Rider FitA low seat height and light overall weight make it approachable for shorter or less physically strong riders.
CharacterIt has a mild-mannered, practical, and unintimidating personality suited to relaxed street riding.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the right bike for riders seeking high speed thrills, aggressive cornering performance, or serious long-distance touring comfort.

2016 Suzuki GSR250 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 2016 Suzuki GSR250, with a relaxed knee angle of around 120 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.
