Q. Is Suzuki Gixxer SF 250 better than Dominar 250 for city handling and mileage?
  • The Suzuki Gixxer SF 250 is powered by a 249cc, single-cylinder, fuel-injected, BS6-compliant engine which makes 26.5PS of power and 22.2Nm (0.4Nm down), mated to a 6-speed gearbox. Though the bike sports a outward appearance of an aggressive sport bike, the riding position is rather neutral. It’s got wide clip-on handlebars that are positioned quite close to the rider, and are reasonably tall. Also, the rider's seat itself is quite comfortable. As for the fuel efficiency, the bike delivers a claimed mileage of 37.5kmpl in the city and 40.95kmpl on highways, while the claimed fuel efficiency of Dominar 250 is 35.03kmpl. On the other hand, the Dominar 250 gets its traits from the elder sibling, the Dominar 400 which have proven to be quite comfortable to ride. We would suggest you to take a test ride of the bikes in order to get a better understanding of comfort and compatibility. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.Read More: - Bajaj Dominar 250 Road Test- Suzuki Gixxer SF 250 Road Test Review- Bajaj Dominar 250 vs Suzuki Gixxer SF 250
  • Domi250 is naked tourer With drag handlebar and sf 250 is fully faired sports tourer with clip on handlebar. Domi250 riding position is better upright position than sf250. Sf250 is little agressive but sf250 engine refinement is much better. In city traffic don't worry for too much gear shifting in sf 250 and sf250 gives you better mileage and styling... If you ride for long distance then domi 250 is better.. your money your choice.. thank you bro..good luck for your new bike..
  • Totally , Dominar weighs much more than gixxer also the power to weight ratio is so bad you will have to rev the bike to get a good feel thereby reducing city mileage.

    Most aggressive looking bike 

    It is a great touring bike that is sporty and very aggressive bike and the suspension is well tuned and is great comfortable. The engine sound of this bike is really nice and gives great power delivery but the low end performance is not good. Honestly it is easy bike to ride and comfortable enough but it gives vibrates. It feels refined and the engine actually feels smooth but is average in many things. It attracts lot of people that look sporty but the brakes are not that good and the price is very high.

    Adventurous Spirit and Dynamic Performance 

    " The Hero XMR Karizma XMR is the motorcycle that every adventurer dreams of because of its adventurous streak and fast-paced performance. Besides, as far as water-themed sport engaging activities are considered, rafting is a must-experience as well. They praised its quick and strong engine as well as agile handling and stand-out design, providing drivers with the same ride on the highway and winding roads. Along with its advanced features such as ABS, digital instrument cluster and LED light the car truly looks amazing. Interestingly, several others say that the fuel efficiency is still not at the best level and imply that the wind shield is not good enough especially when the speed is at its highest level."

    Roaming the Roads with Hero Karizma XMR 

    Hero Karizma XMR is an ideal motorcycle for the ultimate adrenaline addicts or just avid fans because of its off-road features and outstanding performance. It comes with a power packed XMR engine and ensures safety as well as comfort in highways and other offbeat areas on the other hand. The Karizma XMR's highly progressive features which include the ABS and traction control will make sure that you enjoy a safe and secure flight at all times when riding this bike. Nevertheless, the high seat placed might be a problem for the short-statured one, and the opened price tag can be the evidence of the high-level performance and complexities. In conclusion, the 2022 Bajaj Karizma XMR is very exhilarating for any rider who wants only to revel in the thrill of the journey or the exploration.

    Karizma XMR adventure 

    I've ridde­n it for some time now, and it has bee­n an interesting expe­rience. As someone­ who enjoys motorcycles, I like its stylish look and comfortable­ riding experience­. The Karizma XMR is one of the most affordable­ bikes in its class, making it accessible to many ride­rs. However, I've notice­d that its fuel efficiency could be­ improved, and the build quality see­ms lacking in certain areas. Despite­ these drawbacks, its smooth performance­ and low cost make it a good choice for anyone se­eking a stylish and budget-friendly motorcycle­ ride.

    bringing space to you 

    Suzuki Gixxer SF 250 is an amazingly planned two-wheeler model, which has made to my bucket list ever since its launch. Amazing part is that it has a 5 star rating in safety and security terms. It is so convenient in terms of weight and size which is beautifully planned to designed from the exterior to the interior, inside out. This two wheeler falls under the price range of budget on an average basis. I highly recommend this to anyone who is as crazy about decent bikes as I am and planning on buying one for them.
