Hello #PDArmy! What should Suzuki do to make the Gixxer SF 250 go from 'Almost there' to 'Must buy'? Tell us in the comments!

Hello, I own the Gixxer SF250, and I love every bit of it. Every time I park it, I turn around at least once to admire its beauty. Love the punchy mid range which tears apart all other 200cc around me when you twist the throttle. Superbly refined engine, great seats and seating postures.. Simply love its nature... ❤️

For the first time I come to know oil cooler 250cc motor has Fan for cooling oil No reviewers admit this Well done Powerdrift 👍

Fantastic video Varun. This bike is sexy as hell in black. I'd love to have this bike for commuting around Delhi. I just saw the new Ninja 2020 650 too - it's gotta be my dream bike alongside a Tiger or Africa Twin 😍

Is there any fan of Suzuki engineering..??🤔

Hi all, I own a Gixxer SF 250 Matte Black. For the pooja holidays I went on a 900kms round trip on my machine. The bike is really superb to ride for longer duration. No butt/back pain at all. My height is 5.3 and i had best riding posture and comfort. Gears - Smooth. Brakes - Needs extra bite as said in this review. I agree on this. LED Headlight - Does the job nicely in the night. But at dusk( around 6pm-7pm) , you will be wondering whether the light is on or off. But after that - visibility is good. Windshield - It's just gives the looks. Aftermarket DB visor available. so can be changed Engine heat - nothing felt on the highways, but in city traffic a warm heat can be felt in the legs. But bearable not the burning kind. Mileage - I cruised at 100kmph on the highways and never felt any vibrations. Overall route - 70% highways and 30% city rides. I got 37.5 kmpl. Seats are good. Pillion seats - not for long rides/ shorter duration rides can be manageable Guys, I've given my personal overall experience about this bike.

when I look at the sporty commuter bikes above 200cc one bike I always wanted to buy the old karizma r (1st gen) 😔

here is the x factor u missed out bro... this is the cheapest machine to maintain and svc charge and spare charges are almost equal to sf 150 and which is 30 to 40 percent cheaper than dom and duke 250....and yea the japanese reliability ...u can update windvisor or brakes nt a deal braker

Seriously 41 at highway!!! I on my Apache 200 claim around 35 to 36 man!!! That's impressive

The Fuel Efficiency makes it a good tourer also, love the design not the exhaust tips.

We are expecting a 250cc comparison.. Gixxer 250 vs CBR 250 vs Fazer 250.. Atleast do CBR vs Gixxer comparison. @Powerdrift

2 words : Reliability and Durability The Duke or the dominar will never last as long with as little maintainence as the suzuki and offer this level of mileage and speed. Japanese bikes are just better built ,plain and simple .

I'm wondered by the Fuel Efficiency of this machine!! 😳

i own 250 Motogp Edition ❤️❤️❤️ Beast Machine

I fear no man, but that thing *_THE WINDSHIELD_* it scares me.

I own this black beast! It suited my budget its power is adequate to my liking as i owned rs 200 before and it got stolen so i've to look for a bike and the gixxer sf 250 since it's launch attracted me and 3 months after owning it i can say that one must go and ride it themselves to experience it and then take any decision in real life this windshield also is somewhere good looking when you see the bike all together it has a different body language! And it has a great torque mid range which i love the most which is great in city like Delhi. A proud owner of this beast!

Fuel efficiency 👍🏻 side look amazing just little improvements And well done PD as always Why don’t you make movies 😅

This man has greater acting ability than some of the overrated Bollywood actors.

Cinematography is on the whole next level😍 never fails to amaze us....

Well i own one now... And completed 800km just in 2 days of purchase... Awesome bike

Bought the Gixxer SF250 Moto GP edition after a lot of research. I wanted to buy the MT15 but it was a huge disappointment for me. Must say, I think I have made the correct decision. The fuel efficiency numbers mentioned here are true. Even I couldn't believe it and I had to do multiple calculations at multiple times. You can cruise at 4000rpm 6th gear and you wouldn't even feel like the engine is running. I thought missing out on liquid cooling would be a huge negative but the oil cooling is really cool and you wouldn't miss it. Suzuki did it to make the engine lighter and improve fuel efficiency. The duke 250 is a great choice but the maintenance cost is too much for me. For my first servicing it cost me only 808rs. I expect maintenance to be very cheap compared to other companies. Check my instagram the moto gp colour really pops up. :) @sangy_bora

