Suzuki Swish

Suzuki Swish 125 is the second offering by Suzuki Motorcycle India Private Limited (SMIPL), after Access 125. The company has enhanced the appearance of Swish with bold graphics and pleasing color range for targeting young population with a new fancy model. A few new elements are also introduced in the machine that make it more competitive. One of the changes from the previous model is a new instrument cluster that sports analog speedometer, digital dual trip meter, service reminder, fuel level, time and oil change indicator.

Suzuki Swish 125 is the only scooter to flaunt a blue lens position lamp and multi-reflector lights that offer a better view at night. The seat on the scooter is longer and wider and is a comfortable seat for two people during the long rides. The under seat storage is 20 liters and can carry a full-size helmet. In terms of security, Swish gets central locking with shutter key.

Suzuki Swish 125 runs on the same 124cc, 4-stroke, single cylinder, OHC engine with CVT transmission, that was used in the previous model. The motor churns out a maximum power of 8.58 bhp at 7,000 rpm with a peak torque of 9.8 Nm at 5,000 rpm.

The 125cc scooter comes equipped with telescopic suspension at the front and swing arm type spring loaded hydraulic damper at the rear end. It runs on 90/100-10 tubeless tyres, which are supported by 120mm drum brakes for stopping power.

The new model of Swish 125 was launched with a lot of cosmetic changes. The sharp and edgy lines on the scooter bring out the overall character with a sophisticated V shape design at the front. The front of the machine is wonderfully designed and has eye-shaped turn indicators and headlamp unit housing a stout and efficient bulb for better visibility at night and foggy conditions. The rear view mirrors and rear aluminum grab rail look quite trendy and give the two-wheeler a ravishing look. As expected from Suzuki, the build quality of the scooter is up to the mark.
