In this week’s MCN (January 3, 2008) we brought you the first look at Suzuki’s new GSX-R125, which will be unveiled later this year.
The new water-cooled motorcycle will mimic the style and design of the rest of the GSX-R family, but with learner legal power and an easier ride.
The motorcycle is already complete – the design team are currently deciding on the final colour scheme, ready for launch in the second half of 2008.
The GSX-R125 will face stiff competition when it arrives in the UK – the four-stroke learner sports market is booming, with more machines going on sale in 2008.
Here’s a rundown of what the GSX-R125 will have to beat.
Honda CBR125R
The Honda CBR125R is undoubtedly the class leader. The tiny Honda has been the outright top-selling motorcycle in the UK, not just the biggest selling 125.
The 14bhp single is easy to ride, well put together, cheap to buy and insure but is also an absolute hoot – even experienced riders can enjoy the simple charms of the Honda.
