I think side stand cutoff shouldn't be there. My friends bike fell during an accident and the side stand was damaged. The bike refused to start in the middle of nowhere.
The person reviewing this bike doesn't even know what he is reviewing. It has the fattest tyre in the segment of 250cc. Dominar 250 has 140. This is the most refined 250cc bike with good amount of punch in this range. Can ride for 3-4 hours without any discomfort. This is the reason why I dislike motorbeam. They don't know what they are reviewing and they don't even know how to review.
@@lokeshkumar-jj1dw 😂 ignore such people...even suzuki doesn't offer abs, they will say that abs doesn't need for suzuki bikes as it is disc brake by japan😂😂
Basically Engine cooling mechanism is there to keep the optimum temperature . If Susuki is able to make it happen why is that a negative ???? There are Orange and Red MCs out there with all those fancy "Liquid Cooling" in feature list but disappointing in real world testing . Pros or Cons , They should be valid & relevant.
Annoying reasons given for not buying. Are they even negatives in the first place? Its because you guys complain about lack of those features that suzuki is king in cars. They give all useless features and compromise on safety. Focus on how the bike is to ride and whether its good as a package rather than nitpicking and finding useless reasons to not buy it
The reason it's not selling much because of the design sharing with the 150's, Suzuki needs to re-design the visor & the Instrument cluster which are way smaller for our likings.
Guys trust me... This is the worst review i ever saw about this bike.. I have sf 250 bs6.. he didnt even said perfectly half about this bike. Only missing in this bike is slipper clutch and side stand cutoff feature.. who ever that reviewer is.. do some research buddy,, SOCS is much efficient as liquid cooling.. once i rode 130 kms without break.. i saw just warmness not too heat. Instrument cluster is awesome even in direct sunlight. Can even handle easily in traffic. Refinement is great for 250CC and finally i never saw such fuel efficiency in 250cc bike like this.. average im getting around 36-38kmpl..disc size is front 310mm and rear 240mm .

@@mrg3473 if you consider heavily overpriced ktms and overweight dominars then Gixxer is way ahead for the price. But if you consider fz250 then Gixxer should have been 15-20k difference in on road price. But the price difference is around 37k in Bengaluru which leaves many customers behind. To Justify 37000 more than fz250 is too difficult than justifying ktm 250 price over Gixxer 250 .
Okay time to clarify: 1st: the visor it can be changed and with after market one it looks just beast 2nd: horn who needs horn that blows the ear drums bro, that horn is more than enough 3rd: i have rode bikes with superior liquid cooling and i swear this SF SOCS was way more cooler than so called Liquid cooled engines in its segment 4th: maneuvering this bike is so smooth and easy don't know why you felt it to be hard, that is wrong too 5th: mirrors, for the mirrors i use aftermarket one and they are good and even the stock one were awesome, looks like your sitting posture or height or the position of that mirrors must have affected 6th: vibrations, bro you must be using a new bike with no oil changed and how the hell can you say that i rode my friends bike hard reving it, yes it got some buzz at the top and thats normal for a single cylinder engine And last: the parts were tweaking, u serious bro u must have got some harshly managed SF cause its been almost 2 yrs and still the parts are intact property, not like the fz series Not a suzuki fan boy but from experiencing by myself hands down this bike is one of the most reliable and underrated bike currently in the Indian market Sorry forgot to add one thing who the f needs a bluetooth in a bike, totally rubbish
Don't missguide us I completely disagree with your negative points. First thing this bike don't have any vibrations, mirrors don't vibrate. Second thing, though it's not a liquid cool engine it doesn't heat up like KTMS. Third thing its build quality is very good, it has a light weight chassis. Fourth thing I never ever faced any service issues with Suzuki , it's a giant bike manufacturer in the world and when it comes to visor it is short but we have to wear helmet to protect ourselves from wind blast 😉. I think you are a Honda fanboy who don't launch any sports bike in India or Royale Enfield which vibrates like a hell - Happy Owner of Suzuki Gixxer SF 250 ✌
in my pont of view gixxersf 250 is a excellent bike. in the video they said a lots of cons. let me explain my view 1. visor: its just a 1000 rs case. problem solved 2. indicators: other manufacture also selling with non led light. again we can replace if we want less than 1000rs 3. mirror : we can adjust the mirrors and its a good mirror. giving good view. 4. cooling: oil cooling is 2000's tech and still working fine then what is the point of changeing. and less parts so maintains and coolant money saves. and good cooling comparing with other 250 cc bikes. 5. display: i agree only basic functions are there but its showing good visibility. those are not a reson for not buy this bike. its a good sports tourer in this segment. thank you.
