Description
Hello, I'm selling this 1982 Suzuki GT 125 X4 which has been completely restored by myself, i. e. by hand. This allows me to offer it at the reasonable price of 2000€ and not 5000+ if it had been in concours condition. All the paintwork is original, and as you can see from the photos, the stickers sometimes have a few bumps. It runs very well: the little 2-stroke twin is very supple and pleasant, it gets a little nervous at 5, 000 rpm, then a little less enthusiastic between 7, 500 and 8, 000 rpm, and then soars to the red zone at 10, 000 rpm (it doesn't rip your arms off either: it's still a 125).
The mileage of 9100 km shown on the photos seems real to me, both according to the previous owner and considering the condition of the bike. Absolutely everything is original except the master cylinder which I couldn't save (I kept it anyway) and which is an adaptable. I fitted a transitorised ignition which makes it run much more smoothly and start up much easier. The handling is good with its 2 new Michelin tyres. Damping is correct and the machine is very lively thanks to its light weight. Braking is also good, provided you have a bit of grip on the right-hand handle. Fuel consumption is vintage, i. e. not really reasonable. Like all 2-strokes at the time, it was mainly air-cooled, with some petrol. I could have lowered the main jets by 10 points and it would have worked better, but I preferred to keep the original carburetion. It's classified MTT2, so it can't be driven with a B or A1 licence. Given its power, the A2 should suffice. To be checked. This little Suzuki will offer you driving sensations that are now forgotten and that nevertheless marked the youth of a whole generation. The registration document is normal and in my name.
