Suzuki Gixxer SF 250 Detailed Review - India Strell For Bengaluru sales and test ride, please contact Nine Star Suzuki Near HOSA Road Junction. (Ph 9900073002)
What's the city mileage? How's the power delivery in city and for touring? I am considering buying this over rr310 simply because rr310 is way out of budget both for its price and maintenance.
@@prathamj2215 since its fuel injected, mileage totally depends on your riding style. If you ride under 5k rpm, you'll get approximately 34-35kmpl. Highway around 37-38. It delivers excellent power. And it's quite controllable unlike any KTMs. Its an excellent tourer. I would suggest you take a test ride and get the feel for it yourself. I don't regret purchasing this motorcycle at all.
What about the Engine refinement?did you ever feel any kind of stress on your motor when revving the engine high as it has SOHC ?also I'm bit concerned about its parts availablity. let me know the whether it has a punchy mid and decent low end torque. Anyway the international sibling of sf has an eye catching design.Gsx250R😌.May be they have done this as a part of price cutting.
@@MyVault The benefit of SOHC is the low end torque. I doubt it affects the vibration level compared to DOHC. The engine is quite refined until 6k rpm. After that, you might feel some vibration on the footpegs. Other than that, Suzuki is known globally for it's reliability. So, I'm not worried about engine durability. GSX250R has an inline two engine, but it's powered down. In fact, westerners wish the Indian models were available in their countries. Design wise, you may be right though.
Bro does it burn's engine oil? My gixxer 150 burns alot, and usually oil level is at low after 2000 -2500km. I have tried different fully senthitic oil's but same result. Got my half engine replaced but not much improvement.
Grrrrrr... I waited almost 2 years for a quarter liter bike from Suzuki and they released it in 2019. I already bought Intruder in 2017 and let me wait for 2 more years for Intruder 250 cc :D and will replace it . Totally forget, Thanks for the detailed review mate ! Keep riding !
4:08 Detailed observation ... I’ve felt in my FZ 25 too a bit ... never seen a reviewer mentioning this 😎👍 BTW no mention on FZ 25 when it comes to competition 😈
FZ25 is good but only when you compare it to 150/160cc bikes. For a 250, it lacks power and a crucial 6th (cruising) gear. For anyone looking at the FZ25, the naked Gixxer 250 is a much better bike!
I dropped my gixxer sf 250 once .....had to replace left fairing , left handle bar , left indicator , little bit of repair on the tail section, gear changing lever ......It costed me around 4300 rs to get all these done
At 4.38 you said that rear brake was average. With this, a memory struck in my mind Strell Brother. It was 2013 when one of my friend bought Yamaha Fazer 150. When I rode it I was shocked to see that the rear brake (which was a drum set up) was horibally weak. When used alone, it was not able to stop bike even if I almost stood on it. It just slowed the bike with a pace trains in India slow down. I thought that that was a problem with that particular bike. But soon when my another friend bought a Bajaj Pulsar 220 I found that, to a great extent, the rear disk brake of that particular P220 had the same problem. Since then I have noticed this phenomenon in various UA-cam videos where the reviewers notice that the bikes equipped with front disk brakes usually have very weak rear brake- irrespective of the rear brake being a disc or a drum. (Of course there are some exceptions though- I have rode Honda Hornet 160 2017 model and Honda Unicorn 2021 BS6 model where the rear drum brakes were having excellent bite and were able to stop the bike from high speeds alone.) My question is- why?? Do the manufacturers purposely equip the bikes with front disc brakes with a weak rear brake to encourage riders to use the front brake more frequently as the correct way to use front and rear brakes in the ratio of 70:30 or 80:20. Or is there any other reason? Please reply brother.
Bro does it burn's engine oil? My gixxer 150 burns alot, and usually oil level is at low after 2000 -2500km. I have tried different fully senthitic oil's but same result. Got my half engine replaced but not much improvement.
Hi Strell, I waited for this bike touring review for long time. After waiting for long and still didn't see an video from you. I made up my mind and finally i bought it on 25th December.
