GSX 125 will compete with Yamaha YBR125 and Honda CB125F. It has a sleek and modern design with sharp-looking alloy wheels, a sporty stance, and street-bike styling.

The bike has a 125cc single-cylinder air-cooled petrol engine that makes 10.45 hp and 9.2 Nm of torque. It has a curb weight of 126 kilograms and a fuel economy of 42 kilometers per liter, as observed by various international bike reviewers. It has a 5-speed constant-mesh transmission with a return shift pattern.

The bike has a dual-piston caliper disc brake at the front and a conventional drum brake outback. In terms of suspension, it has dual inverted fork-tubes upfront and spring-loaded shock absorbers at the back.

Given the ongoing price inflation, market sources speculate that the GSX 125 will cost between Rs. 320,000 and Rs. 350,000, which is fairly expensive for a 125cc commuter bike.
