Suzuki Gixxer SF 250 Price in Kolkata

Bought this bike in November 2021 , and ride it for 6+ months as of now with odo less than 5000km with 2 services done to date. First of all the buying experience was good, got this bike on the same day I booked it. I did not like its look before the purchase, I just wanted a full fairing bike as I have a previously owned naked fz16 (2014). There are 4 fully-faired bikes in India - r15, gixxer, ktm and apache rr310. I rejected r15 as it is under power and I already have a 150cc bike so wanted to upgrade the cc. Rr310 and ktm were a bit costly for me. So I decided to go for it. But when I saw the bike in front of me in the showroom I just fell in love with it. It looks stunning, fully rocking. Everyone knows it is the most underrated bike due to Suzuki's poor marketing strategy and I loved it because I don't see many bikes the same as mine, feel unique. Now come to the performance. Its pickup is great, very fast, always wanted to rev, smooth buttery engine sound, very refined engine, handling is superb and look wise eye-catching and stunning. Service cost is also too low. It gives me around 35-40 kmpl. The bike price is very low, it costs me 216000. Seating posture is too good, there is no way you can feel any back pain, you have to lean but not that much like r15/ktm. The back seat is very high and that is perfect for a sports bike as I think. The rear tyre is fat 150/60. Overall it is the best 250cc machine in all aspects along with its price tag. I am very much happy with it, it gives me enough pleasure when I ride it. I have not found cons except the one during heavy traffic the wrist of hand feels some pain but that is ok. I must say it is the king of the road. And I want to say to the upcoming r15 buyer, don't go for r15 when you have a 250cc beast in the same price range. Though I believe r15 looks a little better but that doesn't mean sf250 looks ugly. In the end, overall cc, as well as performance, matters the most.

1)riding position - the gixxer hands down has one of the best riding positions out there in the market. It does not only give a sporty feeling but also is very comfortable as well. The sorted ergonomics mean that all types of riding can be done easily on the bike. Be it just normal cruising or even some aggressive runs as well.
2)although the suzuki gixxer sf 250 may look sporty, it is quite a comfortable bike to ride. The clip-on handlebars are raised, so the rider doesn’t have to crouch low while riding. Also, the foot pegs are positioned in a neutral manner, which means the riding position is slightly sporty yet comfortable, ensuring that long hours on the gixxer sf 250 isn’t as tiring as one would expect. Swing a leg over the saddle and you won’t find the 800mm seat height too tall. While it is the tallest in its segment, even 5’6’’ rider can easily flat foot the bike.

About the Reviewer

The suzuki gixxer 250 is an ideal motorcycle for anyone who is looking for a city-friendly vehicle beyond the 100cc-150cc space. It packs a good amount of mid and top-end performance while its handling prowess further aids its case. The original gixxer was a splendid motorcycle and one that we really enjoyed. This one offers an experience along the same lines, but with the welcome addition of that extra performance, we’ve been craving for all these years.