@@user-rh6bj3nl9s There is no vibration at low end and mid end. However, you get a light vibration for few seconds under the seat. While cruising at 45kmph and shift to 6th gear. Just for few second and vanish. I own 250cc and I get mileage of 37 when riding 100kmph and above and 43 around 80 to 90kmph in highway
@@Praveen9790 oh thanks a lot for ur quick response bro & do u face any rattling sounds or brake jamming issues & I got. An offer to buy an sf250 bs4 is it good to go am so confused but I love the bike Pls pls cud u suggest me
No cbr in market i want to buy but no dealer is selling it in chhattisgarh , looks like its gone and not comming, today a guy told me honda has stopped manufacturing it
I own one of the same colour. As a regular office rider(Hinjawadi IT park) I felt some heating only once(very heavy traffic, more than 1 hr ). On Highways(Pune to Mumbai) the only thing limiting this bike are bad drivers/squids and bad roads. It is really fun to ride this bike. Biggest gripes would be the fragile paint quality, tiny windshield and lack of proper frame sliders. Oh, and I didn't like the service center support, they seem to be poorly trained/lazy. Apart from that, there are no other issues in my bike [touchwood]. Edit: You are the only one praising the pillion seat :P. Even I found it very comfy(test rode as pillion too :P)
Hey there! I am trying to get Gixxer sf 250 2022 variant in this exact color. Can you tell what’s this color called? I was under impression that this color was reserved for test machines only.
@@iamstrellexactly .. In Bangalore everything's extra mate.. Including onroad price.:)..am having naked version of it.. loving it.. Even they charged me almost same for 2nd service
Owned this bike for 3 months now. Was considering between Dominar and SF 250. Some observations: 1- Average is around 35 2- Not a fan of the rear tyre grip. Feels like the bike might skid when I drive on wet roads or sludge. 3- Rear seat is going to be very uncomfortable for longer durations. 4- Due to low presence in the market, a lot of people will ask you about the bike. 5- First service cost something like 700 rupees. 6- The rear tyre has locked up a couple of times despite of ABS. 7- Horn used in the bike is like an Activa or Access, just slightly louder. 8- Doesn't heat up if it's constantly moving. Might heat up a little in bumper to bumper traffic. 9- Cost me around 1.86 lakhs. Overall happy with the product
Hey strell bro. I was really happy to meet you today on kolar Bangalore highway❤️👍 Man I forgot to take a selfie with you, at least with you wearing your helmet (wisor closed).
I test driven this bike yesterday... Great bike... in my opinion everything u said was correct except pillion seat comfort... One major issue is wind blast like u said. Wind hitting us at a speed of 70+ 😢 I am dropping the plan to buy SF 250.
Hi Strell, I own a Gixxer 250 (naked one) and I'm really impressed with it in terms of all aspects and especially mileage... I've done a 500kms ride on it and I received a mileage of 44kmpl from it even after keeping up at speeds of 120-125kmph continuously.. The new 250 Gixxer series has completely been awesome..
I think I have rode the same bike that you have taken for test ride .. got my bike delivered in June 2019 near Hosa road. SF 250 is amazing, linear power, well balanced in every area. Only issue I faced is with my rear brakes Making rattling sound and high vibration on brake pedal only when I apply hard brake.. Suzuki says it's cuz of dual channel abs. I still feel it's a fault cuz the vibration and sound is so loud that when it happens it makes us want to release the brake immediately which is a big safety concern specially when u apply an emergency brake. To all the 250 owners, plz let me know if ur facing any such issues.
Please have your brake pad and disc checked by a different mechanic. There is a possibility that either of these could have a slight damage and that is causing the problems when the wheel is moving in high speed. Also pls check the wheel alignment and fitment.
@@iamstrell thanks for replying bro.. Yes I think I should show it to another Suzuki service center. The Hosa road manager Rao was involved in this, he had kept the bike for few days, did lot of testing and comparing with other sf250 and then came to such conclusion so I dint bother to go anywhere else. Before the gaurentee period expires I will check with another Suzuki center.
@@AjithKumar-fw9nd Facts are facts. I ride with 150-200 cc and bullets. So 80-85 Cruising speed. And 6th gear on thay speed is just as smooth as idle. So 40+ is a piece of cake.
@@1993dragonite probably the first person who isn't a crazy Busa fanboy I've seen on the internet.. I still think this bike looks MUCH better than other 250s when seen from the sides.. the front, not so much .😣
@@prazwalkarkee1204 same bro....from side it looks good but from front👀👎.. But what if we have a detachable cover for front headlight? The headlight would be similar to ninja 300 .
I agree to most of your points. But I should mention that here Breaking is not so good. Front brakes lacks the Bite. You need to do use both breaks simultaneously. I have done 2k kilometers on this bike till now and would recommend to all riders who are aspiring to drive 250cc engine
Hope you are fine and staying safe, After everything comes to normal which I wish from the bottom of my heart, I want to see a Dominar 250 detailed and touring review, and comparison with Gixxer SF 250
Hey Strell, as you are saying it's a sports tourer, how would the bike work if we take it to off roads? Would it be a survivor or it would be a bad idea to do that?
