    I'd been waiting for this to come out due to the price and 3 year warranty , full licence holder with a bigger bike but wanted something cheap for a 9 mile commute, picked mine up at the start of April and personally , I think it's great , I've only gone up to 52 mph as I want to be a bit sensible for the first 600 miles, I'm a little over 200 miles in and am getting a smidgen over 133 mpg on my commute which is 30 40 and 50 limits over 9 miles . I haven't made any UA-cam videos but might do a 600 mile owners review in a few weeks

    Filmed in Milton Keynes, where I live! And I have a Suzuki Address too, brought brand new from Mission Motorcycles, it is the 2016 Suzuki Address 113cc Sports MotoGP edition. It’s brilliant, the best bike I have ever had. Don’t worry about the slight drop of cc’s from 125cc to 113cc, there is no noticeable difference from my old 125cc bike that I had before I got this. The Suzuki Address is a rocket ship 🚀 . It’s also comfortable and easy to ride, VERY good on miles to the gallon meaning it’s both saving the world against Global Warming, and saving you money, each time you ride. Build quality is excellent, a lot better then the Chinese bikes, like my first ever bike was, definitely never again! Back to the Suzuki Address, The accessories are great too. If you choose to go for it, the top box can easily fit a full face helmet, or a lot of shopping bags, and under the seat has a lot of space too. There’s also a laptop bag holder on the console at the front, and two bottle/cup holders (Who can argue with that?) 🎉

    Interesting review. I'm probably going to go for the Honda Vision 110 though because it has bigger wheels and comes with a rack so a top box can be added easily. The Address grab rail would need to be replaced with a rack. The Vision is £300 more expensive though.

    Many thanks for a great review. I was allowed to do short testride within the parkingarea of a dealer because the roads where still icy and full of salt. I managed still pick up a couple of things during the short testride. I now that the bike was brand new but I fell that the brakes where little bit to spongy taking under consideration that it was a brand new bike. This specific. bike made som mecanical noises but the afterwards I relized that it is air cooled bike and I thing I was hearing the valves. As the dealer wanted to start the bike it didn't turn over because the battery was dead. I don't know how the battery could have gone flat during the weekend. Anyway the dealer got it started and the enginelight came on and the dealer told me that it was normal because he had to jumpstart the battery. Mine concern was how the bike would behave when you lean it over in curves? Does it do a sudden drop into the curves due to the small tires? Onother dealer let me testdrive the Honda SH 125 mode which I felt was more refined bike. I would go for the suzuki because it is still aircooled and has a kickstarter but for the honda because of the bigger tires and more horsepower.

      Colorway is a very widely used term to describe the different colors products come in.. I mean everything, shoes have colorways, clothing lines too, and refrigerators do too. It’s different than just color in that it refers to a given release date or time or something like that.. sorta like a model but for colors. Hope that cleared it up, a newer term yes, but if you understand it, it is actually more practical and knowledgeable than just “color” 😊

    To talk about the claim that the scooter is not fast enough ( 3:34 ), I wanted to let you guys know. They offer you different options (At least they used to, I just looked and I couldn’t find any other Suzuki Address models listed. As I went for the MotoGP option, they put in a fuel injection system in, and a few other things that I can’t remember. The Suzuki Addresses that you have look like standard ones, so you won’t be able to compare unless you test drive an Address Sport MotoGP edition too, that would be a real try! The top speed I’ve reached on the Suzuki Address Sport 113cc MotoGPis 65mph, on the A421 between Milton Keynes and Bedford. But even on day to day usage, I could get up to 60mph easily on the MK roads, I’ve never felt vulnerable on them (Despite falling off three times in the past). Accelerating between 60mph or 64mph can be difficult sometimes, all depending on the road surface and weather conditions, the mechanical state of the bike, weight of items in the bike storage, etc. There have been a few instances of feeling like I could get up to 65mph, but at that point, my limiter kicks in 😠. I think it would be a fun video to do a race between the Addresses, perhaps one limited and one de-limited? Or a race between the standard recent model and the older MotoGP edition? Or against other variants? Or a race testing a brand new standard specification versus an older specification? Just some ideas for you guys 😊

    The previous Address was a 110 with larger wheels , built in China & would do 65 mph on clock on good day . Looked more modern than this more classic looking model & was reported to be very economical & reliable . Why would you lash out silly money on a Vespa , when one of these will probably be cheaper to run more reliable & do the same job around town & commuting ,plus less of a target for thieves who are more likely to target Vespas . 👍

Anybody got this suzi or mode can you get a small size jet helmet in them and shut seat?.

    I don't understand the logic here. Budget friendly 125cc scooter?
    Ummm... I'm in Thailand and I bought a Honda Wave 125i for 54,000thb, or basically 1,200GB, or 1,500USD.
    So wtf are you talking about, 'budget friendly'?
    The Suzuki Address 125 is 154,800thb... I could buy 3 Honda scooters!

      I'm in the UK, talking about UK prices with bikes available here. You're best looking for reviews from Thailand.

      The Honda wave 110 or innova 125cc is no longer sold in the uk, although it would probably be the same price as the Suzuki address/access 125cc, the Honda super cub 125 as Oct 2023 is £3750. The Honda vision 110 here is £2800. The Suzuki address/access is a cheap scooter in the uk compared to other Japanese scooters.
