Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a friendly, forgiving machine well suited to new riders or those wanting a light, unintimidating step up from a beginner bike.
PurposeIt's built primarily as an approachable, fuel-efficient commuter and city runabout rather than a performance or long-distance machine.
Rider FitA low-ish 780mm seat height and modest 188kg dry weight make it manageable for shorter or less physically strong riders.
CharacterThe four-cylinder 250cc engine gives a smooth, rev-happy character with a sportier soundtrack than typical single-cylinder rivals, though outright power is modest.
Not Ideal ForIt's not a good fit for riders wanting serious highway touring capability, two-up comfort over distance, or genuine off-road use.

2015 Suzuki GSR250S Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 780mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2015 Suzuki GSR250S, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