Hey strell can you do a review on apache rtr 180 or 160 the 2V version ? An pure sound video will be welcone as well , if you can make it happen please do it .....
Suzuki Gixxer sf 150 2019 is similar to this bike I feel or do u find any difference or drawbacks compared to this...is it worth buying any vibration issue in long term
Hae strell.. I'm eyeing on getting one once the lockdown is over but it gets tough choosing when compared to the Duke 250. My riding would include mon-fri office commute and a bit of weekend trips. Budget around 2 lakhs. What would u recommend? (also feel like dukes are too common on Indian roads these days but love it's power)
A couple for reviews on other channels mention that the brakes in the Gixxer 250 is pretty bad. I even read a few blog posts that say that the brakes are not that good. I would love an owner's review regarding the brakes. @strell, if you ever do a review on the naked Gixxer 250, i'd love to hear more about how the brakes are
Hi, Could you please give me a rough price range of 2012 CBR 250 abs variant clocked @ 45kKm (i know which depends on the vehicle condition) or should I consider 2018 model RTR 2004v (Matt red) completed around 18K km ??
How are the front brakes ,many reviews say that they aren't good i am a little concerned about it as iam also planning to buy Gixxer 250 . Thanks in advance.
Bro great video, was waiting for your review since a long time. Got my bike today 5PM, unfortunately enough, before you uploaded this one... Loving the bike already. One quick question though for anyone who reads this comment - Do we have a separate owner's manual for Gixxer SF 250. My dealer gave me the owner manual which had only Gixxer SF mentioned and he said that this same for both the models (155 & 250)
Bro, will the motorcycle be great for cruising on the highway at 80km/h average, for long trips (approx 36km)? Also I'm 1m65cm, will the seat height be okay? Thanks in advance.
What are your thoughts when you compare this with CBR 250R... Is it better, is it lacking in things like engine power, refinement.... Would love to know that from you... This would help understand SF250 characteristics better.... Would you prefer this bike to CBR250R if they are available at the same time....? Please let us know....
Dude, first the abs variant of cbr 250r cost 35k more than the sf 250 I'm not hating on cbr but it's quite outdated ,no major update after 2016 only little cosmetic change from new sticker But the CBR 250R is obviously better than the sf 250 in terms of performance and refinement . But I can't digest the fact that Honda is taking Indian market for granted. They are launching new models everywhere. But in India they are selling an outdated machine . But if you are interested in the performance of cbr ,you are better off waiting for the cbr 300r . It will probably launch in India in the second half of 2020 But(again) expect a price tag similar to ninja 300 So the cbr 250r is out of picture, for the price sf 250 is well worth it .Suzuki's oil cooling is very good , it can be compared to similar priced liquid cooling. At last the Suzuki design is inspired from the old school katana.
For Bengaluru sales and test ride, please contact Nine Star Suzuki Near HOSA Road Junction. (Ph 9900073002)
Free servicing costs around 650 rupees only + no headache of maintaining liquid cooling engine + refined engine 😍 + smooth gearbox 👍

RR is more powerful and sporty. I will go for an RR just for that reason. 😊

Ajith Kumar you can still book and order from selected honda showroom.
@@HomerSarma123 at what final price do you get the bike?
Ajith Kumar 2.18 lakhs.
@@HomerSarma123 okãy
How is the pillion comfort compared to the CBR? My pillion loves the CBR but need to know if she will be happy here as well
Super
Hi strell, would you review the naked version of the bike??? . The one called Gixxer 250, how different is it from the SF.
Please also do a detailed review for sf 150 too.
If have to choose between mojo 300 abs and this bike which one would you choose? Considering all the aspects...
Hey, planning to buy the GoPro Hero 8? I'm actually confused between the 7 and 8. Can you help me out with it?
Saludos desde Colombia, Buen video
Hey dude , what about its seating position and trail over a long ride?
Hae strell..
I'm eyeing on getting one once the lockdown is over but it gets tough choosing when compared to the Duke 250. My riding would include mon-fri office commute and a bit of weekend trips. Budget around 2 lakhs. What would u recommend? (also feel like dukes are too common on Indian roads these days but love it's power)
Vitpilen,swatpilen are also good options if you love duke
Plz do a detail review now between fz25 S and gixxer sf for long tours on highways in India in terms of their capabilities and control. Thanks
A couple for reviews on other channels mention that the brakes in the Gixxer 250 is pretty bad. I even read a few blog posts that say that the brakes are not that good. I would love an owner's review regarding the brakes.