Gixxer sf is best in build quality and engine refinement. Suzuki has nailed it and for both these--the rating is (10/10). Headlight visibility is best in segments. Both pillion and rider posture is very good and no effort. I have seen several happy GIXXER SF owners. Gixxer sf and gixxer sf 250 definitely value for money bike. The small visor is not a problem...there are several after-market visors available, one can easily afford it. ------------------------- This is not a genuine video on this bike ***Most negatives u said don't even exist for this bike****
Who needs bluetooth? Not real riders! Enjoy the ride, forget the world! It's good there are no Led Indicators, I'd rather change a bulb then full indicator. It's cost effective, great job Suzuki!
Pros * Awesome engine. Oil cooling technology in this engine is one of a kind. * Great build quality * Confidence inspiring rider stance . Cons * Diamond frame and box swing arm is not the level of hardware expected by customers. * Can't say it is a very beautiful looking bike(at least in few angles). * BS6 update has toned down power delivery above 100 KM/hr(?). * When Suzuki launched GS150R it had the best in class instrument cluster. Cluster in this bike has even lesser feature than that bike. Different ride modes, real time mileage indicators are all missing in the cluster. * Not a time tested engine. I am skeptical about printed skirt piston, will it worn out within few thousand KM?.
*Question* Gixxer SF or Gixxer SF 250? 65% City rides & 35% touring! If Mileage, Ride quality and Power are to be considered, what would you recommend?
Bro, you have recite us with so many cons but all are excusable, but any day its better than your honda cbr 250r ... Engine is more refined than cbr 250r, power is almost equal to cbr 250r , and mileage is way way better than cbr 250r, freshly designed Suzuki 😀
I'm owning a Gixxer sf from last 1.5 yrs but haven't faced any issues regarding the build quality or service network 😂 , service is very good and from my personal experience parts availablity is also good.
Most people buy faired bikes here just to show off and the fact that one can have same design (Gixxer 155SF) by paying much less is the main reason why 250SF doesn't and won't sell.
I am owning GIXXER250 bs6 2022 model the build quality is amazing , worth for money . 1:15 at last you proved 😂 you know nothing about suzuki build quality. Ask the suzuki owner how was the quality is People don't trust this video for build quality . As a owner of GIXXER250 build quality is another level.
What is wrong with oil cooling .. Reviewer is prejudiced and says it does not have liquid [water] cooling. There is no hard and fast rule as to what method is to be used. Suzuki has brought in this technology after years of research
Just bought one yesterday and coming from a yamaha r15v4 the lack of slipper clutch and quick shifter is missed a lot... but the power is doubled which i like and also the riding is awesome no back strain ... im from NE Mizoram and here with our roads we cannot push it to its max potential.... overall its a very grest beginner bike .... 🏍 8/10 for me ...
Don't know man, I went for a test ride recently, it really sounded like that. Even on the naked bike. May be built quality has dropped. But still better than R15. And yes, still going to buy gixxer.
Matlab kuch bhi ??? 1. Bro, the SOCS (Suzuki oil cooling system) is a patented Suzuki cooling system and it is as good as the liquid cooling system in terms of the efficiency. And we don't have to worry about the coolant related maintenance issues with this bike. 2. LED indicators pe hardly kisi ka dhayan jata hai. 3. Bro, get the screws tightened for the rear view mirror. None of the other reviewers have noticed the vibrations of mirrors. 4. There is an option to change the fitting position of the rear view mirrors (onto the bike steering), mostly all the other bikes have the rear view mirrors on the steering handle. 5. Bhai Horn can be updated later on, Every one has their own preferences for the sound of horn. Since people don't like a manual kick starter on the sport section bikes, suzuki has only given an electronic starter. And a louder horn could have been a problem for the battery. Summary, the more small features you have on your plate, the maintainance cost is going to increase drastically. I appreciate the price of this bike. It's completely worth it. Other bikes might be offering those small features in the same pricing, but they will definitely suffer when it comes to the replacement/repairing/servicing of those parts/features.
