Suzuki Gixxer SF 250 uses an oil-cooled 250 cc single-cylinder engine that produces 26 horsepower and 22 Nm of maximum torque. The engine is mated to a 6-speed transmission. It uses telescopic front forks and a monoshock at the rear. The bike has dual disc brakes with ABS as standard. Priced at Rs.1.82 lakh (Ex-showroom), here are the motorcycles that the Gixxer 250 rivals.rn
Yamaha YZF-R15 V3.0
rn Yamaha YZF-R15 V3.0rnrnThe Yamaha YZF-R15 V3.0 is one of the most preferred entry-level sports motorcycles for sale.

The riding position is more customized than that of the Suzuki, but it is comfortable enough. The R15 V3.0 engine generates around 19 bhp and 15 Nm of maximum torque from the 155 cc engine with VVA. While it is lower power compared to the Gixxer SF 250, it is also less expensive at Rs.1.55 lakh (Ex-showroom).rn
