The full-faired offering takes inspiration from the older GSX models for the headlamp cluster that gets three-piece set and is a full-LED unit. The fairing is sharply designed and looks lean, while the bike rides gets clip-on handlebars, digital instrument console, split seats and the twin barrel exhaust. The new design language also makes it to the Gixxer SF 155 that is likely to be launched tomorrow as well.

The Suzuki Gixxer SF 250 gets an oil-cooled 250 cc motor tuned for 26 bhp and 22.6 Nm of peak torque

Power on the Suzuki Gixxer SF 250 will come from a 249 cc single-cylinder, oil-cooled, fuel-injected, SOHC engine that churns out 26 bhp at 9000 rpm and 22.6 Nm of peak torque available at 7500 rpm. The motor is paired with a 6-speed gearbox. It needs to be be noted that most offerings in this segment do not make that kind of power, barring the CBR 250R that gets a liquid-cooled motor. It will be interesting then as how is the real world performance from this unit. The bike is underpinned by a revised frame as that on Gixxer 155, while the kerb weight stands at 161 kg. Suspension duties are taken care by telescopic forks and a monoshock unit at the rear, while braking performance will come from disc brakes at either end with dual-channel ABS as standard.

Prices are yet to be revealed on the new Suzuki Gixxer SF 250 and we will get to know about them tomorrow. The Gixxer certainly looks loaded to the gills and it will boil down to the pricing to seal its fate.  Expect prices to start around Rs. 1.70-1.80 lakh (ex-showroom) for the new Gixxer. We will be bringing complete details from the Gixxer launch tomorrow, so make sure to keep watching this space for all the information.

The 650 cc parallel-twin engine was due to be used in Norton's Atlas and Superlight models, but now it looks like that engine platform will make its debut in a Zongshen motorcycle, called the Cyclone R6.