Hi team ! Would be great if there a long term ownership review to avoid miscommunication. Fully functional Oil cooled Suzuki's patented is way more pioneered and better than liquid cooled
I own naked version and done 22k km. Heat management is good. Build quality is solid. Performance is good. Only con I I'll say is clutch is little hard. And mainly maintenance is around 900 lol😂😂😂
recently bought Gixxer sf 155 and its Worst bike ever . It's been only 15 days and I'm facing hell of the issues. Out of the blues bike dosen't even start and had to manually walk the bike total 5 times including today. Went to service centre and I was told that battery is damaged. What? Battery got damaged in 15 days? Replaced battery yesterday and Today also bike didn't start. Went to service center again and I was told that there is some wiring issue and this needs a kit replacement. And Guess what, i have to pay 7000 from my own pockets. That's all happened in 15 days. Worst bike ever!

Bro, Liquid cooling is not missing. They purposefully gave SOCS to save weight and decrease complexity with almost similar cooling performance. At least watch the technical presentation video before the review. Mirrors work great on the highway, only in city you will feel some issues. Build quality is one of the best in our market. Short visor and missing electronics are the only worthy downsides you talked about.
How could you even complain about the negative LCD ?. I think you do not have enough knowledge. The meter appears much better when the sunlight increases. Not a proper review from you guys disappointed as a owner.
YOU ANSWER FOR ALL THE QUESTIONS IN MATHS AND TEACHER GIVE 98 MARKS AND SAYS HAND WRITING IS NOT GOOD. LIKE THAT YOUR CONS. 1. Visor - Agree. 2. Mirrors are wide - Disagree. You always complaint that either the mirrors are very short or very wide. Why? 3. Build quality not great and HORN- Disagree. Suzuki makes light weight motorcycles not heavy weight steel bikes like RE. Yes faring is light but no one gonna add load there. Single horn? Is that much important ? And they haven't included side stand kill button so you cannot expect that. 4. Features - Bluetooth connectivity -Disagree . Useless feature i don't want in any motorcycle. 5. Liquid cooling -Disagree . This one got the one of the best oil cooled engines in 250CC bikes. FZ 250 also have the same. But still this can work for long time. 6. LED indicators - Disagree. I can live with that. No issues. No body is gonna say no to this bike because of indicator. 7. Service network - Most of the districts have Suzuki showrooms and services. If you could have mentioned the service quality i would stand with you.
You really had no proper negative points and you were nitpicking . Honestly, the only cons I see are a missing slipper clutch at this price point and there is an issue of breakpads wearing very soon. Else this a fantastic bike.
The weak horn and the side stand thing are both pluses in my opinion. I hate people who honk, and I rarely honk myself. I like starting the bike on the side stand, so that the engine oil gets to circulate before I start moving. Regarding build quality, I took a test drive yesterday, and it is amazing. The engine sounds good too. The mirror sucked compared to my sf 150
Wtf dude don't mislead people. I have done 300 kms in 4 hours and 520 kmsk(100 kms ghat) in 9 hours on my ride on successive days I haven't faced any heating and any vibrations My crusing speed was 100 to 115 Very happy for selecting this bike.
I feel the bike in it's class compared to others are far better. Engine,breaks,power delivery are the best only thing I wd have wanted are bluetooth connection and a slipper clutch with smoother gear shifts.
no 250cc motorcycle in India are as balanced as Gixxer sf250 u have performance , punchy engine , refined , good build quality , comfort and sexy looking bike great for photos and posing ,superbright led , cool sound, good handling , super breaking and finally which other 250cc is bad at is heat management which is great in this motorcycle heat is very well managed by suzuki oil colling and sjcs(suzuki jet cooling system) Yes agreed visor design could have been better but that is not a big deal other than that I don't feel pretty much negative For 2lakhs and with above features I believe it is a great deal compared to other 250 cc in market
This bike doesn't need liquid cooling I've owned many liquid cooled bikes big and small engines alike and the Gixxer 250 in my opinion stays alot cooler than the rest
Not at all convinced with your cons..socs is the best oil cooling system compared to any other bikes..this bike gives best mileage among its competitors like ktm’s…The engine is very refined and build quality is awesome..dont talk like this..!!
So if I have a suzuki showroom near my house should I buy the gixxer? Or is there any other problems relating to there after sales service, availability of spare parts etc?
