- We've recently been on the UK launch for the all-new Suzuki Avenis and Address 125cc scooters. As always, this video accompanies a ScooterLab written road test so be sure to read about it as well as watch the video.

Currently driving an Avenis for 7 months in South Africa.
Fuel efficiency, comfort, handling, incline speed, looks… 8/10
ALL Good!!!!
I bought it based on this review, Thank you!
Only cosmetics I would add to this bike is a Hazards light switch and for the generic closed helmets to fit under the seat space.
Nice review, these scoots look like good value when compared to others.I quite like a Suzuki myself..Andre.
It is very well priced and a decent scooter.
They're taking on the cheap Chinese Scooter market.
Well done Skuzi ❤
Not chinese, but india..
I enjoyed my 23 plate Avenis until a Kia Sportage decided to take a closer look and knocked me flying on Good Friday... Having riden one I would say it was better than the older Address scooter, plus it looks great!
Sorry to hear that, I hope you claim against the Kia. I am in the market for a new scooter and took a look at the Avenis but they put the fuel tank in the most stupid of places, you can't fit a top box. Who ever come up with that idea needs to look in the mirror.
@overcorpse I'm not sure what they were thinking with the fuel cap. Perhaps it's to stop people putting a top box on and spending the extra for the Burghman so they can fit a top box to that?
@@gthbtn Spot on. That's what I thought. The Burgman is not going to be very compelling vs the PCX and Sym Jet X at its price though.
@overcorpse I'm on a loaner Honda sh mode and that seems to have more power than the Avenis.
@@gthbtn Yeah, the Suzuki engines (6.4 kw) appear quite weedy compared to the Hondas (9.4kw). The Burgman is going to have the same engine as the Avenis but has to carry the extra weight of the extra fairings, while also not having ABS and not keyless. For me, for the price Suzuki is going to charge for the Burgman, it is DOA.
I hope you * cough * * cough * claim for injuries with the Kia.
I ride a Yamaha Aerox 155 in Thailand. The extra 25/30/35cc scooters often have in the 'small scooter' category over here really makes a difference.
A lot of people just look at the engine size, but there’s a very large difference between 125cc bikes.
8.6hp Suzuki scooter here 125cc
9hp Honda Grom / Monkey 125cc
11hp Vespa Sprint / Primavera 125cc
14.7hp Piaggio Medley 125cc
@@JakeM218 Scooters accelerate a lot better than the same size bike.
How does this compare to the Honda Vision 110. I like the bigger wheels and want a small bike for touring. They both look good but the smaller wheels are putting me off.
Thanks for a nice review. How was the bike leaning into curves? Does it do a sudden drop into the curve due to the small tires? Have you redden the sh 125 mode and can compare it to it?
You don’t have to worry about wheel size too much. It turns just fine. A larger wheeled scooter like the SH is better on potholes but it’s not really comparable on price to this scooter.
@@ScooterLabUK In Germany you can still find the sh 125 mode for 2700 euro but the suzuki costs 3000 euro.
@@thebikegeekandmore2448 Interesting what the price is now. In my country (Bulgaria) the Avenis is 2500 euro. While the cheapest (comparable) Honda is the Vision 110 that is 3000. All 125 Hondas are even more expensive.
Into getting a new 125 Scooter here in Seychelles. Over here some comfort is rather necessary because of the potholed, rippled tarmac. Suzuki agent is expecting a batch of Avenis/Burgman 125's to come in soon. Yamaha RAY ZR Hybrid is also to land here and is a contender as well.
Do you get the Piaggio Liberty?
Suzuki:
125cc
Small wheels
8.6hp
No ABS
Piaggio Liberty:
125cc
14” and 16” wheels
11hp
ABS braking
Edit: In England, these are priced the same! No idea why anyone would consider the Suzuki.
No, we don't. Don't like big wheeled scooters anyway so not a prob.
I own a 2016 Suzuki Address Sport 113cc MotoGP edition, and I live in Milton Keynes, where you filmed this! I keep looking at the other side of the road to see if I can see myself but it doesn’t look like it 😢 . I am sure I saw you guys at one point, as I saw a group of bikers riding Addresses. Still though, awesome you came here! Personally, I like the paint job of the 2016 one better though, the colours on this new one look a bit bland 😮
I’m sure you’ll have seen us and MK is the home of UK Suzuki.
Thank you for the first impression of these scooters.
Do you have a comparison to the Peugeot Speedfight 4 125ccm?
Unfortunately here in Germany we have only pre-owned Speedfight on the market. And they are pretty pricey. I'm not sure whether to buy a new Avenis or the more powerful but used Speedfight.
If Suzuki would offer the blue painted Avenis in Europe my choice would definitely be Suzuki 😅
The Speedfight is a great scooter and as you say more powerful. We’ve not tested one for a while though. I do compare the Avenis to the Peugeot though in looks at least. It depends if you want a new scooter, or are happy to go for an older one though.
@@ScooterLabUK Thank you for your quick response. Right...
I think I have to flipp a coin for the decision 😅
Kind regards and a save ride!
@@chrisdee2165 good luck 🤞
I have the peugeot speedfight 4 125 and i am thinking to change it for the suzuki address :D
wow Pug has scooter
talks about road sense and knowledge. drives through the center of a roundabout. don't use turn signal.
Whilst on a photo shoot with traffic closed off for us on the roundabout.
@@ScooterLabUK would be great, wouldn't it?
You sound like one of the guys who do 17 in a 20 mph road.
@@shabs2134 yes :(
