The system makes starting the engine as easy as one quick push of a button. There is no need to hold it down. A single switch that controls both the start and stop functions is conveniently located on the right handlebar.
One glance at the AVENIS 125 reveals this as a scooter engineered to perform and designed to flaunt its sporty, sophisticated presence.
Sitting on it immediately informs the rider that it is built to be comfortable, well-appointed and fun to ride. Turning the engine over with one quick push of the start button and pulling away from the curb is all it takes to convince the rider of the exciting acceleration, nimble handling, and ability to effortlessly manoeuvre through traffic. And, soon after, it becomes obvious that the ride is quiet, the suspension smooth and the fuel economy impressive. Its an excellent choice to fit most any scooter need, be it commuting to school or office, shopping, running errands, or just getting out to enjoy an exhilarating run around town.
Dramatic and energetic urban styling is evident in every detail, with edgy, dynamically contoured body lines, attractive contrasting colour accents, and black metallic-finish badging. With its sportbike-like styling, the AVENIS 125 enhances pride of ownership and emphasizes the fact that it is much more than just an everyday scooter.
Suzuki Eco Performance (SEP) is the forward-looking engine development concept behind the creation of the powerplant for the new Avenis 125. The resulting engine features an outstanding level of environmentally responsible performance, both in terms of low fuel consumption and low emissions, while also achieving the seemingly contradictory feature of excellent dynamic performance, with powerful acceleration delivering exciting off-the-line response.
"The AVENIS 125 chassis is engineered to create a nimble and agile package that is highly manoeuvrable, easy to handle and comfortable to ride. Everything, from the design of the frame and selection of wheels and tyres to optimizing suspension performance and including the Combined Brake System, is geared toward achieving this goal. Straight-line and cornering stability are excellent, tall ground clearance enables the rider to lean easier into turns, and the AVENIS 125 proves its ability to excel in most any urban riding situation.
The underbone frame is built using large-diameter thin round pipe. Designed to minimize weight while maximizing rigidity, this frame contributes to the AVENIS 125s outstanding fuel efficiency, excellent straight-line stability and positive cornering performance.
The front suspension is balanced with a medium spring rate. This optimises the working range of the telescopic front forks and results in a smooth ride that distributes weight evenly on the front wheel for maximum confidence and grip in all conditions. Both the forks and rear suspension are finely tuned and carefully matched to the tyres and wheels to achieve a fine balance of stability, solid road-holding performance, nimble handling, and comfort.
"The full-digital instrument panel for the Avenis 125 features a compact LCD screen with a clean and intuitive layout that displays all the information the rider requires. It is illuminated to maximize visibility both day and night. The panels LCD readouts include the speedometer, clock, current fuel consumption, average fuel consumption (x2), engine temperature, odometer, dual tripmeters, fuel gauge, battery voltage meter, and oil change interval reminder.
LED indicators flanking the main screen include the turn signals, Eco Drive Indicator, master warning, high beam and malfunction.
The Suzuki Eco Drive Indicator* lights up when the scooter is being ridden in a fuel-efficient manner, offering instant feedback that can help riders learn techniques for maximizing fuel economy.
The Eco Drive Indicator does not automatically improve fuel economy but may help riders refine their riding efficiency and improve fuel consumption.
"At heart, it is a practical, fuel-efficient town scooter that is ideal for commuting, shopping, and maneuvering through city traffic. But its styling draws on Suzukis sportbike heritage, with futuristic body lines and front and side cowling accents that accentuate its performance credentials. From its striking front end to its sleek, upswept tail, the AVENIS 125 is designed to appeal to people who want to experience the joy and exhilaration of two-wheeled urban freedom served up with a sporty sense of style and sophistication.
"The system makes starting the engine as easy as one quick push of a button. There is no need to hold it down. A single switch that controls both the start and stop functions is conveniently located on the right handlebar.
The covered left-side front compartment is large enough to accommodate a large-screen smartphone and houses a standard-equipment 2A USB outlet for charging smartphones. An attractive blue LED remains lit as long as the ignition is turned on, making the outlet easy to locate, especially at night or in dark conditions.
"Suzukis Combined Brake System supports well-balanced braking by distributing braking force to both the front and rear wheels when the left brake lever is operated. Stable stopping power is provided by a 190mm diameter disc brake in the front and a 120 mm drum brake in the rear.
A switch on the left brake lever enhances comfort and convenience by locking the rear wheel to keep the Avenis 125 in place when the rider stops.
