Suzuki Motorcycles India Limited (SMIL) had unveiled its new 150cc naked sport model- Gixxer in India at the 2014 Indian Auto Expo. Now, an Indonesian website- otomotif.kompas claims to leak the specifications of the bike, which says about the power and torque figures of this upcoming machine. According to the report, the bike will deliver 13.9PS of maximum power and a peak torque of 13.4Nm using a 150cc single cylinder engine. These power figures are almost similar to the existing Suzuki GS150R, which comes with a 149.5cc SOHC engine, without SEP (Suzuki Eco Performance).
Earlier, the bike was said to sport an all new 155cc mill equipped with the company's latest SEP technology, which has been also used in the latest 110c scooter Suzuki Let's. Commonly, all the 110cc scooter in the Indian market delivers a maximum power around 8bhp, thanks to SEP that the new Let's churns out a best-in-class maximum power of 8.7bhp. So, we were expecting that the Gixxer will deliver more than 15bhp.
However, official specifications are still under the cover, and we can expect it to deliver a higher power and an impressive mileage compared to other bikes in the segment. Being a naked sport motorcycle, Suzuki Gixxer gets an aggressive styling with a bold headlamp, masculine fuel tank, dual stage seat and minimised body work. The bike gets a dual exhaust pipe with chrome garnishing which serves as the most attractive design feature of the bike.
Suzuki Gixxer will come with telescopic forks at the front, while the rear will get advance mono-shock suspension. Unique 17-inch split-spoke alloys will come covered with wide 140/60 tyre at the rear and 100/80 at the front. Braking system combines a 240mm disc and a 130mm drum brake on the front and rear wheel respectively.
The bike is speculated to be priced comparatively similar to its rival- Yamaha FZ series, which will help the bike to compete in the market of existing 150cc offerings.
Suzuki Gixxer (2014-2018) User Reviews
This best for interiors jobs person and comfortable and better for long range and Ii have this and it's good
I'm offering my meticulously maintained bike for sale, boasting regular servicing and usage, and delivering remarkable mileage despite its age.
While the engine impresses on highways, comfort for the pillion might be a concern. Nevertheless, with a commendable mileage exceeding 50 on highways, this 155 cc bike stands out in its class. There's potential for enhancement in safety features, particularly focusing on pedal functionality.
Nearly 23000km covered the 2018 BS4 model. Quality parts are good, I got an accident an year ago with a car surprised that only my leg guard bent and little scratch on a tank. The car bonet was completely has broken. Pros:- 1. Good looking (especially tank size and look) 2. Good quality 3. We can cruise at speed of 65 to 85 on highway if no crosswind (we can go further but use windshield). However, am cruising around 65 to 75 speed in most case. 4. After 1 year, my exhaust sound is better (using motul engine oil, the engine is a little more smooth). 5. Breaking confidence is super (good breaking my bike equipped with dual disc no abs). Cons:- 1. Pillion seat is not good and also back seat and height is high (only zero fig.can sit there). 2. When hard braking rider moving to tank side. 3. The service cost is a little high. So, just buy a product from an authorized center and change yourself or with a local workshop.
It's a fantastic bike.. with fantastic power. It's pulling is great. I like the most is its price. And, this is a very powerful bike at a low cost. Its mileage is very good. Overall, the performance of the bike is fantastic.
