2017 Suzuki GSX-R 125
Many manufacturers seem to be gunning for the small
bike market, especially in the quarter-litre and below class. In the 2016 Intermot show in Cologne,
Germany, Suzuki dropped the covers of the GSX-R 125, a
single-cylinder full-fairing sportsbike meant to take the fight to market leaders
such as the Yamaha YZF-R125 and Aprilia RS125.
Suzuki says the 2017 GSX-R 125 has “the best
power-to-weight ratio, torque-to-weight ratio, acceleration, handling and fuel
economy in the 125 class,” according to a Motorcycle News report. With a low
seat height that is designed to be rider friendly, the mini Gixxer comes with
an LED headlight, LCD instruments and keyless ignition.
Coming in three colours : white, black and Suzuki
Racing Blue, the GSX-R 125 looks to be a hit in the learner bike market, and
other places where 125 cc-class bikes rule the roads, such as Indonesia and
India. The 2017 Suzuki GSX-R 125 is set to hit markets sometime in the middle
of next year.
