Positioned in Suzuki's custom - cruiser motorcycle lineup, the 2006 Suzuki Marauder 125 features a 125 cc (7.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 11.5 HP (8.4 kW) at 9,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 9.6 Nm (7.1 lb-ft) at 7,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 92 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (7,000 rpm) and peak power (9,000 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 Marauder 125 measures 241 kg (531 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.05 HP/kg (20.96 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 680 mm (26.8 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,450 mm (57.1 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 13-liter (3.4 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
