Along with the 2019 GSX-R150, Suzuki has introduced the 2019 GSX-S150 naked roadster in Indonesia. Most of the updates that were seen on the GSX-R150 are seen on the GSX-S150, including Keyless Ignition System (optional), new LCD speedometer backlight, hazard lamp and easy start system.

The GSX-S150 has the same mechanical and hardware specifications as the GSX-R150. It is powered by a 147.3 cc single-cylinder, water-cooled, 4-valve, DOHC engine with fuel injection tech. This motor delivers 18.9 hp (14.1 kW) of power at 10,500 rpm and 14 Nm of torque at 9,000 rpm. Single, petal-type discs on the front and the rear wheel deliver the stopping power. A monoshock at the back and conventional telescopic forks at the front perform the shock absorption tasks.
The styling of the GSX-S150, sans the fairing design, is nearly identical to the GSX-R150. The naked roadster uses tank shrouds to get a muscular look. The GSX-S150 uses a flat, single-piece handlebar instead of clip-on units on the fully-faired model for upright and city-friendly ergonomics. Apart from that, all design details are identical on both motorcycles.
The 150 cc GSX duo rides on cast alloy wheels that are wrapped in 90 / 80-17 section front, and 130 / 70-17 profile rear tyres. The fuel tank capacity is identical too, and both motorcycles can carry up to 11-litres of petrol. The fully faired model, however, tips the weighing scale at 131 kg (dry), while the naked roadster is a kilogram lighter at 130 kg (dry).
