A little sportswoman looks majestically in her retro … The GSX-R line has known everything in circuit sport, everything won, everything cashed. From the most beautiful victories to bitter disappointments, passing through shameful speeds or moments of doubt, the ‘Gex’ has survived the years until its name becomes almost legendary.. After having explored many displacement, from the 50 cm3 to the 1340 Hayabusa, and especially in 750 cm3, Suzuki now declines it in a 125 cm3 configuration. Finally a little sports car for young people with the famous red R.
The GSX-R 125, it’s been quite a few years that we hear its shadow in the corridor of rumors. The echoes leaked but the builder didn’t say a word. Until the machine officially shows itself, surprising observers and immediately positioning itself as a machine to be reckoned with. This arrival must be done by imposing respect from the outset. Suzuki announces that its small GSX-R will have an excellent power-to-weight ratio. Her silhouette makes you believe it without batting an eyelid: with her feline allure, her design finely incorporating the GSX-R codes, her appealing facies, the youngest of Gex can proudly pose next to her big sisters.
Sporty, certainly, but not as much as some more virulent productions. For example, we do not find an inverted fork or radial caliper as on the Aprilia RS 125. Here, a conventional fork, an axial jaw and a brake disc per wheel. With ABS as standard. Enough to contain the power of the engine without worry. Suzuki did not do it in the flash but in the efficient. A classic and modern 4-stroke single-cylinder, with 4 valves, injection, dual ACT and liquid cooling will take care of the overall velocity. In view of the legislation, 15 horses are riding at the exit. To make a difference, Suz announces that its 125 has the smallest frontal area in the category, and that the fairings are lighter than those used by the competition. What to offer better acceleration and reduced consumption.
In addition to its incisive and engaging line, the 125 GSX-R makes a point of being distinguished by various elements. By detailing it, we discover that its brake discs are petaled, that the exhaust breathes through two outlets at the mouthpiece, that the lights are LED, that the all digital instrumentation takes (in simplified) the style of the last 1000 and, surprisingly refined, that the bike starts without a key.
Well, there is a key. But with contactless technology, like on the Kawasaki 1400 GTR or the big BMWs. Just have it in your pocket, turn the switch ‘and a simple pressure of the right thumb is enough to shake the mono. With the Suzuki Easy Start System, the starter remains engaged until the engine cranks.
Alongside the CBR 125, YZF-R 125, Aprilia RS 125 and KTM RC 125, the category will have to count with this new player, crowned with a prestigious name.
