Reviews of Suzuki Gixxer SF 250

I had the experience of joining my friend while he was getting his first sportsbike. He trusted me to ride it to home as he has a phobia of riding new bikes.Truly speaking, the first look didn't impress me as i am an avid re lover. But the moment, they turned the ignition on, i was flattered.The looks and styling forced me to change my mind to invest my money into this next time i go for a two wheeler.I rode it back and man, how do i explain how smooth it was. I was riding at 30kmph with the 4th gear engaged and there wasn't any hassle. It was smooth as butter. The suspension is so good and that even the roughest of the patches on our road was easy to us. Ride quality is too good if you ask this former re lover. The braking was excellent while engaging abs. We got to test it in rains.Pros:1. Styling 2. Ride quality 3. Handling 4. Suspension (even the pillion rider was comfortable)Cons: 1. The horn (it sounds like a scooty)Overall, this is a great sports bike for beginners. Don't compare it with ktm in terms of speed. Ktm is faster. But again, you don't get enough place in India to race.I am betting my money for this surely next time.

About the Reviewer

1. buying experience here in Bangalore is pretty good . Though i had to wait a long for getting the number plates .
2. Riding experience is quite well . I owned a Gixxer Sf before and I feel same while driving it in city . I am yet to take it out on tour . The riding quality is good with decent pick up . I found lot of vibrations till the first servicing .
3. Looks is great though I liked the old big head light model from last Sf model .
Headlight is good . Suzuki should have provided more details on the meter . Like Mileage details , speed details .
4. Servicing is ok . Not great and not bad . They charge for everything in the free service , and your amount will come around 1k, for free servicing.
5. Pros - stylish , superb performance .
Cons - Vibrations other than that its superb bike to enjoy .

About the Reviewer

Buying experience- never buy bike from rock suzuki byculla/ mahim, they not handling client properly & poor service Riding experience- bike is so much amazing for cruising on highway & very comfortable but not good for traffic condition Pros- premium looks, no heating issues, bike runs very smoothly, easy to overtakes, Cons- slipper clutch missing, headlight throw is not that much efficient, small digital meter, parts not available at workshop, price little high Servicing and maintenance- pocket friendly (mark suzuki sion- good service experience).

About the Reviewer

I bought in 2019, Gixxer 250 and I have to say, I'm satisfied and impressed! The buying experience was easy the dealership staff made the process quick and easy.
the performance is good The 249cc engine gives a good punch, I use it daily for office and personal time, and must say it delivers a smooth experience, the power is perfect for city riding and the occasional ones.
Aesthetically, the Gixxer 250 is amazing. everyone looks turning back at the signals and all. The sharp bodywork gives it an aggressive, sporty look and premium finish feeling, which really elevates the overall design.
Maintenance has been not an issue, but the official dealership charges a lot so not recommended. The service intervals are reasonable, and the parts are readily available and affordable at the local store.
The con I think is that is not a family ride
Overall, I couldn't be happier with my Gixxer 250. It's an absolute joy to ride and I'd highly recommend it to anyone in the market

About the Reviewer

Bought it from Jos Suzuki Angamaly Kerala. The showroom experience was great. I had already test-ridden the SF250 many times before the purchase. So I had a clear idea of how the bike was. The engine is a gem, with no vibration, and really smooth along the rev range. The bike itself is muscular and offers a big bike feel, yet at 161kgs feels light as well. Power delivery is so amazing. I got around 34kmpl mileage in the city before 1st service. I mostly used to ride at a speed of 70 to 80 in the cities. The braking is decent. Not spectacular or worse. It does the job. Led lights at the front offer great visibility at low lights. The rear led light looks cool.
I wish the turn indicators were led as well. I am really not happy with the visor which is practically useless. Had to get an after-market DB visor which works fine. Even the horn is pathetic. Feels like a scooter horn.

About the Reviewer

Suzuki gixxer 250 is actually one of the fully packed bike in this price range. On comparing with it's opponents cbr250 and ktm rc 200, the bike overall in between them. It is better than rc 200. Almost similar to cbr. But lacks the top performance when compared to cbr, mainly because of lack of wind protection. Feature wise, gixxer is much better than the cbr. As a city motorcycle and for daily usage, gixxer is the best in this class. It is very punchy, refined, sporty as well as comfort, and fuel efficient also.

About the Reviewer

Best fairing bike at this price range and you can use this as your daily commuter and especially I feel good with the pillion as my mom can sit comfortably.
Low maintenance and you will get better mileage on highways like long rides you will get easily 35kms and you can rev upto 140 km/h without any vibrations.
Now I feel much better by not opting RC200 over this.

About the Reviewer

It took slightly more than 3 months for the delivery due to lockdown. Only then I got the opportunity to get onto the bike and the seats and the riding position were not that sporty but was quite comfy. Then they did the paperwork and docs whilst I waited and then the bike was delivered.
Now i cranked the bike for the first time and i was not impressed at all because the vibrations were quite a lot more than what I've thought would be. I was wandering weather this was a bike from the recalled ones due to the improper balancer gear position thing but for my good, it was not. Then I started riding it to my home and it was quite a good experience altogether. The suspension was quite stiff and the feel of the motorcycle felt like something else (awesome) that I never worried about the vibrations during the drive. The headlights were super purposeful and the gears were quite precise and not that much hard as of said in few reviews.
The performance was not extraordinary or something of that sort but was sufficient (not as crazy as the KTM ones). The front brakes were good enough but the rear ones are pretty pathetic. But combining both it'll stop at your command. Since i rode it home when it was rainy I felt quite a bit of moist warmth coming from the fairing but there's absolutely nothing to worry since this motorcycle does not heat up that much.
The handling is not as good as the r15 but is pretty decent at best.
I've ridden around 160 kms as of now and a noise started around the clutch area of the gearbox. The noise stays when the bike is in neutral and idling but when I depress the clutch the noise goes away. I don't know why this happens to a brand new motorcycle. Have to check with the service centre yet. The looks are the one which made me love this machine. Lets wait and see how far and long this bike can hold.
