Yeah it's really smooth! The the point that on idle...it's like there's no engine

Thanks for the comment 🌠✨🌠

Try ktm mirror

Thanks mannnn! Video was possible thanks to you! 🔥🔥

Thank you soooo much for the lovely wishes and comment! 💯💯💯 You really took the time to put down your thoughts! And to me that's very very valuable! Thank you again! 💯💯💯

Good to know! Thanks 👍 will inform the owner 🙂

Any idea how I could get these mirrors?

@@markpais2788 Bajaj service center! There's a big on in your area 🙂

Most welcome! There are many bikes out there, test ride as much as you can. Test ride the MT15 and Pulsar N250, these bikes are not very powerful but manage to be very cost effective with running cost and services.

Thank you so much for the positive comment! Do consider subscribing! Many more videos on many bikes coming up!

I think suzuki should use the cooling technology on 150cc motorcycles. Or make motorcycle to sit in middle. Right now the 250s are still unreachable for many.

@@butimjeremy yup unreachable for me too 😭😭. Too expensive but still my dream bike.

Slipper clutch is much needed and with pillion it is not comfortable what i feel.

@@shyam5631 the 150 is also a very good bike! It lacks that midrange grunt, but it really good in every other way.

@@markpais2788 yeah I heard about it's handling prowess. The Gixxer 250 is based on 150 but the chassis was initially designed for 150. So 150 is a better handling motorcycle than 250.

Thank you so much ! ✔️✔️✔️ This is exactly what I aim to do! Explain the good and bad with real life usage in mind. Thank you again! Humbled 😊

Thank you so much 🔥🔥🌠🌠

Thank you so much 💕

Thank you so much! I hope you found it informative! And makes it easy to make a decision

Thank you so much! Such positive comments are rare to find but feel extremely good 😊

Thank you so much! Do check out the V-Storm 250 video as well 😀

Thanks !

Thank you so much! I think it's the only bike in the segment doing this type of cooling...

Yeah! Luckily it's a feature that can be changed...so

Thank you so much! Yes the faring version will also be slightly less practical! But some people (including me) do it for the looks 😜 TVS really did a good job with the new generation of Apaches! The 160 4V / 200 4V took engine refinement to another level. They activity worked on the vibration. Night and day diffrence when compared to the 2V generation. Vibration is something that the RR310 still struggles with even after the BMW influence on the engine.

Thank you so much 😁😁😁 Do consider subscribing 💯💯💯

It sounds like a good deal. However, I think you should check the engine and chassis. You don't want to purchase a motorcycle that was used for test rides, and the meter has been reset. Overall, it's a good motorcycle.

So both bikes in question are of totally different segments. The CB350 is a retro classic motorcycle... Royal Enfield silhouette. 5 speed and 20 bhp is just okay. From that stand point the Gixxer 250 will perform better when it comes to speed and refinement at those higher speeds. Gixxer has a 6 speed gearbox and 26bhp. I haven't tested the CB but i can say that the format of the motorcycle combined with the spec sheet says that the Gixxer would have more speed. That being said...the CB sits in a class of its own.

@@butimjeremythanks for the reply.... true that both are diff...this will really be my first bike...m just going with a japanese engine bike under 2.5 lakh...i will be using it for city and once a month on highway. but sometimes would love to feel the power on throttle to keep the adrenaline going.

@@akshitdh.8335 I've heard that the CB350 likes to rev because of the tall gearing

Thank you so much

I don't understand the question...

So nice of you ! Thank you

Thank you so much 🙏

This is a interesting question ! So the Gixxer 155 engine is the same unit from the first generation Gixxer sooo it is older but also matured enough that mechanics understand the problems. My friend has the first generation Gixxer...he faced some issues with the fuel tank leaked paint and eventually even the engine had to be rebuilt. It's possible that Suzuki have fixed these problems with the next generation. The N160 takes alot of inspiration from the bigger 250 twins so it looks bigger and the engine is new. Yes the engine is refined and bajaj has taken time to tune it for maximum torque and low RPMs. There's also the advantage of dual channel ABS and a big bike feel with the N160. The Suzuki Gixxer 155 is good but honestly I haven't seen many on the road compared to the first generation. If you do go for the Gixxer check for service centres around you. If you go for the Bajaj service shouldn't be a problem. You'll get more power and torque, especially the torque is useful in the city. I would recommend watching some long term reviews of the N250s and 160s to see what kind of issues if any are there on the motorcycle, only because it's a relatively new engine.

