Overview

The Suzuki Marauder 125 is a cruiser produced from 1998 to 2012. For 2012, it has a 125 cm³ air-cooled single-cylinder four-stroke engine producing 12 hp (9 kW); wet weight is 140 kg, or 126 kg dry.

A 680 mm seat height gives the Marauder a low seating position, and its 140 kg wet weight is the load to manage when maneuvering at low speed. The 15.9 L fuel tank is larger than the 13 L tank used in 2011, giving it more fuel capacity between stops.

Pros and cons

Advantages

Low seat
The 680 mm seat height makes it easier to reach the ground at a stop.
Larger 2012 tank
Fuel capacity increased from 13 L in 2011 to 15.9 L for 2012, so there is more fuel aboard between stops.

Things to consider

Chain final drive
The chain needs periodic cleaning and adjustment.
Rear drum brake
The rear drum sheds heat less effectively than a disc during repeated hard braking.

Estimated ground reach

Both feet likely flat

You should have a stable stance at a stop, although seat width and suspension setup still matter.
