    Aaah, Suzuki insider leaks images, SuperBike Magazine picks them up and posts them along with a speculative article, Hell for Leather grabs the story and posts with five times the number of pictures (I couldn't find them on SBM Wes, where where they hidden?), that article catches the eye of Winding Road who re-posts the images with a further summarized article, that article is picked up by our fearless Jalopnik Editor in Chief and linked proudly for our perusal and inviting our feedback.
    The internet is like a digital Rube Goldberg device, where the process is every bit as entertaining and engaging as the finished product.
    I look forward to the GSX-R125 as the next generation of Team Oregon trainer bikes.

    This little thing could actually be fun, given the old adage of "better to ride a slow bike fast than a fast bike slow." a 21st century YSR50, maybe?

    They really should have gone for 200-250cc displacement. That power / weight ratio is just a bit south of the 17 HP, / 260 lb dry weight of my Twinstar, and I'm sure my bike is a good bit more torquey with it's pathetic 9500 RPM redline, and I've generally got the throttle most of the way open in local traffic. The Kawasaki EX250 has almost no competition, MAYBE the Buell Blast, but they're almost not comparable... It's a shame Suzuki's not building a worthy competitor for the street.

    Also, single cylinder? Can't really tell, but most 125's are...

    @nataku8_e30: Do a Google search for "2010 Buell Blast". Only competitive as a high-priced coffee table.

    @68Fastback: Awesome, are they still asking the same price for them?
    Hopefully Buell will replace it with something that's legitimately good, but as much as I've been wanting to like them, their reputation for falling apart has kept me from seriously considering any Buell. Also, if you're going to put a V-twin in a sportbike, at least make it a wide angle / 90 degree V-twin. You can really only do so much with a Harley engine...

    @Wes Siler: I do now, I guess. Sorry, just looked at Buell's official page which made it sound like it was canceled for real and all remaining bikes were crushed.
