I cannot wait to get this bike. after so much googling and asking around and just general research, i'm glad that this bike was suggested for a first bike. after this review it was just confirmed that i will be making the right choice.

Thanks for the epic work on this video dude

Use a GS150R as a commuter & after hours delivery bike. Took a test ride on the Gixxer 250SF, more than ever convinced I want to upgrade to the naked version of this 250. Felt the punchy power, love ABS for safety & if it's as reliable Suzuki as my current bike, will be a great bike

Awesome little piece of kit

Great Video - Had my Gixxer 250 SF now for 1000km loving it more everyday. Top speed is about 155-160km/h ;)

Love the review. Just recently thought of starting riding and excited on the journey ahead 💯 glad I found a local channel

Get the naked version, it's slightly cheaper. There's a black and white one which is totally awesome. I don't like the blue and yellow colour scheme either.

Thanks, I'm sold, looking for a smaller bike for a long time now, tired of the big bike

Awesome video thank you. Could you please do a review on the cbr 250rr?

Good review. It's a fucking awesome bike with or without the fairing. I prefer the naked version in black and white. It's also slightly cheaper. Perfect commuter and easily does service as a delivery bike. You can sit on this bike all day long. Total joy to ride around on.

Hey brother!! I have the same bike just the naked version.. but here in India the gixxer 250's r oil cooled not liquid

The Motor GP is a bit too much because a lot of people prefer the naked version, would you recommend it as a new bike for a new rider or I would start with the 150cc?

Stuck between Gixxer SF 250 and Vstrom sf 250. I have no idea which one i want, never owned a bike before.

Not an expensive bike compared to the competition. Especially if you look at the naked version

Its an oiled cooled right?

The bike is awesome, however with the seating position there is some pressure on the wrists, I find after about an hour on the bike I feel abit cramped and my body gets sore. But when I get off and have a 5 minute rest then I am good to ride again for another hour with no issues

Having visited your beautiful country, Sept. 2019, for 14 days I have a desire to tour on a motorbike. My question is can a UK national buy and insure a new motorcycle like this. Would love to tour Western Cape, Route 22 etc. Also as a Himalayan rider do Royal Enfield sell their bikes in your country ? Best wishes from the UK.

You don't need a fairing at all. It's for show mostly. On a naked bike, you only start feeling the wind pressure when you're pushing north of 120 km/h. This bike tops out at around 135 km/h if you push it, so it's expected you will cruise in the 100 - 120 range. There is a naked version of this bike and it's slightly cheaper.
