Overview

Introducing the 2010 Husqvarna SM 125S—a striking entry into the supermotard category that blends agility with spirited performance. Designed for both the urban jungle and winding backroads, this motorcycle is an embodiment of Husqvarna’s racing heritage and commitment to performance. With a sleek, lightweight frame and a striking design available in vibrant red/white or pure white, the SM 125S is not just about looks; it's a machine built for thrill-seekers and commuting enthusiasts alike. At the heart of the SM 125S lies a robust 124.82cc single-cylinder, two-stroke engine that churns out an impressive 15 HP at 9,500 RPM. This power is harnessed through a 6-speed gearbox, providing riders with an exhilarating experience whether navigating tight city streets or tackling open roads. The engine's liquid cooling system ensures optimal performance even during strenuous rides, while the compression ratio of 8.8:1 contributes to its responsive throttle and strong mid-range power. With a power-to-weight ratio of 0.1322 HP/kg, this bike delivers a thrilling ride, allowing riders to feel the rush as they accelerate through curves or launch off the line. The SM 125S is equipped with cutting-edge features that enhance both comfort and control. Its double tube cradle frame, crafted from steel round and square tubes, provides a solid foundation for aggressive cornering and stability. The front suspension boasts a 41mm Paioli USD setup, allowing for 260mm of travel, while the rear features an adjustable Paioli shock absorber with Soft Damp linkage, offering 220mm of travel. Coupled with powerful disc brakes—260mm in the front and 220mm in the rear—this bike ensures responsive handling and safety in various conditions. With a ground clearance of 265mm and a seat height of 870mm, the SM 125S is designed for maneuverability and rider confidence, making it an excellent choice for both seasoned riders and newcomers looking for a bike that offers a thrilling ride without compromising comfort. **

Pros

  • Lightweight and Agile: Weighing only 113.5 kg (250.2 pounds), the SM 125S is easy to handle and maneuver, especially in urban environments.
  • Strong Performance: The powerful 15 HP engine delivers an exhilarating riding experience, making it perfect for both daily commuting and weekend adventures.
  • Advanced Suspension: The high-quality Paioli suspension system provides excellent handling and comfort, allowing riders to tackle corners with confidence.

Cons

  • Kick Start Only: The traditional kick starter may not appeal to all riders, especially those accustomed to electric start systems.
  • Height Consideration: The seat height of 870mm (34.3 inches) may be challenging for shorter riders, potentially impacting comfort and control.
