Welcome to AC 2 diverse ride and today we are here at motorsports and Roswell for the Suzuki GSX R250. Suzuki who put a bolt through I got the Suzuki GSX R350 sports bike into the 250 markets. Let’s see how it is the first ride of Suzuki’s in the 250 markets. That’s a smart move or not I’m not really sure but we’ll find out. What for a cheap little bite that’s a pretty cool-looking tack it looks kind of looks futuristic. I can feel you on that this bad boy sounds like the letter. It’s 250 we have to keep that in mind make sure these mirrors are good. I’ll give it’s got a good seat always have a goo. The herb Suzuki gsx is had good seats got some bent leg situation going on. I’m 5’10” so a pretty comfortable standing position.
I can stand up and be well above the bike let’s get it in gear. This thing looks at that a gear indicator and a 250 I appreciate that all right you know what my back upright. My arms are kind of in a downward kind of comfortable position. My legs are surprisingly not cramped you know I’m in a more comfortable situation right now. Suzuki how good all the 250 and 300 bikes are doing and you were like. We got to get in on that up going even for 250 that’s held on out like turning this bike. I felt kind of weird just then that feels so wrong. I don’t like that at all so when I was turning out the dealership and the bike had this really weird like.
It felt like it took a lot of energy to get it over and you know it just wasn’t turning very easily. Now when I’m riding a 300 or 250 any type of small cc bike you know one of the things I kind of expect us to be. Real flicky again then this Michael is definitely not flicky. We’ll see how it is later on maybe I just like felt wrong or something. Suzuki is finally entering the smaller engine market you know Yamaha has there are three that I highly recommend. I love that bike Kawasaki has been in the market for a while they’ve had their you know ninja 250. They don’t make that anymore but they do make a Ninja 300. That’s also a phenomenal bike Honda has their low cc bike. To be honest I feel like it and it’s just there. It doesn’t even get close to being compared with the r3 and the Ninja 300. I’m interested to see where Suzuki comes in it. I don’t know why they went with a 250 like an engine.
I feel like it’s just a little too small maybe they’ve geared it really well. They’re supposedly the thing should be geared for maximum fun factor between the 15 and 55 miles per hour. We’ll have to see the man because I personally just don’t think 250. For a brand new person riding crew prove me wrong but first we got to see how this turning. Is all right and we’re lean it’s terrible to let’s change lane. I don’t know if it’s the type of wheels that are on this thing or what. Turning is not good you have to just muscle the bike. You should not have to do that with a freaking 250 cc bike. That’s not a good thing everything is a compromise you go with a 250 and at least you get a nimble bike. It doesn’t have a lot of engines and this one doesn’t have any engine. One thing I like about the r3 is up a bike doesn’t have a crazy amount of engine.
Really good fight the r3 is a good example of that where it’s a really flicky bike. The r3 has a really good engine for a 300 class bike. You know that’s not what makes it really awesome by you. This one we’re going to just there’s no way I can speed up. It’s really noble it still makes it a really fun bike to ride. This bike is it feels sluggish in a turn it feels I mean the power is underwhelming like if you buy a 250. You expect to have a lot of power you’re coming in with kind of the wrong expectations. I don’t expect this like to have a ton of power. I am interested in how it puts the power on and I’m also interested. I mean when you’re talking to hideous is this safe enough to have on a regular road. I’m giving this thing breaks man I’m pulling pretty hard to feel any sort of feedback from the bike. It’s neutral you can see the gear indicator. There’s nothing in right there does it make a lot of sense. If I can’t have a certain amount of acceleration to just be safe with the power of this motorcycle. I’m certainly not going to feel safe recommending this to somebody that doesn’t know how to ride.
I have to think about this bike as a beginner person starting to ride. They probably don’t know what they’re doing and they don’t need a lot of power. They do need enough power to get in and out of traffic. I’m kind of terrified to get on the highway with this thing. The brakes are also just not there I do need to stop I like that the brakes aren’t really strong for a beginner rider. You know when you’re a beginner rider you don’t have that muscle memory that tells you. Don’t do anything really fast you know if you pull the brakes in really fast. If you give the throttle really fast that’s how you do a wheelie. As a beginner rider, you don’t want to do that but by giving a new rider of a motorcycle. I don’t think you could lock the wheels up with this cup with. This bike you would have to just air up. You’d have to pull this so hard you pull your handlebars. If you’re looking for a bike with like fuel efficiency a 250 or 300 zip it going to be a good spot.
