Unlikely to be launched in India.
After months of speculation, the Suzuki GSX-250R is now finally official. The new quarter-liter class motorcycle was unveiled yesterday in Chongqing, China.
The Suzuki GSX-250R is inspired by the Suzuki GSX-R1000. It measures 2,085 mm in length, 740 mm in width and 1,110 mm in height, and has wheelbase of 1,430 mm. The seat height is measured at 780 mm.
The GSX-250R is powered by the 248 cc liquid-cooled, twin-cylinder engine of the Inazuma. The parallel-twin engine has been tuned to produce 18.4 kW (24.66 hp) at 8,000 rpm and 23.4 Nm of torque at 6,500 rpm, and is linked to a 6-speed transmission.
The Suzuki GSX-250R weighs 178 kg and has a fuel tank of 15 litre capacity. On a full tank, it can be ridden 480 km, and this converts to a fuel economy of 32 km/l. The driver is aided with a fully digital instrument panel and the stopping power comes from a 290 mm disc brake at the front and a 240 mm disc brake at the rear.
