Confused Hi guys, are there problems with the watercooled suzuki 125s, there is alot for sale on trademe and very cheap with low kms, but some say they overheat, is this true? I'm looking for a 125-200 scooter and have been warned off these.

Suzuki is a good, quality brand. If you check the coolant from time to time, keep an eye on the temp gauge and drive it well (not full throttling it everywhere) it will last for ever and should not overheat. I have a water-cooled Honda and that hasn't given me any problems with its cooling. Suzuki is a really good brand. I reckon you should go for it. Low k's for a 125 as well.

It was the epicuro i looked at and they say they are assembled in China (what isn't) and build quality is not so good and parts and are hard to get and expensive.
