UPDATE! Yamaha has dropped FZS 25 prices by almost Rs 20,000. Details here - www.autocarindia.com/bike-news/yamaha-fz25-fzs25-prices-slashed-by-almost-rs-20000-420981
The original FZ was the king of the sporty 150cc bikes.....and it looked and went like nothing else on the market. The updates over the years have somehow lost the original charm of the FZ16. I badly wanted the FZ25 to win this, but the truth is the Gixxer does ride and look much better.
This was a long awaited 250cc comparison review... Suzuki 250 was good but don't know something is wrong with the design.... doesn't attract that much...
Yamaha India is sleeping I guess. In overseas they get WR155, MT07, SR400, R7 and my recent favorite the BOLT R. While here we get scooters and 150ccs FZ and R15. Level Up the game YAMAHA! Hardcore FANS are waiting!
Cbr250 was officially stopped due to lack of buyers..Now see the market of Cbr250😎..Gixxer too has the same situation..mark my words..after 4 yrs everyone will hail this quarter litre as a gem..cbr is hailed as a legend after the production stopped 😂..!
My 1st bike Fz 150 , using for last 4 years without visiting mechanic shop for a single time. Mileage 55 average . Surprisingly reliable , very less mantaince. Yes Yamaha!
You guys FINALLY got the new FZ-25 on the channel. I get it that Yamaha didn't do much to make it competitive enough since they want the R15 platform bikes to shine instead, but it's still a worthy contender
Gixxer 250 has great engine and dynamics but looses in the design department as it looks exactly like its younger brother which isn't a good thing. Yamaha on the other hand produces 6 PS less and yet just a secs slower then Gixxer is surprising. Also, not to forget FZ 250 has a character of its own and doesn't look like a scaled up FZ150 which is a great thing.
I almost waited for the bike for 6 months.. It finally didn't make it to smaller cities. Never felt yamaha wanted to sell FZ series. Neither the showroom guys were interested . I finally bought a Honda cb350 which costed me 34k extra. I'm happy..
Yamaha FZ250 Most Outdated 250CC Bike in India 2 Valve Engine (Out Dated) Box Swing Arm No slip & Assist clutch Out Dated LCD display In 250cc,5 speed Gearbox 🤦♂️ 20.5BHP & 20.1NM torque in 250cc (Under power) Almost 1.90lakh onroad Is it value for money?
I can understand that gixxer is a more powerful fun to ride one here, but don’t you say that the gixxer has better instrument cluster. All it has extra is the gear position indicator which frankly as useless as telling a professional batsman the name of the shot they just played. It might be helping absolute beginners but it has no value to riders who have at least ridden 2000 kms on the bike. That means beginners also outgrow the gear position indicator in couple of months. And top of that it misses out on fuel consumption, avg mileage and trip F. I just don’t understand why reviewers give the gear position indicator that much importance.
Only cos of outdated instrument console, me and some of my friends prefer gizzer. Yamaha need to stop seeling old left stock and spoil the brand name. I am tried of waiting for XSR , I will go for royal Enfield Meteor, or Honda rs 350
Gixxer's power and torque delivery is linear👍 , top end is limited at 154 kmph😂 , but bottom end to top end has linear power delivery🔥 almost well matched to all 6 gears✌️ . Fz's first 3 gears🔥 are more torquey🔥 and meant for city👍 - it's a perfect city bike more than a tourer😛 , that's why performance upto 100 kmph doesn't make much difference. But post 100 there is a lot of difference . Personal experience 😎of test riding fz in city for like 100+ kms and in highways for 70+ kms as well as 😎 Gixxer in both city 😎and highway😎 for few thousand kms .
Loud is good. We are obnoxiously loud & careless by nature. Step outside and listen.. nothing but birds. Because we are in Lockdown. Ill seriously consider an e-bike once there are quality and practical choices. I don't want this beautiful weather to end & Fuel prices are not getting cheaper anyway.
FZ25/FZS25 - No Non-sense and Beefy, Quarter litre bike for everyday frugal city usage and ocassional highway rides. Vs Gixxer 250/Gixxer 250 SF - Imposing and Enthusiastic, Quarter litre bike for those who doesn't want to own FZ25 or D250 but want the best bits of both the bikes in a single bike.
Everything is perfect except that tiny instrument cluster. Bike will look awesome while riding if yamaha provides a hybrid instrument cluster just like Pulsar N250 2021....if anyone from yamaha is reading this comment please note this feedback (or say customer voice)😀
The Gixxer is the better bike in every department but Suzuki has pathetic aftersales service. The Yamaha engine and the whole bike as a package looks ancient in comparison but Yamaha's aftersales service beats Suzuki hands down and local mechanics have seen more FZ25 than Gixxers. Choosing any would be a compromise in some manner, I just wish Bajaj had a light motorcycle with that Duke 250 engine.
Marketing strategies for yamaha and suzuki needs to change, they should concentrate more on sales and aftersales customer satisfaction. Though they are the best bikes someone can get and keep it atleast for another 15 years, their competitors sell more vehicle which are mostly having so many problems! Wake up japanese giants!
Suzuki in general has bad service centers they wantedly rip you off.. At least in my case it is like that for my asscess125 check your service center before taking a suzuki
What practicality are you guys talking about, I mean about FZ 25? Gixer 25 is better in everything thus it is a more practical bike. BTW this video was not very detailed one.

