Suzuki 125 GN 1986 - Motorcycle specifications, reviews

presentation of the 125 GN 1986

the GN has been around for a long time, and is the ultimate urban utility vehicle, taking on the Yamaha SR in this motorcycle-work-sleep terrain. The price is aggressive, without skimping on equipment. The GN offers a rev counter, electric starter, disc brake, and a particularly sober mono. But that doesn't stop it from being efficient. Easy to drive, the GN is a pleasure to drive around town. Simplicity, efficiency and user-friendliness are its hallmarks.

Pipoukloif Model 1990

Hello,

i have the opportunity to buy a small 1990 Suzuki GN with 25000km on the odometer
This will be my first motorcycle

Do you know how many kilometers one can expect to do with this engine?
It has always been well maintained apparently

Thanks a lot! 10/04/2022 14:02 Rating : 5/5 Respond to Pipoukloif

nel Model 1998

at the dawn of my sixties I've had a lot of bikes, I've done cross-country, trials and track, so I'm not really a beginner, and I bought this light bike for camping, and well, I'm delighted with this all-rounder that's frugal and a lot of fun going downhill. It sits easily and the braking is there, so I highly recommend it, and I can't find any faults with it other than a tendency to rust. 08/07/2022 17:45 Rating : 5/5 Respond to nel

Corail74 Model 1989

I've owned this bike for a couple of years now. There's nothing to complain about, it's ideal for the Paris region, for threading its way through our autophobic cities, as well as for the fast lanes. On the freeway, it will struggle to keep up with 100km/h, but that's not its role...
And this sparrow's appetite in a context of expensive petrol is perfect :) 08/27/2021 20:52 Rating : 5/5 Respond to Corail74

Keoinj357 Model 1997

Hello everyone. I've just picked up a '97 Suzuki GN 125 that hasn't been run in about 9 years. The preparation is going well but I have a question that's bothering me - what fuel should I put in the tank? Thanks for your answers 10/05/2016 11:02 Rating : 5/5 Respond to Keoinj357

Yffic Narbonne

Hello,

Ideally, you should use SP98. Otherwise SP95, but definitely not E10!
