With its iconic Husqvarna styling in striking red, black, and white, the SMR125 captures attention, whether parked at a café or tearing through winding roads. At the heart of the SMR125 is a spirited 124.45cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine, delivering a robust performance that’s both exhilarating and manageable for newer riders. With a compression ratio of 11.2:1 and a 6-speed gearbox that offers precise gear shifts, this motorcycle strikes an impressive balance between power and control.

The braking system, featuring a 261 mm front disc and a 220 mm rear disc, provides reliable stopping power that complements the bike's agile performance. With an electric starter for easy ignition and a ground clearance of 255 mm, this bike is built for both urban jaunts and adventurous trails, making it a true all-rounder. **
Pros
- Lightweight and Agile: At just 117 kg, the SMR125 is easy to maneuver, making it ideal for both new riders and seasoned enthusiasts looking for a nimble ride.
- Versatile Performance: The combination of a powerful engine and advanced suspension allows for smooth transitions between street and off-road riding.
- Stylish Design: The eye-catching color scheme and sleek lines reflect the Husqvarna heritage, appealing to riders who value aesthetics alongside performance.
Cons
- Limited Fuel Capacity: With a 9.50-litre tank, longer rides may require more frequent refueling compared to other models in its class.
- Seat Height: At 900 mm, the seat height may be challenging for shorter riders, potentially affecting comfort and control.
