Yamaha Ray-ZR 125FI vs Suzuki Gixxer SF 250 Comparison

Intended for a younger crowd, the Yamaha RayZR 125 Fi looks stylish thanks to its retro design. But its positives are not limited to its looks as the engine is equally potent and has high refinement level with a linear power deleivery to make cruising easy. But we don't like the overall plastic quality of the scooter and Yamaha could've worked on this. Leg space is inadequate, and makes hooking up titbits difficult. The brakes also could've been better as it lacks initial bite.

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.