Bro ! Service is experience is variety from place to place & every company have their issues with service center For 2.L + , no other bike cannot match what 250 SF is offering , ( indicator, visors are easy accesories which we can buy )
The after-sales services and not have liquid cooling is against the bike!☹💔 Long-running reviews can help the bike! Tough race against KTM! There was Hond CBR gave the liquid cooling with a price check! Build quality of the gixxer is better than KTM! But can't expect everything under 250000 lacs!😌💯👍🏾
That “keeechu keeechu” at the end had me good 😂🤣 Overall a good review! Liked the pros and cons, perhaps the comparison part could be said rather than showed in a blink 😅
Let's me tell you 3 cons which users are complaining, easy Google search tells you that. 1) Parts and build quality 2) Gearbox issue like old gixxers 3) Refinement and vibrations With rate 2.08 lakh on road Delhi, equally to CB350 and the list goes on
I see a lot of comments blasting the anchor and the motor beam... Things he mentioned are his personal experiences and opinions.. You can agree or disagree with it.. But don't do personal attacks by calling him a potato and idiot etc etc If you are so talented, why don't you shoot a video and educate the people? If that's not your job, just go ahead with ur life instead of criticising someone who is doing that
On the other side that feature can cause you a breakdown for no reason if the sensor malfunctions in rains or mid pools in our Indian roads. The Negatives he mentioned are completely worthless.

This Gixxer does not look bad but by no means is this bike a headturner. It is just okay, there is no design language.....simply throwing in a bunch of fairing and oddly cut LED headlamps with "8 sections" do not make the bike look good.
You need to look out for better way to portray the pros and cons. It was better if pros came first and after that the cons and reasons not to buy it while comparing it to rivals.

I think side stand cutoff shouldn't be there. My friends bike fell during an accident and the side stand was damaged. The bike refused to start in the middle of nowhere.
The person reviewing this bike doesn't even know what he is reviewing. It has the fattest tyre in the segment of 250cc. Dominar 250 has 140. This is the most refined 250cc bike with good amount of punch in this range. Can ride for 3-4 hours without any discomfort. This is the reason why I dislike motorbeam. They don't know what they are reviewing and they don't even know how to review.
Actually it doesn't need liquid cooling. Its Socs is equally efficient as a liquid cooling system and also maintainance is low due to that
Yeah, at that price. Your brain needs liquid cooling.
@@lokeshkumar-jj1dw 😂 ignore such people...even suzuki doesn't offer abs, they will say that abs doesn't need for suzuki bikes as it is disc brake by japan😂😂

After seeing this review, I decided to buy this bike. Thanks for making me laugh. I got a better visor. I got led indicators for you.
sahi hai lol and horn is replaceble too and phone stand lagado kaafi hai
Basically Engine cooling mechanism is there to keep the optimum temperature . If Susuki is able to make it happen why is that a negative ???? There are Orange and Red MCs out there with all those fancy "Liquid Cooling" in feature list but disappointing in real world testing . Pros or Cons , They should be valid & relevant.
Annoying reasons given for not buying. Are they even negatives in the first place? Its because you guys complain about lack of those features that suzuki is king in cars. They give all useless features and compromise on safety.
Focus on how the bike is to ride and whether its good as a package rather than nitpicking and finding useless reasons to not buy it
The reason it's not selling much because of the design sharing with the 150's, Suzuki needs to re-design the visor & the Instrument cluster which are way smaller for our likings.
I have Gixxer SF MotoGP edition 2015 model. Engine still works as good as first time. Japanese are too brilliant.👍
I got the sp edition...same for me
One of best built quality in this segment
Guys trust me... This is the worst review i ever saw about this bike.. I have sf 250 bs6.. he didnt even said perfectly half about this bike.
Only missing in this bike is slipper clutch and side stand cutoff feature.. who ever that reviewer is.. do some research buddy,, SOCS is much efficient as liquid cooling.. once i rode 130 kms without break.. i saw just warmness not too heat. Instrument cluster is awesome even in direct sunlight. Can even handle easily in traffic. Refinement is great for 250CC and finally i never saw such fuel efficiency in 250cc bike like this.. average im getting around 36-38kmpl..disc size is front 310mm and rear 240mm
.
U lost one subscriber
Dude watch the video fully.... Coz he said it doesn't heat at all in "GOOD"....
@@sreeathikesh7209 yeah buddy.. but he didnt done proper research before that video.. He dont know some specifications
Only reason why Gixxer 250s not selling due to 98% similarity with 150cc sibling. Why the hell I should invest 2lks to look like a 150cc machine ! 😭
@@JC-nx5xx i accept wt u said buddy.. but if u prefer over bajaj 250cc or ktm's refinement.. suzuki is best in the segment. my experience
@@mrg3473 if you consider heavily overpriced ktms and overweight dominars then Gixxer is way ahead for the price. But if you consider fz250 then Gixxer should have been 15-20k difference in on road price. But the price difference is around 37k in Bengaluru which leaves many customers behind. To Justify 37000 more than fz250 is too difficult than justifying ktm 250 price over Gixxer 250 .
