Is Suzuki Gixxer Sf250 worth buying?
The most underrated and practical 250cc Bike
The suzuki Gixxer sf 250 is the most practical 250ccsegment motorcycle .This blog is also an user review .The reason why i bought gixxer sf250 is that,My biggest dream Bike in my college days is R15v3.I mentioned early it was a dream so didn't happend .After completed the college I got a well paid job not too paid to buy a super bike .so ,i started searching the best bike at the time my only consideration is the mighty yamaha R15v3 I seriously fallen for that agreesive looks .I took a test ride r15v3 that feels a bit uncomfortable in the seating position that makes me thing for a alternate bike .The reason for the alternative bike is love for the motocycle touring , for that yamaha R15 v3 does not fullfill my requirements .After that i changed my considerations and took test ride for sf250 ,at the time new paint scheme 25th Anniversary of motogp edition was introduced it looks stunning and the road presence looks fabulous which made me to buy the Suzuki gixxer Sf 250 .I ride nearly 30k kilometers with in that I covered 450 kms in 4hours with a crusing speed of 110-120kmph , lots and lots of commuting and 200-400 kilometer short rides .I didn't feel any discomfort in riding position in traffic or long rides .It gives the mileage which same as the company claims and it is sometime up and down due to riding conditions .The periodical service are not costlier and not cheap .This bikes looks are dazzing from the back and side views ,the front view is not good because of the short type of visor ,if you want better look you can go for a after market visor which looks better Apart from the looks ,the specification is worth for the money even the R15v4 priced similar to the sf 250 then it is absolutely worth buying because of higer cc engine and powers .The reason why I compared 155cc to 250cc is for the same top speed and pricing . when compared to same segment like duke 250 and dominor 250 both are costlier than sf 250 and both are naked sports bike .compartively duke 250 produces extra 4ps , dominor produces extra 1ps and both have usd fork which lacks in Sf250.
