Suzuki Skydrive 125cc Preview

Are you the kinda person who is fed up with Road-drive? Here are more chances to come the next scooter from Suzuki – The Skydrive 125 to India. The name sounds very sexy and to a certain extent, the scooter too.

Suzuki Access set a benchmark for the scooters in the Indian market with its frugal and powerful 125cc engine. There is a considerable shift in people moving from using bikes from commuting to these scooters. The comfort you get from these scooters and the freedom from gears are the main reason for this considerable shift.

Now let’s get to know more about the Suzuki Skydrive 125.

Features:

• Super CVT 125cc Engine
• Mag Wheels
• Convenient Flat Floor Board
• Multi Reflector Headlamp
• Die-Cast Rear Footrest

Acceleration is brisk, the development of the Suzuki Skydrive 125’s body Suzuki designers looked clearly for ways to make the Skydrive more aerodynamic.

The rear suspension is a treat to ride, it provides a really accurate and sure-footed ride at all times, making the Suzuki Skydrive 125 great fun around twisty roads.

With such a good job having been made in all areas of the scooter, it is hard to single out one particular, outstanding feature, that is, until it is time to stop. One of the real stars of the show are the Skydrive’s brakes, the brakes on the Suzuki Skydrive 125 are superb.

The Suzuki Skydrive with its advance electronic fuel injection certainly marks a quantum leap for Suzuki, the art engine technology as DCP-FI (Discharge Pump Fuel Injection) and ultra modern ECM (Engine Control Module) makes the Suzuki Skydrive 125 the CVT leader in performance and fuel economics.
