S
uzuki says that its new
GSX250R is "built to
deliver Suzuki's sport bike
heritage to a new generation of
riders," adding, "this new street
bike has appealing performance
and comfort features that will ap-
peal to a broad base of enthusi-
asts."
The GSX250R features a
248cc parallel-twin, SOHC,
fuel-injected engine with a six-
speed transmission, all wrapped
in full-fairing bodywork, draw-
ing its design and performance
inspiration from its line of Suzuki
Katana sport bikes.
A low 31.3-inch seat height,
slim 4.0-gallon fuel tank and
overall light weight (392.4-pound
claimed curb weight) will surely
appeal to the entry-level and
novice riders. It has 10-spoke
aluminum wheels and KYB sus-
pension.
The GSX250R will be avail-
able in Pearl Glacier Nebular
White or Pearl Nebular Black
colors.
The GSX250R will be avail-
able by April 2017. CN