@@butimjeremy Thanks for a detailed response. And yeah Suzuki does have less service centers and less showrooms. I hear its resale value is relatively less as well. But it is also not as common as Apaches and FZs so I guess that comes with the territory. One concern I have with the Indian brands is that they may not be as durable as the Japanese counterparts. Due to taxes bikes are already pretty expensive here in Nepal. Gixxer 250 for instance costs about 2.9 lakhs INR. Xpulse 200 4v costs 2.8 lakhs but I think they're just ripping us off. I don't have a lot of money so I need to look for something that won't cause any expensive problems 5 years into the future.

@@basicbeaver okay! I understand! I also go for maximum value for money product on my channel! I got my first bike in 2014...Pulsar 135LS for 70K Indian... everyone told me that the quality is not good! But it's still brilliant 52K km after and 8 years on. But that also depends on how well they are maintained. What is the cost of spare parts? You'll have to consider that too! A good lower cc Motorcycle is a investment... sometimes it's cheaper to run that even public transport. I've kept my Pulsar 135 even after my 200 RS came in...only because of fuel cost and efficiency

@@butimjeremy I've witnessed Pulsars lasting a very long time as well! And for some people it apparently starts giving engine issues a lot sooner. I'll have to wait and see how they'll price the N160 in our market. Hopefully they won't inflate it atrociously. I know I don't want FZ V3, so for now I'm considering Gixxer 155 and Apache 160. We'll see how the N160 will fare against them. But I have a feeling it'll be priced at around 2.4 lakhs INR but we can also get the RTR 200 4V at that price (god bless Apache for not being as greedy as Hero). If I do end up going with a 250cc bike, I don't see a more attractive offer than the Gixxer. Looks more appealing than the FZ25 for sure.

@@basicbeaver The FZ V3 is under powered for a 150cc and doesn't makes sense at that price. Apache is good too! My friend has the 4v...he's enjoying the fuel efficiency and usable power in the city. A FZ25 has alot of torque too! But again the price and efficiency of a 250cc will come into play.

Thank you so much ❤️

It's a good bike overall. Engine, ergonomics and ride quality is all good. Test ride the Adv. Wait for some festiv offers. There are many new motorcycles getting launched this year... Suzuki might drop prices.

@@butimjeremy Finally i bought the Vstrom.. thanks for your suggestion ❤️❤️

Congratulations 👏 on your new ride! It's certainly a very versatile motorcycle. Enjoy it! Ride safe and always wear a helmet 🔥

@@Abh1shek7 congratulations

😁😁😁

Thank you so your comment 🌠🌠🌠

With any faired motorcycle...service takes longer and costs is a bit more...because there are more parts to remove and put... Ground clearance is also low..when compared to naked motorcycles... But I do understand...The wish to own a full faired motorcycle is real! I had the same dream...with the RS200 or NS200...

@@butimjeremy thanks thats also a point; I want faired motorcycle but not with the looks of SF. :P its just isn’t pleasing. And there is no other faired bikes in that segment or price range. I don’t want to get tvs apache 310 though I can afford and don’t want to go with RC because I have owned D390 and D200 already. I don’t want to go with Bajaj because my friend also had owned D400 and we mostly exchange vehicle and ride so I have experience on that as well. No Yamaha r15 though it’s smoothest there is no power at all. It can reach 150 but I don’t rev the nuts out of it. I prefer initial power and cruise at decent speed like 110 😂 I think I will stick to naked. Next bike will be Either Ninja650 or Z900 if budget allows I will think of Street triple. Then I will grow old and probably think of some some modern classics. Also, now I own two cars and drive them regularly.

@@sagarmurmu2569 Yeah! Personally I'm looking at the Versys 650 as my next motorcycle...

Mechanically I don't think anything will change in the motorcycle for 2022. Maybe fresh new colours and LED turn indicators.

@@butimjeremy Can you please help me choose a bike between RS200 and Gixxer sf I have to travel 60km /day with 50% highway route

@@Isheel Since you said that 50% is Highway and 50% is inner roads... The Gixxer is a better option. However if you want a little more wind protection and the SF . The RS is good if you want a smaller engine that more fuel efficient and easy to maintain because it's a bajaj. Personally I've got 40kmpl in mixed conditions on the RS and 48 on the highway. But the 250s from suzuki are just better in every other way.

