2021 Suzuki Burgman 125 Street Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by Suzuki for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2021 Suzuki Burgman 125 Street pairs a 124 cc (7.6 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 8.7 HP (6.4 kW) at 6,750 rpm while maximum torque reaches 10 Nm (7.4 lb-ft) at 5,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 70.2 HP per liter and a 1,250 rpm working window between peak torque (5,500 rpm) and peak power (6,750 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.

On the scales, the Burgman 125 Street measures 108 kg (238 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.08 HP/kg (12.41 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 780 mm (30.7 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,265 mm (49.8 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 5.5-liter (1.5 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 2.5 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 220 km (137 miles) between fill-ups.
