Reviews of Suzuki Gixxer SF 250

Hello. I bought my Gixxer SF 250 matt black on October 2020 from bangalore Meghdooth motors. The buying experience was very good. I decided to go with SF 250 mainly because of the riding comfort (not too dynamic and not very upright also) considering its a sports tourer and i wanted a faired motorcycle.
Pros-Good power delivery, loved the design, definite attention grabber on the road mileage city- 35, highway-37.5Comfortable riding posture, stable at 145km with pillion
Cons:-Back breaks could have had better bite, not the most effective wind blast at 110+Pilion comfort is good, but not suitable for long rides, no issue faced till now 4000 km.

About the Reviewer

Straight to the experience of riding this motorcycle, Suzuki has done justice to the 250cc segment and bringing up a new competitor and machine into it. The machine is completely refined and a well built faired motorcycle. Had so many wonderful riding experiences with this machine. It's a complete package. A slipper clutch would have been nice but more or the same, the bike is an eye-catcher.

About the Reviewer

1. Buying experience was very good.
2. Riding experience is upto the mark. In highway it is very much stable to clock triple digits speed. But in city it feels slightly on the heavier side when you filter through city traffic.
3. The 249.3 cc motor that pack with power and mileage. In this premium quarter-liter segment who are looking for a all rounder package here's the search end. On highways it can easily maintain triple digits speed with a decent mileage. And look wise it's a head turner machine. When I ride this machine everyone makes a look on it. I have the suzuki 100th year anniversary moto gp colour scheme. For that this bike looks like a big bike. 4. But here i little disappointed. Suzuki's spare parts are not easily available in the market. You find spare parts most of the time but sometimes you have to wait for spares. But maintenance is too cheap. I just did the 1st service with a 1400 rs bill. I used Castrol power 1 ultimate 20w50 for my motorcycle.
5. Pros:
• looks are the up to the mark.
• performance is enough for your all rounder performance.
• braking are superb and handling on a stiffer side that decrease your comfort but increase your handling with a dual channel abs set up.
Cons:
• missed out led indicator.
• little windscreen is not helps much when you are on highway.
• assist and slipper clutch are missed out.

About the Reviewer

I went to buy r15 initially and find it very uncomfortable and for 155cc bike i didn't want to spend that much amount, so thought to check on gixxer sf250. Fell in love on the very first glance with silver triton colour. I've booked the bike in the noon and delivered in the evening.
Riding experience: bike performance was very smooth and seating position for rider was very comfortable. I went on a road trip for 300 kms recently, till 200kms on a single go I didn't find any problem with seating. I've done a top speed of 151 kmph on express highway and bike was very smooth till 120 km/h and pickup was very good. Easy to control and easy to maintain. In city I used to get mileage of 35 km/l and on highway I've got approx. of 33 km/l because of speed factor where I've constantly driven over 130 kmph over an period of 90 minutes.
Pros : good looking, very comfortable, mileage, maintenance, pickup, smoothness, controlling.
Cons : instrument cluster is very basic, horn sound is like scooty, bit noisy on gears shifting, rear brake could be better, visor could be little big bigger,

About the Reviewer

I don't have this bike, but i know everything about this bike,
That feeling was very awesome when i first rode this bike, the sound of its pickup is very awesome, this bike run like whole butter, awesome riding experience which i will never forget
It's look so much awesome like the beast of the road,
Cleaning the bike per month, changing oil every 2000 km , and safe drive
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

I bought it from Shiv Suzuki. They delivered me the bike in 1 week after all paperwork and payment. It was a hassle-free experience from shiv suzuki.
Before coming to the decision of buying gixxer sf250, I tested r15 v3 and pulsar rs200, though I liked yamaha for their engine smoothness and ride quality, I was not impressed with the overall dimensions of R15 v3, it hurt my back like hell. It might be the physical limitation considering my height (5"8) and I was not keen to buy RS200 either considering Bajaj's long term cost of ownership.
Initially, my plan was to buy 150SF but when I saw 250SF in the showroom with matt black finish I was blown away by its looks. Even today you won't go unnoticed riding on this in public. Performance-wise it's a really a smooth bike, I have been using it for almost a year and haven't faced any issue while doing so. My daily running is 35 kms which I cover almost within 0.8-0.9 liter of petrol.
The engine is calibrated powerfully yet economical considering the 250 cc capacity of the bike. I go up to the speed of 100 km/h without feeling the windblast but post that you can feel the vibration in the engine but anyways who goes post 100 km/h on indian roads. Another issue that I feel with suzuki is hardness in gear shifting I have driven apache 300 and re classic 500 cc but that didn't feel this hard like 250cc. I have cut off 1* only for that (consider it as 4.5)
For free service, suzuki charges 900 Rs for an oil change but I think it should be free of cost for the first 3 services.
Pros: riding comfort, ride quality, performance
Cons: hard gear shifting

About the Reviewer

This bike is superb in terms of:1. Built quality2. Engine performance3. Ride comfort4. Milage.5. design in addition to above noted few more things as The design is very eye catchy and u will be first among while accelerating from a signal. The engine has enough grunt and punches in all gears and rpm. The headlight throw is pretty enough. The disadvantage i felt was the visor is not purposeful, but can be replaced with jb visor or any other from the aftermarket. This is one of the best 250 bikes with no heating issues and can be used for daily commuting and touring as well.

About the Reviewer

More than satisfied with the gixxer sf 250 as i was the first one to get this bike in indore and the performance of the bike is to good an its pleasure to ride this beast in city as it is having a eye catchy looks and super comfortable posture. Mileage is around 35-40kmpl in city and my mom also feels comfortable as a pillion.

About the Reviewer

This is my first bike and i occasionally rode friends' gixxer and ns200. I thought of getting dominar but due to their '"amazing customer care", i couldn't even get a test ride. But i made a good choice considering performance-mileage aspect. I am not a slow rider and not a maniac either. So, riding conditions are mixed and would love to keep my speed at 70 to 90-100. This bike excels at those speeds with great mileage and unbelievable ease. I don't believe in people who say 90kmph is normal on naked or 150cc bikes. Those speeds are little uncomfortable for both rider and engine. This one handles that speed pretty well with some wind protection.Best things:1. Acceleration: nice linear-pull during 3-7k rpm. You will enjoy that smoothness it gives you along.2. Oil cooling: very effective. Not a gimmick at all.3. Stability: good stability at high speeds and nimble at low.4. Mileage: received 39kmpl for 2 tanks and average till now is 37-40. I think it is awesome considering the performance.Neutral: vibrations post 7k. Slightly annoying but not horrible. Bad things:1. Gear shifting: same as gixxer and not a good experience.2. Windscreen: at 100-110 bike is rock stable but you aren't because of opposing wind you get.3. Dual muffler: better on gixxer. This rectangle-ish design just sucks. Not a deal-breaker though.