Thank you for the kind comments! 💯🔥💯 I'm really impressed with that the Gixxer 250 can do... despite of its underwhelming spec sheet! But yeah spec sheets don't tell us the fl story. I've heard that the CB350RS is long gearing! Haven't got a chance to ride it...but do ride both.

@@butimjeremy Yeah, I have test ridden both bikes and they have different characters. But I enjoyed both. The tall gearing of CB350RS isn’t annoying in anyway. In fact that’s what makes its long stroke engine fun. You can revv the nuts out and have fun in first 3 gears. 4th and 5th are mostly overdrive gears and we may not even use them in city traffic. The engine is extremely refined and not even a hint of vibration. And Gixxer is another gem of a machine that has a totally opposite character. I kind of felt the seating posture also similar, however CB350RS has more comfortable seat for the rider. Pillion seats are not great on either. Gixxer has more space for the pillion but it’s high up. I’m really confused 🫤

@@aprasad666 See what role you want to fullfill with your motorcycle...

@@butimjeremy City commutes and occasional road trips..

@@aprasad666 ahhhh okay! Is there is big difference between 6th gear on the Gixxer vs 5th on the CB?

Thank you so much for the positive comment! ✨🌠✨ Do subscribe for more such videos!

Value for money aspect is true! I was very impressed with the oil cooling solution

Thank you so much 🙏😊🙏

If you are upgrading from a 150 I'd say get a 300 or a 400. It's double the power but just enough to keep you away from trouble. The new KTM Duke 250 is a good platform. I'd also suggest the CB300R if the budget allows, because it is expensive. The Dominar 400 is there but it's very heavy and isn't really comfortable in the city. About the new Pulsars! I think there will be 2. One 300cc which will use the new KTM 250 engine that has a SOHC setup and one that will use the current D400 or old 390 engine. If this happens I don't think the Dominar 400 will stick around for too long.

Also you can make a note of the RS457, which is 4.10 ex show room. But it's definitely a big value for money motorcycle right now (on paper)

@@butimjeremy See I will be using the bike for city mostly with some occasional touring on weekends or maybe once a month. Hence it has to be fuel efficient easy to maintain, practical at the same time plus it shouldn't be too expensive like Gixxer 250 is right now with Ride connect at 2.40 lakhs on road in Mumbai. I don't have that budget so I am going to exchange 150 for 200 or 300cc segment bike. Heck I am also looking at NS200 because I used to like it back in old times but it didn't have basic safety features like Dual channel ABS 😅 in past. But now it's well equipped with USD forks, Gear indicator, real time fuel efficiency And Dual channel ABS. Anyway what will be a great all rounder bike under 2.20 lakhs , could I get the price down for Gixxer 250 by exchanging it with Gixxer 155 . See my bike is from 2017 , its a Limited edition SP model , has Dual disc brakes but no ABS unfortunately.

@@aashutoshbhagat2677 The 200NS is a good option is you're not into features like Bluetooth. It's a tested platform and mechanics know how to work on it. I ride the RS200 daily and I can tell you it's very friendly for city use. Fuel efficiency 35-40kmpl

No such updates to the Gixxer series! If you want a motorcycle that doesn't need maintenance, look at older models...that have been in the market for 4-5 years! This way most of the production issues are ironed out and spares are easily available.

@@butimjeremyand your opinion about the stereotype Honda bikes reliable ?

@@omkar5359 From Honda I've only experienced the Activa, CB Unicorn , CBR 250 and CB300 R. The first two are extremely reliable for everyday use and parts are easily available. CBR250 and CB300 are good motorcycles but for everyday use they might be too expensive. Parts are not easily available and only available from Big Wing Honda showroom! The network is not as good.

@@butimjeremy thanks for info man I have subscribed and will be purchasing a new bike any time sooner and will update here 😅

@@omkar5359 yessss definitely! What cc are you looking at?

Husqvarna 250 is not a very comfortable motorcycle and the CB350 is comfortable. I'd suggest the Triumph Speed 400. And if you want a 250cc then new Duke 250 / adv 250. If you like RE then the hunter 350 is also a good option.

Honda then Yamaha then Suzuki! That used to be the line-up! But many things have changed... Indian manufacturers have stepped up big time. Also durability depends on how the owner maintains it as much as the RND to develop a good engine.

