Technical Overview
2016 Suzuki Best 125 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Positioned in Suzuki's scooter motorcycle lineup, the 2016 Suzuki Best 125 pairs a 124.5 cc (7.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 53.5 x 55.2 mm (2.1 x 2.2 inches) with a 9.6:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Best 125 measures 96.7 kg (213 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 770 mm (30.3 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,240 mm (48.8 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 4.5-liter (1.2 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 1.92 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 234 km (145 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 104 km/h (65 mph).
