The new Bajaj Dominar 250 and Suzuki Gixxer 250 take two very different approaches to the 250cc naked bike. Rishabh Bhaskar tells you how they do things differently, and which one does things better.

I still don't get why standard telescopic forks are looked down on as compared to USDs. Just because it's inverted doesn't mean it's better. Suspension should be judged based on ride and handling, not the spec sheet.

I got Gixxer 250 in Nov'20 (Diwali). Even though I was a Bajaj loyalist, the Gixxer is the better city bike. I have ridden Interceptor, Dominar 400 (1st gen) for a few good hundred kms. The sales and service support of Bajaj was laughable at best, (book first, test ride later), the Suzuki is clearly packed together much tighter. It is much stiffer, but there is nothing that beats the 'ease of use' (no traffic slicing comparison here) The Dominar is heavy, you will feel the weight everytime you take it off the side stand, and the low seat helps, but good forbid you have to pick up the bike. I have done a 120kms ride on Gixxer, the bike is meant for cruising not more than 100kmph, I am 6 feet tall, the wind blast while not huge was felt a bit more due to the tall seating. Unless you plan to do K2K rides (kanyakumari to kashmir or vice versa), the Gixxer should suffice, the weight will make a difference every time, its as easy to commute as my old Pulsar 135 on it, and if & when you choose to gun it, it will go fast enough to satisfy any speed cravings on might have. Every single person who has ridden the Gixxer, has been left nothing but 100% impressed with the package. The Dominar isnt bad, but unless you are a hardcore tourer, youre better off with Gixxer (again this is from a Bajaj loyalist, who doesn't mind paint chipping off from every area even after the best care one can do) Bonus point, Gixxer 250s are much rarer than Dominars in my city (Lucknow), so big exclusivity factor. Thank you for reading this long comment.

Check the refinement of Bajaj bikes 2 years down the line n 5 years down the line.. You will understand.. The Japanese machines go on to get smoother n smoother as they age in comparison!!.. Talk Refinement n consistency in it for long time.. The Japanese are unmatched in all segment bikes in the world 😎

No one is talking about the fact that domi is 24 kg heavier but still provide same mileage. I know weight is in heavier side but straight line stablity is unmatchable also slipper clutch,seat comfort for rider and pillion usd forks better braking and services are better than gixer

I'm from the northeast and as you guys know the streets are usually narrow,hair pin bend,steep inclined, steep decline. With limited meters of straight road. Ok so a few months ago I was on my way to work.the traffic speed was at 12-15 kmph and there was a domi250 it was trying to catch up.as the road started going up I was sensing some lagging sound it even stalled more than 5 times.I felt sorry for that guys choice and also felt happy because my sf250 didn't bother even at such low speed to climb in 2nd 3rd gear fellas Gixxer/sf 250 shouldn't be underestimated.

These 2 bikes are more practical. If u r a thrill seeker get Duke 250, Husqvarna. Gixxer- city use + Light highway use, better build, better response, handling, built, top speed 145+. Almost as good as undisputed 250cc king cbr250. Dominar - better at highways, slightly better comfort, brakes feels better, sounds better, colors choice better
