With the confirmation that the Suzuki GSX-R1000 L7 will enter the market in 2017, along with the baby GSX-R125, Suzuki has now shown its offering at the other end of the sportsbike spectrum, the 2017 GSX-R250. Set to enter the crowded quarter-litre sportsbike class, the GSX-R250 follows design cues from the big Gixxer 1000 closely, according to reports carried in China online media.
With the 248 cc parallel-twin engine taken from the Suzuki Inazuma, the GSX-R250 is claimed to produce 24.6 hp at 8,000 rpm and 23.4 Nm of torque at 6,500 rpm. Power gets to the ground via a six-speed gearbox, and the quarter-litre Gixxer weighs in at 178 kg. Fuel is carried in a 15-litre tank.
Braking is with a single disc front and rear, measuring 290 mm and 240 mm respectively, and seat height is a very rider-friendly 780 mm. Built in the Changzhou Haojue Suzuki Motorcycle facility in CHina, there are six colour schemes available for the 2017 Suzuki GSX-R250 – Poseidon Blue, Glacier White, Cool Black, Fashion Black, Transparent Red/Black and Crystal Blue/White. Availability in the China motorcycle market is said to be November 2016.
Wow!!!!!!!!!Great news……sporty GSX-R250 is borned! When will be launched in Malaysia..seriously??
the new 2017 Honda CBR 2016 looks way better.
Did all Suzuki Gsxr 250 is made in China?
Dream on. Suzuki factory closing down here. Too bad.
Sell it at Rm3k MAX, or them Chinamen must be very greedy thieves and lazy bum, follow basher logic.
Heaviest and least powerful in class, top speed 120kmh. I’ll pass.
They should go for 3 or 4 cylinders configuration for this class
25hp is kind of low
No wonder they close suzuki mesia. This model won’t sell here. Good moves suzuki. Concentrate on big bikes.
Price of suzuki Gsxr 250cc pls
