1974 saw Suzuki introduce the GT125 to the motorcycling world.

This model was similar in layout to the GT185 but with a shorter wheelbase and smaller engine displacement. The rest of this model's equipment followed that of the GT185.

The electric starter was deleted, probably in the interests of economy, which allowed a more attractive selling price in the very competitive "beginner" market that this model competed in.

This model continued basically unchanged, excepting colours and trim items (the 'B' model in 1977 got a tail fairing), until the end of production with the 1977. Some markets received 1978 the 'EC' which had tall fairing and cast wheels. The 1979 and 1980 versions of this model had a name change to RG125 X4. The final GT125s were updated and sold with cast wheels and a tail fairing. Suzuki listed the RG125 X4 in their sales literature until 1980 in continental Europe.
