Are you buying new or used ? Forza would get my vote engine all complete with cooling no pipes to radiator up front plus power screen on latest model. Used I go for either best bang for buck all be good .I do like green on the J125 .

The Forza will be more economical, has more storage, better tech and so on. It's a better machine.
The J125 in green and black looks way better and will be a much sportier ride.
So check your priorities...
... and then buy the J125. There's plenty of time for being sensible when you're older.

You won't pick a bad one out of the 3.
I have a Burgman UH and am impressed with the build quality.

Forgot to say. News from Suzuki France is that the Burger will only be sold with a 400 engine in future.

I'm pretty sure the J125 has the same "body" as my J300. It feels, to me I hasten to add, solid and reasonable quality.......
I like mine....
I keep looking for an excuse to change it, but haven't thought of one yet......

i have seen the new design does look sexy but any dealers are miles off from where i live sadly
