Conclusion - what gets stuck
The Suzuki GSX 1250 FA is an all-rounder in the best sense of the word. It can be driven sportily, is suitable for travel and is really fun on the country road and motorway. Due to its weight, high performance and chassis characteristics, it is certainly not a bike for beginners. Even small or petite people should look for another motorcycle.Due to the technically rather simple equipment and a good production quality, the GSX 1250 FA is certainly one of the more reliable bikes. It can hardly break anything and all bandits have always had a reputation for doing their service uncomplicatedly for years without repairs. It is therefore ideally suited as a workhorse for the daily commute to work. If you want to buy a used GSX 1250 FA, you don't have to shy away from bigger mileages. The machines of this type are considered to be unbreakable.