Okay time to clarify:
1st: the visor it can be changed and with after market one it looks just beast
2nd: horn who needs horn that blows the ear drums bro, that horn is more than enough
3rd: i have rode bikes with superior liquid cooling and i swear this SF SOCS was way more cooler than so called Liquid cooled engines in its segment
4th: maneuvering this bike is so smooth and easy don't know why you felt it to be hard, that is wrong too
5th: mirrors, for the mirrors i use aftermarket one and they are good and even the stock one were awesome, looks like your sitting posture or height or the position of that mirrors must have affected
6th: vibrations, bro you must be using a new bike with no oil changed and how the hell can you say that i rode my friends bike hard reving it, yes it got some buzz at the top and thats normal for a single cylinder engine
And last: the parts were tweaking, u serious bro u must have got some harshly managed SF cause its been almost 2 yrs and still the parts are intact property, not like the fz series
Not a suzuki fan boy but from experiencing by myself hands down this bike is one of the most reliable and underrated bike currently in the Indian market
Sorry forgot to add one thing who the f needs a bluetooth in a bike, totally rubbish
Totally agreed....
Suzuki 250 SF easy go 151km/h top speed in bs6
Don't missguide us
I completely disagree with your negative points. First thing this bike don't have any vibrations, mirrors don't vibrate. Second thing, though it's not a liquid cool engine it doesn't heat up like KTMS. Third thing its build quality is very good, it has a light weight chassis. Fourth thing I never ever faced any service issues with Suzuki
, it's a giant bike manufacturer in the world and when it comes to visor it is short but we have to wear helmet to protect ourselves from wind blast 😉. I think you are a Honda fanboy who don't launch any sports bike in India or Royale Enfield which vibrates like a hell
- Happy Owner of Suzuki Gixxer SF 250 ✌
in my pont of view gixxersf 250 is a excellent bike.
in the video they said a lots of cons. let me explain my view
1. visor: its just a 1000 rs case. problem solved
2. indicators: other manufacture also selling with non led light. again we can replace if we want less than 1000rs
3. mirror : we can adjust the mirrors and its a good mirror. giving good view.
4. cooling: oil cooling is 2000's tech and still working fine then what is the point of changeing. and less parts so maintains and coolant money saves. and good cooling comparing with other 250 cc bikes.
5. display: i agree only basic functions are there but its showing good visibility.
those are not a reson for not buy this bike. its a good sports tourer in this segment.
thank you.
Yes bro! U r right ! Bigger Oil cooing with a fan to
Gixxer sf is best in build quality and engine refinement. Suzuki has nailed it and for both these--the rating is (10/10).
Headlight visibility is best in segments.
Both pillion and rider posture is very good and no effort.
I have seen several happy GIXXER SF owners.
Gixxer sf and gixxer sf 250 definitely value for money bike.
The small visor is not a problem...there are several after-market visors available, one can easily afford it.
-------------------------
This is not a genuine video on this bike
***Most negatives u said don't even exist for this bike****
Who needs bluetooth? Not real riders! Enjoy the ride, forget the world! It's good there are no Led Indicators, I'd rather change a bulb then full indicator. It's cost effective, great job Suzuki!
Pros
* Awesome engine. Oil cooling technology in this engine is one of a kind.
* Great build quality
* Confidence inspiring rider stance .
Cons
* Diamond frame and box swing arm is not the level of hardware expected by customers.
* Can't say it is a very beautiful looking bike(at least in few angles).
* BS6 update has toned down power delivery above 100 KM/hr(?).
* When Suzuki launched GS150R it had the best in class instrument cluster. Cluster in this bike has even lesser feature than that bike. Different ride modes, real time mileage indicators are all missing in the cluster.
* Not a time tested engine. I am skeptical about printed skirt piston, will it worn out within few thousand KM?.
3D printed treatment on piston isn't new. It has been used by many and it is time tested. So, don't worry about piston's life.
engineers are more skeptical than you.... so trust them!!!
Still happy with my 8 years old CBR 250R ABS ❤
Love that Honda Engine and Stability.
Bro honda hai woh... im sure you are gonna comment the same thing after 20 years as well !!!!! 🙊🤘🏼 honda and yamaha engines are eternals
*Question*
Gixxer SF or Gixxer SF 250?
65% City rides & 35% touring!
If Mileage, Ride quality and Power are to be considered, what would you recommend?
