Pros Cons of Suzuki GSX-8R

Pros

  • Its parallel-twin engine makes over 80 bhp and delivers its grunt lower down the rev range.
  • The predictable power delivery makes it approachable for riders stepping up to their first big bike.
  • It has a non-adjustable suspension setup that soaks up slow-speed bumps while keeping high speed runs stable.
  • Excellent fit and finish with tight panel gaps and neat machining.
  • It has three ride modes alongside four traction control settings that include a full ‘off’ mode.
  • Its compact front windscreen cleanly directs airflow over the rider.
  • The sticky 120-section front and 180-section rear tyre substantially aids in cornering stability.

Cons

  • Brakes start losing bite and progression once speeds rise and needs you to use extra lever pressure.
  • At 205 kg, its weight is noticeable when manoeuvring at slow speeds.
  • Switching into the sharpest ride mode makes its throttle response snappy.
  • With 145 mm of ground clearance, it needs you to be cautious over larger speed breakers.

Verdict

The Suzuki GSX-8R strikes a unique balance between daily usability and open-road touring. Its flexible parallel-twin engine has a forgiving but rich power band that makes it an easy motorcycle to live with, day in and day out.

Yes, we admit that the vague high-speed brake bite and a lack of complex electronic aids will mean it may not satisfy track-focused purists. However, if you want a fast, practical, and approachable middleweight sports tourer that manages city traffic and highway blasts equally well, this motorcycle should be on your list.

Pros Cons Suzuki Avenis

Pros

  • This 125 cc scooter feels very quick with predictable and smooth acceleration.
  • At just 106 kg, it is agile and easily goes beyond 80 kmph.
  • Its absorbent suspension setup soaks up broken roads effortlessly.
  • The 780 mm seat height makes it convenient for all kinds of riders.
  • Its LCD console has Bluetooth with WhatsApp text updates, and a built-in USB charging socket.
  • Its 21.8-litre under-seat storage space is quite spacious, and it has an external fuel filler cap.
  • The floorboard area is wide enough for carrying some baggage and also gets utility hooks.

Cons

    • This scooter’s design is similar to the TVS N-Torq 125.
    • Its under-seat storage area is not deep enough for a full-face helmet.
    • The lower variants are not appropriately equipped with modern features.

Verdict

The Suzuki Avenis 125 is a well put-together scooter, which unlike the Access 125, has a sharper design. It handles city riding duties effectively, has excellent initial acceleration, boasts great stability and has a rich electronic instrument console.

Sure, the styling looks a little too familiar to the N-Torq, but all said and done, if you are looking for a reliable, quick and sporty looking 125cc commuter that offers reasonably good efficiency and effortless handling, this is the one to buy.