@strell, if you ever do a review on the naked Gixxer 250, i'd love to hear more about how the brakes are
Strell you need to make a video on the SF 150
Hi, Could you please give me a rough price range of 2012 CBR 250 abs variant clocked @ 45kKm (i know which depends on the vehicle condition) or should I consider 2018 model RTR 2004v (Matt red) completed around 18K km ??
Please upload a proper mileage test video on city and highway.
bro which is better , cbr 250 vs gixxer250??? a separate comparison video would be appreciated but a comment with facts would also be great.
Bro do gixxer 150sf I am waiting ur review
What would u suggest to a college student - Gixxer 250 or Svartpilen 250 ....
Bro...how is the gear box and cluch....? Is it good?
What alternative can be used to use a different wind visor ? Is it possible ?
Same bike mystek prateek used for his review..,,😃♥️
How are the front brakes ,many reviews say that they aren't good i am a little concerned about it as iam also planning to buy Gixxer 250 . Thanks in advance.
Bro great video, was waiting for your review since a long time. Got my bike today 5PM, unfortunately enough, before you uploaded this one... Loving the bike already.
One quick question though for anyone who reads this comment - Do we have a separate owner's manual for Gixxer SF 250. My dealer gave me the owner manual which had only Gixxer SF mentioned and he said that this same for both the models (155 & 250)
The manual shouldnt matter much. All these motorcycles share many parts in common.
Bro, check in the service section, it should have model code as GSX250F.
@@iamstrell Thanks bro
@@kaushikmitra28 will check brother, thanks
@@kaushikmitra28 in the service section it's GSX150F. Will get that changed tomorrow. Thanks a lot!!!
10:07 heating capacity ...Lol anyways u corrected...;)
Bro, will the motorcycle be great for cruising on the highway at 80km/h average, for long trips (approx 36km)?
Also I'm 1m65cm, will the seat height be okay?
Thanks in advance.
Given the price i think this has the best to offer
What are your thoughts when you compare this with CBR 250R... Is it better, is it lacking in things like engine power, refinement.... Would love to know that from you... This would help understand SF250 characteristics better.... Would you prefer this bike to CBR250R if they are available at the same time....? Please let us know....
Dude, first the abs variant of cbr 250r cost 35k more than the sf 250
I'm not hating on cbr but it's quite outdated ,no major update after 2016
only little cosmetic change from new sticker
But the CBR 250R is obviously better than the sf 250 in terms of performance and refinement . But I can't digest the fact that Honda is taking Indian market for granted. They are launching new models everywhere.
But in India they are selling an outdated machine .
But if you are interested in the performance of cbr ,you are better off waiting for the cbr 300r . It will probably launch in India in the second half of 2020
But(again) expect a price tag similar to ninja 300
So the cbr 250r is out of picture, for the price sf 250 is well worth it .Suzuki's oil cooling is very good , it can be compared to similar priced liquid cooling.
At last the Suzuki design is inspired from the old school katana.
@@aswinaugustine5308 well cbr 300r is a 2cylinder bike so one would expect a cost range of ninja 300 and yamaha r3
@@deepakrajaram2010 so when cbr 300 launches there will be no competition for the sf 250 in its price range
Trust me bro only one bike in 200 250 segment with low mid and top end..all in one sf 250 is way ahead than cbr
@@deepakrajaram2010 No cbr 300r is a single cylinder unit. Google it
Hi Strell , pls do a detailed review of suzuki Gixxer 250...The naked version of gixxer SF 250...Thanks in advance
Would you do a video on riding gloves
How about when u compare it to cbr250 ?pls reply
Bro which bike is comfortable for long ride rs200 or sf 250?
I rode this bike few weeks ago and very much Happy about this bike. Planning to buy the Moto gp edition. Your thoughts, Strell?

Ramesh Nataraj , pls call Vittal 9900073002

Waiting ninja 400 💚
Can you do a comparison video. SF 250 with Mojo.
Bro review ns 200 and it's pure sound video too...
Bro..I’m waiting for CBR 250 RR..Do u have any information about this?
Hi bro, how about its light during night, ....any issue?
Is it competent with the fazer 25? Which is really a bad bike I'm told
Tall friend? Please mention his height beacuse im 6'3 and maybe 5'11 would be tall for you or 5'8 too so you get the point right
cbr 250r and gixxer 250 sf which one is best in terms of maintanence cost and handling