MT-09
i hated the new headlamps of Fz
but now I really like it somehow.
Why speedometer is flexing 🤯 with little pressure 2:44
Cbr250 was officially stopped due to lack of buyers..Now see the market of Cbr250😎..Gixxer too has the same situation..mark my words..after 4 yrs everyone will hail this quarter litre as a gem..cbr is hailed as a legend after the production stopped 😂..!
I own the fz25, the one with the old head lamp. The old lamp looks much better. Looks more aggressive as compared to new model.
Suzuki Gixxer Handaling is superb in heavy Traffic 🔥
Gixxer is the best and rightest choice. Naked is great in practicality thing too. A year with gixxer 250 and damn happy with it.
What about hard gear shifting and hard clutch? Because of rear foot peg City riding on heavy traffic is really bad?
Is it good for long touring?
My 1st bike Fz 150 , using for last 4 years without visiting mechanic shop for a single time. Mileage 55 average . Surprisingly reliable , very less mantaince.
Yes Yamaha!
Suzuki 250 is still King of 250 segments. Its Handling and Power are unbeatable in this segment.
You guys FINALLY got the new FZ-25 on the channel. I get it that Yamaha didn't do much to make it competitive enough since they want the R15 platform bikes to shine instead, but it's still a worthy contender

Yamaha is only interested in r15 and mt15
Gixxer build qualtiy & engine refinement is 10/10 rated.
Both should aim and get an adv on same platform. ADVs are the SUV of bikes and that’s where all the action is going to be hereon 🤟🏼
I own a gixxer 250 and love to ride it. Never disappoints you in any case.
What about hard gear shifting and hard clutch? Because of rear foot peg City riding on heavy traffic is really bad?
Do a comparison bw FZ25 and Dominar 250!
Luckily FZ250 is now in different segment 😂😂😂
Absolutely one of VFM Machine 💯
Yamaha FZ250
Most Outdated 250CC Bike in India
2 Valve Engine (Out Dated)
Box Swing Arm
No slip & Assist clutch
Out Dated LCD display
In 250cc,5 speed Gearbox 🤦♂️
20.5BHP & 20.1NM torque in 250cc (Under power)
Almost 1.90lakh onroad
Is it value for money?
Agreed 🤦😒
TVS Apache RTR 200 is better than this😂
SUZUKing 👑
Why people don't like Gixxer,such a classy machine
If Gixxer Headlamps has an agressive look it would been great!!
We want comparation of ktm duke 250 vs gixxer 250
Old Bajaj Chetak used to come with british green colour too...
How much is mileage of 250 Cc Gixxer ??
Where is KTM Duke 250 and Bajaj Dominar 250?
Wow what an impact team Autocar India the review has resulted an price cut of approx 19.5k on fzs25 and even fz25. Kudos to ur review. 👍👍👍
- The RE Conti GT 535 used to come with the British Green color scheme from the factory.
Fz25s engine on XSR155s frame.
Any possibility?
I see a lot of breakdown in long rides of vloggers . Any suggestions which bike is most reliable for long touring . ? Budget no issue .
Suzuki gixxer 250🔥🔥🔥rocket
Now fz25 is undoubtedly the best value for money
Finally an FZs that looks sexy af
I can understand that gixxer is a more powerful fun to ride one here, but don’t you say that the gixxer has better instrument cluster.

i like gixxer 250 🌹🌹
where's the triumph trident review?
The visuals are superb
Thank you! 🙏🏻
Only cos of outdated instrument console, me and some of my friends prefer gizzer. Yamaha need to stop seeling old left stock and spoil the brand name. I am tried of waiting for XSR , I will go for royal Enfield Meteor, or Honda rs 350
Is the fz due for an update soon?
Gixxer's power and torque delivery is linear👍 , top end is limited at 154 kmph😂 , but bottom end to top end has linear power delivery🔥 almost well matched to all 6 gears✌️ .

