SWM Varez 125 2020

The SWM Varez 125 is a sporty A1 motorbike with some strengths and some weaknesses. Its biggest disadvantage is probably its position in the 125cc market. With the Yamaha MT-125, KTM 125 Duke and Honda CB125R, it faces very strong competition. Because of its seat height, the SWM is more suited to taller A1 riders who don't want to go for the usual, ubiquitous brands, but are looking for something rarer. In addition to its rarity, the Varez 125 can also score points when it comes to eating up radii in the corner and in terms of fuel economy.

Taut, yet very sporty, stable chassis

Very smooth handling, falls virtually by itself in lean angles

Low fuel consumption

Very high for an A1 naked bike

Spongy gearbox

No gear indicator

Spongy rear brake

Purely functional instruments and display. Design-wise rather poor.
