Suzuki Thunder 125 weight overview

WHAT THIS MEANS

This is on the lighter side for a road motorcycle. The advantage is usually most obvious while parking, maneuvering at walking speed and moving the bike around off the engine. The comparison uses dry weight because a usable wet/running figure was not supplied, so the actual ready-to-ride motorcycle will be heavier.
