O Dealer price: £3200-£3700 O Private price: £2900-£3500 O This one: 1400 miles, private sale The GSX-R has a very sporty riding position (as you’d expect from a GSX-R) and, in true Suzuki tradition, is priced very attractive­ly, too. The GSX-R125 is another bike that’s built in the Far East (Jakarta, this time), to keep costs down but, unlike other Far Eastern 125s, it’s perhaps aimed more at the European market than the home, so has an excellent power-to-weight ratio and is very economical.

It looks super, especially in the slightly pricier MotoGP colours (pictured below). It has remote keyless ignition, as well.

Buyer beware

Still a relatively new model, so more of an unknown than others here. Already recalled for potential loose frame bolts: check it’s had the recall work done.
