According to reports and pictures doing rounds on the internet, the Suzuki Gixxer 250 seems to be in its production- ready form. The motorcycle's design appears to have been heavily inspired by the 2016 Suzuki GSX-R1000.
While the Suzuki GSX-R250, or Suzuki Gixxer 250, does have new bits such as the handlebar and seats, most of its other parts, including the switchgear and instrument cluster, are identical to the current, smaller Suzuki Gixxer's.
Although there is no information on which engine Suzuki would be offering on the Gixxer 250, one can expect it to match the performance of the engine on the current motorcycle.
Suzuki might position the Gixxer 250 as a sports tourer, and will be rivalled by existing motorcycles such as the Honda CBR 250R, if it is a single cylinder, and the Kawasaki Ninja 300 and the Yamaha R3 if it gets a parallel-twin engine, as the option is being speculated.
The Gixxer 250 will make an appearance at the 2016 Auto Expo that'll be held in New Delhi.
