Suzuki India teases the new Gixxer - could be the Suzuki GSX 250R?
Suzuki motorcycles have asked us at OVERDRIVE to block our dates for May 20, 2019. The press release doesn't reveal much other than a teaser of the upcoming motorcycle. We say motorcycle (and not a scooter) because we at OVERDRIVE believe the teased motorcycle could be the Suzuki GSX 250R (Gixxer 250).

It was about time the Indian market saw Suzuki's contender rival the Yamaha FZ-25, KTM Duke 250 and the Honda CBR 250R. The GSX 250R is a fully faired motorcycle which could be placed as a sports tourer in the Indian market. The bike offers a sporty yet relaxed rider's position.
