My new Suzuki Inazuma

I put up my Yamaha YBR125 for part exchange to get my hands on the new Suzuki Inazuma 250 and from the moment I pulled away from the showroom and onto the busy high street I knew my 17 mile commute to work was going to be excellent.

The machine is a complete pleasure to ride, even through the breaking in process I could feel the difference of how much quicker and smoother I was pulling away and attaining those higher A road speeds.

I admit at first I was weary about filtering, especially once I had seen the true size of this bike in person and I genuinely thought the over hanging wing mirrors of vans and trucks were going to rain on my parade. To my delight I was wrong.

This baby B-King has got the handling, grip, torque and road presence to make me want to hold onto mine for many years to come.