BSVI 250sf should have these changes👇 1.Cast alloy swing arm 2.Taller windscreen 3.Radial mount calliper at front disc

It's Fuel efficiency numbers are better than my RTR 180 & 200 fuel economy. 😑

Powerdrifts bike reviews have always been the best and will always will be. Like all the past reviews this one also clicks right. I have been thinking about buying the 250 for a long time and your review made me take the decision and in a good way 👍

I'm just watching for you Varun... Your narration and editing 👌👌👌💕💕💕

I love how you guys are clearly understanding and stating how these machines are actually going to be used everyday, commutes and weekend rides ! Loving the script !!!

Man ! First of all awesome video Loved it totally. The moment when you were about to pick the must buy cup !! I wish

Fuel efficiency is impressive✌ Awesome PD❤

Great..no nonsense review. I own this bike and all the points fit perfectly!!

I wondered Well done Varun Painter, very enthusiastic presentation and awesome editing, 5* not for the bike, but for you 😃😃😃

Thank god u came varun.its not like I hate shumi, but seeing him in every other review s kind of monotonous.looking for a comparison between Fazer 25 and Gixxer sf 250 atleast a drag 👍👍happy Diwali to PD team.

To make Gixxer go from 'Almost there' to 'Must buy', Suzuki should upgrade the windscreen. Upside down forks could help. May be a DOHC set up & LED turn signals. Please compare the CBR 250r with Gixxer 250sf, as they churn out same power with different cooling systems. Should be interesting when PD does it. Loved the bike. Love all your videos! :) Good Luck! Jay

Just love how you ignored CBR 250R is in the market.

It's giving me 42kmpl after 3rd service at 60 to 70 speed

Notification squad assemble....

3:57 Harley..? 🎧🎶

Always Power Drift review best... Love From Bangladesh... Very waiting for Sf 150 reviews

Dynamic editting 😊 Super narration 🤩 Love to see more videos like this

Really need to learn this kind of editing ❤️❤️

Hadn't seen a review like this before....Keep going...

Windshield should have been like the apache 310 one

Awesome video editing, everything is perfect, just the way I want to see a review.

You can revisit the engine heating test once ambient temperatures are much higher than what they're right now. It's unlikely to heat up with temps around 28C but could be different when it hits 40C.

It might look ugly in the photos. But trust me, both the Gixxers of 2019; whether faired or naked look absolutely stunning in the real world. I Just couldn’t take my eyes off them when I saw them first time. They are worth the price the Suzuki is asking for. 💓💓

I did a non stop touring in my 2018 Gixxer and I must say that despite being Air cooled I barely experience any heat from the engine while driving. If it's oil cooled then I must say Suzuki has nailed it

First thing I do when I start a PowerDrift video. 1 - Like (As #TeamPD always puts the best out) 2 - put the resolution of the video to 1080p. (as all the videos are treat to the eyes) 3 - always comment as it motivates the team to do more. #TeamPD #PDArmy #ProudComrad

At last a video out from the tracks🌿green frame love…

Loved the way you presented it!!

After SF250 launch i was considering it as my upgrade from FZ25, but after test drive I didn't find much of difference between both. Dominar seems to be more sensible option. Infact Gixxer sf150 was more fun to ride than sf250

Bhai japanese bikes me looks aur price jo bhi hota hai, woh reliable aur refined jaroor hota hai, jiska 25% bhi indian brand me nehi hota

Expecting more guys ... Good start in the video and have some lags after the bike Snaps passes

Wait Varun didn't say his iconic lines so im doing it for him- I'm Varun Painter and I'll see you later 😏👀😂 #pdarmy

If you want to upgrade from a R15 V3, then it's the best Japanese option for you. This bike handles great on the corners.

is the front suspension not good enough for a bit rough road ?(a road with some pit)

I had my finger crossed hoping it would be varun or kartikye . Thankz powerdrift for not going with that shumi guy.

Loved the Review, 100%genuine!!

Hey PowerDrift,would love to see a Gixxer250 review from y’all.

Great review..Guys why so late review for this bike..keep it coming as soon as possible

@PowerDrift guys please make future vids in 60fps your vids are very enjoyable...