The size of the Gixxer is that much more than the FZs! Weight is more than the FZ! But again not by much! You should be okay! Go to the showroom...if you can test ride it...if you can't...move it front and behind...and feel the weight

I can manage wt but ht issue as it's 800mm n fzs is 790mm, can I reduce ht?

@@Moha123914 10mm does seem like alot! But honestly you won't feel it! I ride the RS everyday which is 5mm more than the Gixxer...but i didn't feel like the Gixxer was less. I don't think it should be a issue. The way the seat is shaped makes it easy.

Nor sure! It's not my motorcycle.

Thanks to the weight advantage.

Every 250cc is be different.... But range would be... 30-40 kmpl

@@butimjeremy Sir, pl don't say 30, I'm hping at least 35 over cities. Thinking to buy it 😅😅😅

@@pranavtilekar6747 that's the range... It depends on riding style and performance for thr motorcycle... Pulsar N250 will give you 35kmpl.. Even the gixxer 250....

Thanks

Well said ✨🌠🤣

That's great! Test ride the bike and also whatever options you may have. Keep your primary use case of the motorcycle in mind city use or highway.

That is true! Very few reviews and too many misconceptions

Good to know 💯

It's a very inspiring motorcycle. It's good at everything but lacks character. The Duke 250 or CB 300R would have more character in my books.

@@butimjeremy And how would you compare it with the Gixxer 250; which one would you prefer among these two??

@@sarthakshahpurkar7380 Between the two the Gixxer would be more mature and easy on the pocket. I think the Gixxers engine is well made. The Honda is not a real 300 it's more like 200 with a lot more torque. I would go for the Gixxer if it was my money. The ADV tho.

@@butimjeremy But now the CB comes around 15-20k cheaper then the gixxer, with lot more features and better looks, i agree that the top speed of CB might be less than gixxer but I think the acceleration 0-100 will be at par the gixxer 250, correct me if I am wrong wrong. And that’s why it has become a very VFM product now, and so I am very confused. CB is costing me exact 2lk on road, and the gixxer will cost around 2.20lk after festival offers and all

@@sarthakshahpurkar7380 Yeah Honda had a price correction. But with the power figures it's making, it's right in the ball park of something like the KTM Duke and RC 200. The KTM and Suzuki are much better in product maturity and they are true 200-250s which are exciting. I look at the Honda as a underpowed 300. It's very refined and great in the city but I wouldn't buy it because it's not as exciting as the others.

That's about it, Suzuki doesn't market well enough. The only thing that matters to them is the scooter.s

I think they just released the bike and let it be! I didn't see alot of talk about it after the initial reviews. In addition I think many people buying motorcycles in that segment think that oil cooling is a very low cost thermal solution. Now they've launched the ADVs ! Let's see what happens.

See for yourself... Yamaha's new bike launch speculation itself creates ripple in the market and yet you don't see the product get launched for months. Here Suzuki already has launched something new but you hardly hear about it, No buzz nothing. Totally agree with Mark, It's all about Suzuki Access and other scooters.

@@jpathak9174 yeah that's very true! ✔️

No navigation!

@@butimjeremy it's mandatory now a days

@@lifelearninglessons9375 I do not agree. Navigation can be done through the phone if required. It's a fairly cheap add on to any motorcycle. Motorcycles that come with navigation need to connect to the phone via bluetooth...so either way...the phone is being used. And I think with today's large screen phones...it's easier to view directions on a phone...that a motorcycle display

Thanks for the interaction 👍

@@butimjeremy just joking bro don't be serious ok😁

@@memes_village_0011 okay 😊 Thank you 👍

I'm not very good in Hindi...but which part didn't you understand!?

What was your experience like?

First of all 🥇 Thanks for the comment 😄 Both are great city motorcycles. They are well suited for the city hustle. You'll get more power on the Gixxer but better fuel efficiency and technology with the MT15. I would go for the MT15 only because it's got a very good engine that makes good power for the city runs and comes with features like USD forks & liquid cooling.

@@butimjeremy Do you think that Mt will lasts long than gixxer 250? And which engine will be refined more?

@@Anonymous-ls5zy Both are almost the same in refinement. The MT has liquid cooling so it will run cooler than the oil cooler on the Gixxer. Also Yamaha has better service than Suzuki, especially for motorcycles.
