Suzuki Ue125 Saluto
The Suzuki Ue125 Saluto has a top speed of Approximately 95 km/h (estimated), produces 8.7 hp and weighs 114 kg. Motoryk rates it 6.5/10.
De Suzuki Saluto UE125 werd rond 2016 in India geïntroduceerd als een samenwerking tussen Suzuki Motorcycle India en is gepositioneerd als een retro-klassieke forens die zich richt op stadsrijders die op zoek zijn naar een stijlvolle maar praktische dagelijkse motorfiets. Het werd ontworpen om vintage stylingelementen te combineren met moderne functionaliteit voor woon-werkverkeer, waarmee het kan concurreren in het groeiende retrosegment van de Indiase markt. Het model viel op door zijn klassieke ronde koplamp, spaakwielen en chromen accenten, wat aantrekkelijk was voor rijders die een onderscheidend alternatief wilden voor standaard woon-werkfietsen.

Wat kopers moeten weten
Proven Reliable Engine
The Saluto 125 uses a simple air-cooled single-cylinder engine known for low maintenance needs and long service life with regular oil changes. It's a strong choice for daily commuters who want minimal workshop visits.
Watch Carburetor Condition
Used Saluto 125s can develop carburetor clogging issues, especially if stored or left idle for extended periods. Always check for rough idling or hard starting before purchasing a second-hand unit.
Steady Resale Value
The Saluto 125 holds reasonable resale value in Asian markets due to its Suzuki badge and fuel efficiency reputation. Its affordability and brand trust make it easier to sell compared to lesser-known budget commuters.
Beoordeling van gebruikte kopers
"A solid urban workhorse that rewards careful buying and regular maintenance."
$800-$1,800 usedThe UE125 Saluto is Suzuki's bread-and-butter commuter, and honestly it delivers exactly what it promises — nothing more, nothing less. The 124cc single is smooth and reliable if previous owners haven't thrashed it, but check the air filter and oil service history religiously because neglected examples get rattly fast. The carburetor can gum up if the bike's been sitting, so budget for a clean straight away. Riding it daily around town, the Saluto is genuinely pleasant. Fuel economy is impressive, the seat is surprisingly comfortable for short hops, and parts availability keeps running costs sensible. Don't expect motorway capability — it'll cruise at 80kph comfortably but starts protesting beyond that. The drum brakes are adequate for city work but feel wooden in wet conditions, so ride accordingly. Used examples between two and five years old are the sweet spot. Avoid anything with excessive chain slack, worn sprockets, or a harsh idle — these suggest poor maintenance habits that usually run deeper than what's visible.