Whether fz 25 will get discontinued? No bs6 phase 2 update planning to buy , otherwise need to think about ns200
Loud is good. We are obnoxiously loud & careless by nature. Step outside and listen.. nothing but birds. Because we are in Lockdown. Ill seriously consider an e-bike once there are quality and practical choices. I don't want this beautiful weather to end & Fuel prices are not getting cheaper anyway.
Which one is best for long time use?
FZ25/FZS25 - No Non-sense and Beefy, Quarter litre bike for everyday frugal city usage and ocassional highway rides.
Vs
Gixxer 250/Gixxer 250 SF - Imposing and Enthusiastic, Quarter litre bike for those who doesn't want to own FZ25 or D250 but want the best bits of both the bikes in a single bike.
Where is dominar 250?
Suzuki Gixxer 250 twins.❤️
Great comparo. My pick is the Gixxer!
Does fz25 comes with center stand ...?
still waiting for a Yamaha 6 geared 200-300cc bike
Everything is perfect except that tiny instrument cluster. Bike will look awesome while riding if yamaha provides a hybrid instrument cluster just like Pulsar N250 2021....if anyone from yamaha is reading this comment please note this feedback (or say customer voice)😀
Suzuki gixxer 250 always 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Location is safale road in palghar district
Near NH 8
Bring the white FZS25 , and then compare it to Gixxer 25 moto gp edition in looks department
make 390 adv vs Himalayan vs CB500x vs TRK502
Bro can you please make a video on FZs25 vs hornet 2.0
If possible then please compare duke 250 vs dominer 400
Do comparison with all 250cc segment bikes
1080p 50 fps looks great 👍👌🏻
The fz 25 looks very ugly
Fz looks like a angry cat
Gixxer 250 for me 🙌
Love your videos auto car ❤️❤️ keep going God bless you all

5 gear in fz 250 ?
Why not 6 gear to more comfort
Next Speed triple 1200 rs review and comparison 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
British green on a Japanese bike is definitely inferior to the forest green on a Bullet 500.
Nice view, which river is this?
We want, these 2 with Dominar 250
Do Compare with Gixxer 250 and NS200
Suzuki should make a sports tourer 250 with that gixxer engine.
Fz looks like the alien from alien vs Predator
To me the front of the Yamaha looks or resembles more of the xenomorph from the alien series.
Fz 25 most 3rd cls bike
250cc 20 bhp ???🤮Air cooled 🤮5 speed 🤮🤮🤮
Dnt compare it with gixxer plz
The design of the suzuki is ugliest of all 250cc bikes.
Hiii Autocar suzuki burgmen street electronic when"ll be launched?
First view any reward for me😂
If u have checked the breaking power for the both the bike will be fine…..
gixxer❤️

Fz25 now has a price drop of around 19k.
Suzuki in general has bad service centers they wantedly rip you off.. At least in my case it is like that for my asscess125 check your service center before taking a suzuki
Yamaha headlight looks contempary to you or just bad design.
I like dominar 250 for highway nd traffic , exhaust note ❤️
Fz25 has superb looks and price
When will you do a Triumph Trident Review?
Comparing to previous Fz 25
bike looks are awkward in new one
👍👍
le Duke : keep fighting 👍👍👍
Fz is now 34000 cheaper now wtf😂😂
Fz looks ugly and its so sad because it was a looker
Is it just me or the gixxer does really look like a duke 390?
Gixxyyyyyy
Both are outdated motorcycles 😂
Both are feature deficient and overpriced
Fz25
The perfect all rounder ❣️
What practicality are you guys talking about, I mean about FZ 25? Gixer 25 is better in everything thus it is a more practical bike. BTW this video was not very detailed one.
Gixxer pillion seat height is high and size is small as well. Even Male passenger would not like it.
Mileage Gixxer High 🙄 and fz mileage low 😨