Bro, you have recite us with so many cons but all are excusable, but any day its better than your honda cbr 250r ...
Engine is more refined than cbr 250r, power is almost equal to cbr 250r , and mileage is way way better than cbr 250r, freshly designed Suzuki 😀
I'm owning a Gixxer sf from last 1.5 yrs but haven't faced any issues regarding the build quality or service network 😂 , service is very good and from my personal experience parts availablity is also good.
Not good . I got gs150 r parts on order only not hand to hand in 15 days
Most people buy faired bikes here just to show off and the fact that one can have same design (Gixxer 155SF) by paying much less is the main reason why 250SF doesn't and won't sell.
Then no ktm would be selling even 125 looks like 390 apart from sticker
Dude you missed out the slipper clutch. It's a must needed feature for sf250
It seems they rate Side stand cut off sensor and LED indicators compared to slipper clutch 😂
Slipper clutch is for new riders. If you have experience on machines like this you don't really need one.
Yeah, Slipper clutch is essential for 250cc segment
Slipper clutch is a useless gimmick if you know how to ride.
Suzuki sf 250 is the best bike under 250cc segment..it's look,power,mileage, build quality,value for money superb❤
I am owning GIXXER250 bs6 2022 model the build quality is amazing , worth for money .
1:15 at last you proved 😂 you know nothing about suzuki build quality.
Ask the suzuki owner how was the quality is
People don't trust this video for build quality .
As a owner of GIXXER250 build quality is another level.
What is wrong with oil cooling ..
Reviewer is prejudiced and says it does not have liquid [water] cooling.
There is no hard and fast rule as to what method is to be used. Suzuki has brought in this technology after years of research
Whole Motorbeam team is best in nitpicking especially on Bajaj and Suzuki motorcycles.
They love everything about TVS.
Just bought one yesterday and coming from a yamaha r15v4 the lack of slipper clutch and quick shifter is missed a lot... but the power is doubled which i like and also the riding is awesome no back strain ... im from NE Mizoram and here with our roads we cannot push it to its max potential.... overall its a very grest beginner bike .... 🏍 8/10 for me ...
All hail JOAN MIR AND ALEX RINS !!!!
I think you have a faulty bike ,that sound from body panel is not coming from any of our bikes
Exactly man..
Something seems to be nt right with his bike, no one has complained about it in our owners group
@@fanbhagatsinghda6200 yeah dude , everyone is enjoying our bikes,motorbeam we request you not to knit pick things and say as reasons for not to buy
Don't know man, I went for a test ride recently, it really sounded like that. Even on the naked bike.
May be built quality has dropped. But still better than R15.
And yes, still going to buy gixxer.
I just love how honest you are
I never felt rear view mirrors are not good. I'm using this bike from last 2 years
Matlab kuch bhi ???
1. Bro, the SOCS (Suzuki oil cooling system) is a patented Suzuki cooling system and it is as good as the liquid cooling system in terms of the efficiency. And we don't have to worry about the coolant related maintenance issues with this bike.
2. LED indicators pe hardly kisi ka dhayan jata hai.
3. Bro, get the screws tightened for the rear view mirror. None of the other reviewers have noticed the vibrations of mirrors.
4. There is an option to change the fitting position of the rear view mirrors (onto the bike steering), mostly all the other bikes have the rear view mirrors on the steering handle.
5. Bhai Horn can be updated later on, Every one has their own preferences for the sound of horn. Since people don't like a manual kick starter on the sport section bikes, suzuki has only given an electronic starter. And a louder horn could have been a problem for the battery.
Summary, the more small features you have on your plate, the maintainance cost is going to increase drastically. I appreciate the price of this bike. It's completely worth it. Other bikes might be offering those small features in the same pricing, but they will definitely suffer when it comes to the replacement/repairing/servicing of those parts/features.
Consider the cost as well. You want liquid cooling for this price. Build quality is one of the best available in this price and 250cc segment.
Watch ns200 liquid cooled
Same power almost 6 gear
Less price
He is right liquid cooled should be given
@@anshulchauhan5587 it is 200 cc and it is naked bike unlike suzuki gixxer sf.
Hi team ! Would be great if there a long term ownership review to avoid miscommunication. Fully functional Oil cooled Suzuki's patented is way more pioneered and better than liquid cooled
oil is a liquid too.... you mean water cooled vs oil cooled
Gixxer sf is the adopted kid of Suzuki...it is most potential but less loved..why don't they upgrade this beast
Motorbeam is becoming the IGN of motorbike reviews
i own this bike man , & believe me it is best
u didn't mention the great fuel economy it gives
it easily returns 33-36 even in harsh driving 😀
True broo
I own naked version and done 22k km.
