Used Buyer Review

The Address 125 is Suzuki doing what Suzuki does best — building something reliable and utterly unexciting that'll outlast everything flashier in your garage. As a used buy, it's genuinely hard to fault. The fuel injection means cold starts are painless, the under-seat storage swallows a full-face helmet, and that 125cc single will cruise at 60mph without complaint. Used examples hold together well because the owners are typically commuters, not hooligans. That said, know what you're signing up for. The suspension is tuned for smooth Japanese tarmac, so UK potholes hit harder than they should. The rear drum brake is agricultural compared to modern disc-equipped rivals, and if you're over 5'10" you'll feel slightly folded. Check the CVT belt on anything over 10,000 miles — they're cheap to replace but previous owners frequently ignore them. Bodywork clips crack if it's been dropped, and these things do get dropped.
