, turn it with easy start and ride off, it takes 5 seconds if you're in a rush.
    Screen is very easy to read, Informative and there is no glare, not once had a problem seeing reading.
    Sound is best around in 125cc class. When in neutral this thing doesn't sound like 125, more like 400cc with deeper sound. This bikes does not sound like a scooter or "fart" machine. It's whiny at higher revs but in a good way, engine will scream in a pleasurable way letting you know it can handle much more if you want more revs. It's so light that you can jog with it in full gear and don't break a sweat, it's weight is not intimidating at all. Super easy to clean as engine cover doesn't have that many crevasses and gaps, and all fairings are such that one swipe with a cloth will leave them shiny.
    This was a very good choice I've made, This bike will let you commute extremely fast, will let you do weekend trips and will keep up with other vehicles on motorway, being able to go to 120-130 kmph if it's not windy and you're willing to lay your chest on the tank.

    Ridden one for 7.5k miles now, city and country riding. The ABS light doesnt engage but theres very slight judder in the pedal on the rear which comes on. ABS does get confused with white lines so does lock up sometimes if travelling over them. The RPM shift light can be turned on to the specified RPM if wanted. Its bright white and can be set to flashing or static... personally its very irritating so i leave it off (especially night riding). The handling is the best ive had so far, i can throw this around in traffic and still maintain stability in semi-strong side wind. The display is also very decent in the fact that at a quick glance i know my RPM, gear and my speed within a fraction of a second. 2 trip timers.... nothing to brag about. I really cant vouch for this as a beginner bike enough. Hopefully will be taking my test when I get the time, but still think id use this every day for my commute. Wouldnt swap it for anything else.

    I'm 6"5 and just traded in my very broken adrenaline for a red gsx s. It looks tiny with me on it but like you said it feels completely fine. The gsx is soooo much fun. Especially on corners. The only reason why I went for a gsx over another beloved adrenaline is because I now am commuting over an hour a day and lexmoto parts aren't always easy to get. Suzuki have parts basically everywhere. When I get a car I will defo get another adrenaline just for fun. But yeah the gsxs is a really fun little bike. Trust me the power shows when you get ham fisted. Give a broken in gsxs a try!

    Excellent review. It might be the case that the ABS light only comes on when a *fault* is detected with the ABS system, which it why it comes on *and then goes off* when the ignition is turned on (system check) - it may not come on simply to show that the ABS has kicked in (yo).

      From what I have been told, The ABS lights are always on until you go over 6mph, On light, ABS inactive basically (counter-intuitive much?) After all, if its active under those speeds you'll never fully pull to a stop. Once you're over 6mph the light go off to state it is active and working, should it flash at any time, take it in to be serviced and looked at as it may have developed a fault. I'm not sure if Suzuki followed suit in this, however! But that what the tech guys at Honda told me

    Hey Spicy! If you're looking for a Big bike feel, You should check out the new Honda CB125R. I've just got one of these and I can honestly say, It's the closest thing a 125 owner can get to having a 300cc bike. Wide rear tyre, all the mod cons of the bigger bikes, awesome sounding stock exhaust and a bunch of others! I was going to wait for the Suzuki gsx 125 But when I saw the Hondas new baby, I just had too!
    It gets ALOT of appeal, And should you somehow 'lose' your L plates. That rear tyre doesn't give it away that you're on a small capacity bike

      If you mean higher then a 125, then Yes, I own a CBR250R which is my Weekend bike. I commute on a 125 out of the fact they are fantastic in scooting through the heavy fields of traffic I contend with on a daily basis. Anything higher? nope! So my experience of high capacity bikes is limited! Probably a bad comparison to be fair. However, I stand by my opinion. The new CB125 handles in a very similar way to my 250. It uses the same size frame, wheels and tyres as its 300cc sister, Just the smaller engine!

    i bought the GSXR version of this bike, and i gotta say i'm really impressed with myself so far. dunno why he was only able to get it up 65mph, i've managed to get 75 -76 mph outta mine on a A class road, now bear in mind my fat arse weighs around 18 stone and on top of that i have to carry all my chains and locks in my backpack, i reckon if i didnt need to carry my backpack chains and locks i could easily get this upto 80mph.

    Running-In is not a "myth" if you want to (a) retain your warranty and (b) prolong the life of the engine. It IS a myth that you can thrash the hell out of a brand new engine and achieve (a) + (b); the difference now, in the present day, is that you wont see visible damage if you do thrash a new engine eg: oil leaks, cracked casings etc etc.

      @clivecartey 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@spicy110 the answer is in your statement.
      By the way, this is what Suzuki actually does.......
      "...... it takes about 90 minutes to assemble a complete engine. Once the engine is complete, oil is added and it moves to a machine that spins the engine at about 1,000 rpm through the countershaft. This works all of the internal components and circulates the oil, while at the same time a worker inspects the engine for leaks. The engine is then put into a special crate and delivered to the assembly plant......"
      The engine is then placed under a Manufacturers Warranty. So its hardly the same as the thrashing of a new motorcycle engine for You Tube ratings.

      How does the motorcycle license work in the US? In the UK we have a weird progressive license system that restricts us to certain bikes until we get a full license (CBT/a1: 125cc, a2: 500cc/47hp max, a: full license). It's also age restricted, you can't do your full a license until you're 24, and can only ride up to a 125 if you're younger than 19.
      Because of this, 125s are really popular obviously for the younger motorcyclists.

    It is about time ABS was employed to all learner bikes as this, in my opinion, is where this technology should be implemented and for the love of GOD why is there an anti-wheelie gizmo on the latest CBR 1000RR I GIVE UP.

    I always thought that whomever made your licensing laws must not be a rider themselves. I would ride a 125 but to be honest i find them riskier on the road than the bikes 200 to 400cc range because you can’t get out of anyones way if you have to be on the highway. They would have been better off having a bit more motor with a governer for newer riders so you can pass just slightly better or even just not have newer riders go on faster highways with a 125 because a small bike on a congested highway can be terrifying to a new rider. Decades ago i started on a 125 but I have rural slower highways so it wasnt as big of a deal. But i never would have tried a freeway on it purposedly

    • @ndperson1

      Basically there is a few reasons but one yes it's a left over from the past when tolerances were not as good. (Keeping in mind every engine will be bench tested so run to high revs for a while before you buy it) also legal issues if they tell someone to just go for it yer the engine might be fine but brakes and tyres etc aren't scrubbed in people might try to blame them for a crash.
