The 2020 Suzuki GSX-R125 gets a new MotoGP
livery in Japan. The 125cc fully-faired motorcycle is now available in a total
of 4 colour options in the Land of the Rising Sun. Suzuki celebrated its 100th
anniversary on 15 March 2020. To commemorate that, it has given the 2020
GSX-R125 a new colour option which is based on the livery of the 2020 Suzuki
GSX-RR MotoGP race bike of Team Suzuki Ecstar. It features an attractive blue and
silver colour combination and has a cleaner and sober look. It should appeal to
many enthusiasts and MotoGP fans. Apart from the MotoGP livery, no other
changes have been made in the motorcycle.
The Suzuki GSX-R125 is the smallest
capacity motorcycle in the company’s GSX-R series of bikes. It is powered by a
124cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine which features a DOHC setup and
advanced fuel-injection system. This powerhouse is capable of producing 15 PS
of max power at 10,000 rpm and 11 Nm of peak torque at 8,000 rpm. The
transmission here is a 6-speed unit.
Since the GSX-R125 draws inspiration from
its elder siblings, it features similar styling cues. For example, the
fantastic-looking LED taillamp is identical to those of the bigger capacity
Gixxer bikes. The clip-on handlebars provide somewhat lean-forward riding
position. The motorcycle also comes equipped with a fully-digital instrument
cluster that shows a plethora of information including a gear position
indicator.
Suzuki isn’t charging anything extra for
the new MotoGP livery of the 2020 GSX-R125. Just like the other 3 colour
options - Triton Blue Metallic, Brilliant White, and Titan Black - it also
costs JPY 393,800. The 2020 Suzuki GSX-R125 in
its new MotoGP livery will be launched in Japan in the first week of July.
