Suzuki Gixxer with rear disc brake to be launched on April 15

Suzuki showcased the Gixxer equipped with a rear disc brake at the 2016 Auto Expo. This motorcycle will be launched for the Indian market on April 15.

Apart from the disc brake, there are no mechanical changes to the Gixxer. However, to give it a new avatar, Suzuki has brought in a new black-green paint scheme for this variant. The features like digital instrument cluster with trip meter, fuel gauge, odometer etc. are the same as they will be carried from the existing model.

The Gixxer remains powered by the four-stroke single cylinder air-cooled 155cc engine. This motor churns out 13.94bhp of power and 14Nm of torque and comes mated to a five-speed manual gearbox.

For people looking for a 150cc motorcycle with a good performance and a decent fuel efficiency, the Suzuki Gixxer is a good proposition. The addition of the disc brake has further enhanced the motorcycle's braking capabilities. This variant will be launched during the manufacturer's Gixxer day celebrations that will kick off this week.
