1996 Suzuki GN125 review from United States of America
"It's reliable, light, slow, and stable... but did I mention slow?"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
Front fork seals leaked when I bought it, cheap fix.
Needed a new horn.
General comments?
This bike has been amazingly reliable. I've used it for more than it was intended for, riding it at 55-60 mph over a long period of time.
The bike also has no power. No wheelies, not even in first. Not a good commuting machine. Keeps up with city traffic okay, but even at 50 mph the bike begins to feel strained. Against the wind, 4th gear is required to maintain 55, putting it very close to the red-line. Despite this, I've never had any engine problems.
It's very light and can be driven by anyone. I've taught a few friends to ride on it without any problems. Acceleration is stable and controlled, but very slow.
