DOHC valve arrangement allows optimal positioning of the inlet and exhaust valves for better mechanical smoothness and more efficient combustion. The benefits can be felt in smooth, instantly available acceleration. And thanks to a 14-litre fuel tank, they can be enjoyed over long distances between fuel stops.

A large exhaust catalyzer is promoted by an O2-feedback system with fuel-injection arrangement.

Idle Speed Control (ISC) system ensures optimal idling under various conditions.
14-inch front wheel carries 260mm hydraulic dual disc brake, and rear wheel has a 210mm hydraulic disc brake for reliable control.

Telescopic 41mm inner-tube front forks with a generous 110mm of wheel travel, and motorcycle-style link-type monoshock absorber rear suspension has adjustable preload. The overall benefits are motorcycle levels of handling and exceptional maneuverability.

Abundant luggage space; huge 62-litre storage bay, large enough for two normal size full-face helmets or A3-size document case, and a smaller compartment for small personal items. Convenient swichable underseat lights to illuminate entire underseat area.

Front bodywork contains three lidded storage compartments; a large 10-litre compartment with a convenient DC power outlet for charging electric devices in the move and two smaller compartments above it.

Stepped dual seat for comfort and confidence. The rider’s backrest is adjustable in five 10mm increments at the press of a lever.

Cut-away footboards allow stop-start legwork without uncomfortable stretching.

Ignition switch has a tamper-resisting magnetic cover and incorporates Suzuki Advanced Immobilizer System (SAIS), a transponder-type transistorized digital computer-controlled immobilizer.

Security gate allows a chain lock to be passed through the bodywork around the frame and then around an immovable object.

The comprehensive and easy-to-read instrument binnacle incorporates a speedometer, a tachometer, an odometer, twin tripmeters, a clock, and indicators for the ambient temperature, average fuel consumption, fuel level, and coolant temperature.

Ignition switch fitted with a magnetic cover that opens only with correctly coded key for security.

Antilock Brake System (ABS*) monitors wheel speed, and matches stopping power to available traction.

*ABS is a supplemental device for brake operation, not a device for shortening stopping distance. Always remember to reduce speed sufficiently before approaching curves and corners.

2012 Suzuki Burgman 200 Review


All the same great benefits as the 125 but with extra power for the open road. it's sleek, flowing design surrounds an incredibly spacious underseat storage compartment that allows you to easily stow anything from two helmets to your gym kit. A lockable front storage compartment provides even more storage options. An integrated windscreen is aerodynamically designed for improved airflow and a smooth ride.

Fuel injection makes for easy starting every time, instant throttle response and economical running while a combined front and rear hydraulic disc brake system helps you stop quickly and safely. An innovative metal shutter on the ignition is operated by a set of coded magnets in the key fob for added security.

2012 Vespa S 125 Review

SPORT SPECIAL EDITION

Vespa S 125 Sport brings out the sport spirit of Vespa with strictly minimalist aesthetics which, thanks to its small body, are reminiscent of the 1970s circa models. The simple yet eye-catching livery of the Vespa S Sport emphasises its clean, restrained forms.
The dedicated graphics and the saddle, single seat for the 50 version, with white piping and thermobonding, convey a further sporty touch. The black wheels rims enhance the Vespa S Sport's essential elegance even more, now sporting the bold new Nero Abisso colouring.

The Sport Special Edition of the Vespa embodies the values of style, comfort, safety and sportiness of the most widely spread scooter in the world while citing legendary models such as the 1955 Vespa GS 150, the 1965 180 SS and the T5 "Pole Position" from 1985.

Even sportier and more aggressive today, the Vespa GTS SuperSport and Vespa S Sport are objects of pure desire.

Since its earliest days, there have always been sports versions of the Vespa, which were frequently used in both circuit racing and in major off-road competitions. The Sport versions of the Vespa GTS Super and Vespa S offer a modern interpretation of this extraordinary competition heritage, which has written unforgettable chapters in Vespa history.


2012 Vespa S 125 Model Highlights

The Vespa Sport special edition is recognisable at first glance by a few distinctive and common characteristics such as the Vespa badge and the "S" on the front shield of the GTS Super.

The burnished "Sport" plates on the S Sport and "Super Sport" on the GTS Super leg shield back plates, make this special edition stand out even more.

The suspension gains a distinctive racing red finish for the front spring, a motorsports detail that makes the front view of the Vespa GTS Super and Vespa S even more aggressive. An aggressive front cowl emphasises the sporty character of the Sport edition Vespas.