Nice video👌❤ I love gixxer sf 250💝

At peak speeds/rpms in the highest gear,I get an efficiency of 37 on my Gixxer sf 155. The 250 seems to be rather efficient for its engine displacement.

Awesome review as always. 👍 But also include the headlight review at night. It's important.

Everyone asked for sf vs cbr in 250 segment.. no one is to do.. we want it from PD #PDArmy

Guys, doesn't matter if you own a Yamaha 250 or Suzuki 250. If you'll really want to enjoy them then just switch from stalk tyres to Pirellis. This makes a world of difference in rains and panic breaking. Spend those extra 15K for outright fun if you're already owning a Japanese single cylinder 250.

Wow this is an amazing video and especially that it is in English

How about SF250 vs CBR250?

Great mileage but my Cbr250r 2k19 gave me 40kmpl while staying constantly between 100-130kmph. Please #powerdrift do a comparison between the old legend vs the new boy in town. I’m sure many want it!

@varunpainter what would your favorite pick be ? SF250 OR DUKE 250 BS6. ?

The thai version of honda cbr 250r is the strongest 250cc bike that still exist in the world 😎😎😎😎 Love you honda cbr❤❤❤❤❤

Once in 2014 hero decided to make hx250 r with about 30bhp of power. but after a year they cancelled their plan bcz they thought that buyer of india are moving up to 300 or more cc engine, so nobody will buy a 250cc bike. But still 250cc bikes are rocking. It is always not about the cc but the thrill and feedback from the engine. Like duke and new gixxer. Even bajaj is planning to launch 250cc adv bike. How a company like hero is still under dilemma about market demand is hard to understand.

Please share about the headlight visibility in highway . Does the fan for oil cooling make noise

As a daily commuter should I go for r15v3 or gixer sf 150 full fiercing one

Sf 250 or rc 200 or Duke 250.. Pls answer... I am very confused

how is the riding posture? Is it aggressive like R15?

What a review. Hats off guys!

Really hoped you guys could've said something about the headlight visibility at night and rain.

i own one and it fits me perfectly, a jack of all trades but a master of none ...just like me...

I am confused which bike I have to choose Duke 250 or SF 250 can you help me... I just want good look, fuel efficiency, service cost and comfortable also which bike i should choose?

I love you Gixxer 250

Top notch review! You guys are🔥❤️

Did varun sleep midway through the review? I was about to, where's the trademark powerdrift energy man?

I want to know more about vibrations and suspension. I feel too much vibes and stiff suspension

Varun Painter ... I hated your initial videos when you replaced Sagar. But man your recent videos for the past 6 months are awesome. I am waiting for Aprilia GPR 250... And also looking forward to anything coming out of Bajaj Triumph partnership. Own a Gixxer 150.

#PowerDrift pre-ending was good--"Almost There". Its true

Are those wide mirrors striking the vehicles around you ?

The direction and cinematography of PowerDrift should also be appreciated!

Must buy if you are using for daily commuting!

if they made it just a bit more frantic it would have been really fun !!!

TVS should and must fill this gap by introducing a low tuned 310 cc with a smooth engine and a decent pillion seat and call it a 310GT They nailed everything else with the rr310 except 1) engine refinement 2) Pillion support 3) A tad higher cost. The rr310 has potential, TVS needs to go the extra mile to finish the race.

Why is there no mention of the cbr250r which fits well within the spec list of this bike?

Is there any detailed review of the sf 155 as im planning to buy it and i prefer power drift's review over any other channel

Pls Make a video about the Gixxer 250, the naked version of this bike.

varun good job with the review 💟

Why Powerdrift did not review Honda CBR 250r till now ? Eger to get the comaprision between Suzuki Gixxer, Yamaha Fazer 250 and Honda CBR250r.

130 speed is smooth as like cutting a butter, no noise ... nice bike

I think it misses out the exclusivity of the design by sharing it with the younger sibling. When I buy a bike at 1.7 lakh, I expect it not to look similar to a less expensive bike.

Nice Bike when that available here in the Philippines?

Can pls compare with CBR 250r #PDArmy

Well, how come did u manage to avoid talking about cbr250 against this sf?? There are certainly several people who owned cbr, or considering to own one but in dilemma to choose what over sf or cbr? What would be your answer to those ??

Bike aside. This is a very well crafted video.
