Suzuki Ts125r
The Suzuki Ts125r has a top speed of 105 km/h (estimated), produces 17 hp and weighs 104 kg. Motoryk rates it 7/10.
De Suzuki TS125R werd in 1989 geïntroduceerd als trail/enduro-motorfiets, als opvolger van de eerdere TS125-serie die dateert uit de jaren 70. Het had een vloeistofgekoelde tweetaktmotor met één cilinder, een modernisering ten opzichte van zijn luchtgekoelde voorgangers, en was bedoeld voor offroad- en dualsportrijders op instapniveau. Het model was populair op de Europese en Australische markten van begin tot midden jaren negentig, voordat strengere emissievoorschriften begonnen met het geleidelijk uitbannen van tweetaktmachines die legaal zijn op straat.

Wat kopers moeten weten
Simple, Reliable Engine
The TS125R uses a straightforward air-cooled 2-stroke single-cylinder engine that is easy and cheap to maintain. Parts are widely available, making DIY repairs very accessible for owners.
Watch the Top End
2-stroke engines require periodic piston and ring replacements — always check compression before buying and ask about the last top-end rebuild. A neglected top end can lead to costly repairs quickly.
Affordable Resale Market
The TS125R holds modest but stable resale value as a popular beginner and trail bike, especially when well-maintained. Clean, low-hours examples tend to sell faster and command a small premium.
Generaties en specificaties per jaar
Trailbike van één generatie; 124cc tweetaktversnellingsbak met 6 versnellingen, monoshock-achtervering tijdens de hele productierun.
"Eerlijke trailtool die geduldige, mechanische rijders beloont."
De TS125R is een no-nonsense tweetakt die zijn vermogensbereik rond de 6.000 tpm haalt en zich plotseling twee keer zo gewillig voelt — daaronder is hij laf op steile beklimmingen en je leert constant met de zesversnellingsbak te werken om hem te laten zingen. Dat gewicht op nat wegdek van 101 kg is echt licht in de lucht, en de monoshock kan matig trailmisbruik zonder drama aan, hoewel het snel vaag wordt als je op rotsachtig, technisch terrein rijdt. Sproeien is lastig bij koud weer, de powervalve moet om de paar duizend kilometer worden schoongemaakt, anders raak je de bovenkant helemaal kwijt, en de beschikbaarheid van onderdelen is in de loop der jaren alleen maar moeilijker geworden. Maar voor een goedkope trailrijder die het niet erg vindt om zijn handen vuil te maken, is dit ding eerlijk, herbouwbaar en verrassend leuk op een smal bospad.

Beoordeling van gebruikte kopers
"A rewarding trail tool if you buy one with verifiable history."
$800-$2,500 usedThe TS125R is one of those bikes that punches well above its weight on tight woodland trails and green lanes, but you need to go in with realistic expectations. It's a proper two-stroke trail bike from an era when Suzuki still knew how to build them right — lightweight, flickable, and genuinely fun when it's running well. That last caveat matters, because find a neglected one and you're buying someone else's headache. Check the powervalve obsessively. These things clog up with carbon deposits if the previous owner ran cheap two-stroke oil or left it sitting, and a seized powervalve turns a responsive engine into a gutless slug. Inspect the expansion chamber for dents and rust, and budget for a fresh top end if you can't verify service history. Reeds and seals are cheap, but labour adds up fast.
