Best ForSuitable for beginners and license holders with a basic scooter or car license, requiring minimal riding skill thanks to the fully automatic transmission.
PurposeDesigned as a practical, fuel-sipping urban commuter for weaving through traffic and short daily errands rather than performance riding.
Rider FitEasy to manage physically with a low seat height, light weight, and step-through frame that suits shorter or less experienced riders.
CharacterA sensible, no-fuss scooter that prioritizes economy, storage, and ease of use over excitement or speed.
Not Ideal ForNot suitable for highway touring, carrying a passenger over long distances, or riders seeking spirited performance.

2012 Suzuki Burgman 125 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 735mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2012 Suzuki Burgman 125, with a moderate knee angle of around 100 degrees and a slightly forward riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