Heat management is good.
Build quality is solid.
Performance is good.
Only con I I'll say is clutch is little hard.
And mainly maintenance is around 900 lol😂😂😂
How much milage you got in city nad Highway?
recently bought Gixxer sf 155 and its Worst bike ever . It's been only 15 days and I'm facing hell of the issues. Out of the blues bike dosen't even start and had to manually walk the bike total 5 times including today. Went to service centre and I was told that battery is damaged. What? Battery got damaged in 15 days? Replaced battery yesterday and Today also bike didn't start. Went to service center again and I was told that there is some wiring issue and this needs a kit replacement. And Guess what, i have to pay 7000 from my own pockets. That's all happened in 15 days. Worst bike ever!
There is a Gixxer 250 naked bs4 in my area and the owner said that spare parts are almost not available all the time. Even he uses Gixxer 150 brake pads in 250 due to unavailability. If it's a Suzuki premium showroom only then you buy it. Otherwise don't. Get 150s
This guy make that bike underated
Bro, Liquid cooling is not missing. They purposefully gave SOCS to save weight and decrease complexity with almost similar cooling performance. At least watch the technical presentation video before the review.
Mirrors work great on the highway, only in city you will feel some issues.
Build quality is one of the best in our market.
Short visor and missing electronics are the only worthy downsides you talked about.
Do you need liquid cooling if it doesn't heat up?
How could you even complain about the negative LCD ?. I think you do not have enough knowledge. The meter appears much better when the sunlight increases. Not a proper review from you guys disappointed as a owner.
Thank you. Watching from Philippines 🙏🏽✌🏽❤️
YOU ANSWER FOR ALL THE QUESTIONS IN MATHS AND TEACHER GIVE 98 MARKS AND SAYS HAND WRITING IS NOT GOOD. LIKE THAT YOUR CONS.
1. Visor - Agree.
2. Mirrors are wide - Disagree. You always complaint that either the mirrors are very short or very wide. Why?
3. Build quality not great and HORN- Disagree. Suzuki makes light weight motorcycles not heavy weight steel bikes like RE. Yes faring is light but no one gonna add load there. Single horn? Is that much important ? And they haven't included side stand kill button so you cannot expect that.
4. Features - Bluetooth connectivity -Disagree . Useless feature i don't want in any motorcycle.
5. Liquid cooling -Disagree . This one got the one of the best oil cooled engines in 250CC bikes. FZ 250 also have the same. But still this can work for long time.
6. LED indicators - Disagree. I can live with that. No issues. No body is gonna say no to this bike because of indicator.
7. Service network - Most of the districts have Suzuki showrooms and services. If you could have mentioned the service quality i would stand with you.
You really had no proper negative points and you were nitpicking . Honestly, the only cons I see are a missing slipper clutch at this price point and there is an issue of breakpads wearing very soon. Else this a fantastic bike.
140 kmph?,this reached 154 kmph on odo
I have ridden it on 153 kmph
Speed error is there that's why 140 kmph
@@anish_R1 but he said that the top speed is 140kmph on the meter
@@castrohussainbose1988 I just guessed even I don't know but bro go see dinos vault review video of Gixxer sf 250 on UA-cam he has ridden 140+ kmph
The weak horn and the side stand thing are both pluses in my opinion.
I hate people who honk, and I rarely honk myself.
I like starting the bike on the side stand, so that the engine oil gets to circulate before I start moving.
Regarding build quality, I took a test drive yesterday, and it is amazing. The engine sounds good too.
The mirror sucked compared to my sf 150
Gixxer SF 250 or svartpilen 250 which is fun motorcycle to ride like performance & handling?
Sf250
Lots of hate and anger there bro..
Wtf dude don't mislead people.
I have done 300 kms in 4 hours and
520 kmsk(100 kms ghat) in 9 hours on my ride on successive days
I haven't faced any heating and any vibrations
My crusing speed was 100 to 115
Very happy for selecting this bike.
