Suzuki Gixxer SF 250 vs JAWA 42 Comparison

In India, it will go up against the likes of the Honda CBR250R, Yamaha Fazer25 and the KTC RC200 and at a price of ₹ 1.71 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi), we believe the Gixxer SF 250 to be a solid purchase in its segment. It looks good, has decent performance and handles quite well too. It sporty enough to be ridden around switchbacks and can handle daily commuting too with equal aplomb. It may have entered a little late to the 250 cc - 400 cc segment but it is definitely a well-rounded package.

The Jawa Forty Two offers the entry-level model into the new Jawa range of bikes. It still has the same qualities as the standard Jawa - same performance, same ride quality and same likeable road manners. The Jawa Forty Two gets a beautiful modern classic design, with decent set of features that may not be comparable to rivals but gets the job done. Of course, after sales service could be an issue as the Jawa network isn't as widespread as some of the rival companies.
