I'm thinking about buying one of these off ebay, the bike looks really good but I was wondering how quick they are? I'm looking for an improvement over my tuned Senda which was bloody quick for a 70cc!

SUZUKI TS125R
1990 on, 124cc w/c t/s single,
12hp, 70mph, 65mpg, 245lb
Neat enough trailster, okay both on and off road. Strong, durable engine in 12hp form, can double power with new pipe and derestricted engine – when piston and bore begin to wear rapidly if thrashed. Chain and rear suspension don’t last very well when neglected or used in muddy conditions. Quite easy to wheelie into oblivion and brilliant around city traffic. Beware of tuned bikes.

bought one a few weeks ago mate, an R-reg, nice bike, built pretty well and goes first kick all the time!

lovely bike and pretty nippy. to derestrict it take the seat off and there's a single connector with a black wire with a white stripe, disconnect it and your good to go! Twisted Evil

i don't think you can go wrong with it, especially if it's for your test, good view of the road, easy to ride and as reliable as you'd expect.

killa, who is a member on this site, is selling his TS125 I think. Looks really nice, and its got a respectable price tag on it too. I'm sure if you ask him nicely, he'll post a link to his auction.

I should imagine that many TS125's can make more than 12bhp, so don't go worrying about whether its going to be slow or not. A few extra mods will soon make it quicker. Wink