I feel the bike in it's class compared to others are far better. Engine,breaks,power delivery are the best only thing I wd have wanted are bluetooth connection and a slipper clutch with smoother gear shifts.
no 250cc motorcycle in India are as balanced as Gixxer sf250 u have performance , punchy engine , refined , good build quality , comfort and sexy looking bike great for photos and posing ,superbright led , cool sound, good handling , super breaking and finally which other 250cc is bad at is heat management which is great in this motorcycle heat is very well managed by suzuki oil colling and sjcs(suzuki jet cooling system)
Yes agreed visor design could have been better but that is not a big deal other than that I don't feel pretty much negative
For 2lakhs and with above features I believe it is a great deal compared to other 250 cc in market
04:41 actual 0 to 💯 time is 8 min 34 sec.
Motorbeam must have a meme page also 😂😂
Build quality b bohat achi hai
Aur option diya hai handle pe side mirror laga sakte hai
He wanted bike should be made of titanium
This bike doesn't need liquid cooling I've owned many liquid cooled bikes big and small engines alike and the Gixxer 250 in my opinion stays alot cooler than the rest
First Hindi reviewer that speaks English clearly...
U kidding me ?? Suzuki were the one who pioneered oil cooling and they have mastered it
Visor is not a major problem we can sort out this problem by changing db visor
Looks like the not to buy list was very hard to make so they r just nitpicking 😂😂
Nice video though 👍🏾👍🏾🔥🔥
Not at all convinced with your cons..socs is the best oil cooling system compared to any other bikes..this bike gives best mileage among its competitors like ktm’s…The engine is very refined and build quality is awesome..dont talk like this..!!
So if I have a suzuki showroom near my house should I buy the gixxer? Or is there any other problems relating to there after sales service, availability of spare parts etc?
Bro ! Service is experience is variety from place to place & every company have their issues with service center
For 2.L + , no other bike cannot match what 250 SF is offering , ( indicator, visors are easy accesories which we can buy )
Such a amazing machine,, I m enjoying...
Major Reason Is Availability Of Spare Parts.. My God, Dats A Dream 4 Me Wen I Had Da Suzuki Zues...!
How much milage it would provide in city and as well as Highway?
The after-sales services and not have liquid cooling is against the bike!☹💔 Long-running reviews can help the bike! Tough race against KTM! There was Hond CBR gave the liquid cooling with a price check! Build quality of the gixxer is better than KTM! But can't expect everything under 250000 lacs!😌💯👍🏾
Well said bro !
That “keeechu keeechu” at the end had me good 😂🤣
Overall a good review! Liked the pros and cons, perhaps the comparison part could be said rather than showed in a blink 😅
Let's me tell you 3 cons which users are complaining, easy Google search tells you that.
1) Parts and build quality
2) Gearbox issue like old gixxers
3) Refinement and vibrations
With rate 2.08 lakh on road Delhi, equally to CB350 and the list goes on
My favourite bike
This motorcycle increased people's want to buy a CBR250r even though it is discontinued
Does a 390 get dual horns??????????????
I see a lot of comments blasting the anchor and the motor beam...
Things he mentioned are his personal experiences and opinions.. You can agree or disagree with it..
But don't do personal attacks by calling him a potato and idiot etc etc
If you are so talented, why don't you shoot a video and educate the people? If that's not your job, just go ahead with ur life instead of criticising someone who is doing that
Side stand engine cut-off..... dude it's 2020...Dude ..u really need tat feature ,..??
On the other side that feature can cause you a breakdown for no reason if the sensor malfunctions in rains or mid pools in our Indian roads.
The Negatives he mentioned are completely worthless.
Motorbeam can u read my mind....inwas thinking of buying it and want a review🔥🔥
I wonder how this channel got 800K+ subscribers. Do some analysis before giving a review.
It's exhaust note come to live when ur at redline. Its just mamameya
Thanks for pointing out the tiny windshield. Suzuki should do something about it.
What about the sloping seat? Hide long can ride this bike comfortably?
What we need here in the Philippines is Expressway Legal 400cc above. Can you lanch Suzuki Gixxer sf 400 same that design ang size.
Dhanil pronounces Ta (as in Batata) as Ta as in Tatyawinchu 😅🤣… Bluetooth, Notice, a few words.. hey man, great v log though, you are awesome. Gotta keep your points in mind..🤘🏼 Happy new year to entire MB team 🙌🏼❤️⚡️
This Gixxer does not look bad but by no means is this bike a headturner. It is just okay, there is no design language.....simply throwing in a bunch of fairing and oddly cut LED headlamps with "8 sections" do not make the bike look good.
Assisted slipper clutch?
This bike rumored will be launched here in Indonesia, soon on this Q1 2021
You need to look out for better way to portray the pros and cons. It was better if pros came first and after that the cons and reasons not to buy it while comparing it to rivals.
