LEARNER LEGAL LOON
With the GSX-R125 being so track, has Suzuki done enough with its naked GSX-S125 variant to claim the crown for the streets?
WORDS: CARL ‘PRETTYBOY’ STEVENSPICS: DOUBLE RED
SUZUKI GSX-S125
It’ll bring out your inner yob.
The GSX-S in its natural habitat.
As if it wasn’t enough that Suzuki launched an absolute blinder of a mini sportsbike, they’ve also dropped the fairings, stuck some higher bars on and applied the same class leading specifications to create the ultimate baby naked, which we got to thrash around the sedate roads of sunny Hampshire.
Following in the footsteps of its racier brother, the GSX-S125 really does look a treat at first glance with its aggressive styling and super naked-style stance. It has the same attention to detail as the Gixer, and shares most of the same components, yet having raised the handlebars by 100mm the riding position feels completely different; even though the seating and footrest positions have remained in the exact same locations.
