At the heart of the 2021 Suzuki Gixxer 250 sport motorcycle, Suzuki features a 249 cc (15.2 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 26 HP (19 kW) at 9,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 22 Nm (16.2 lb-ft) at 7,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 104.4 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (7,500 rpm) and peak power (9,000 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the Gixxer 250 measures 155 kg (342 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.17 HP/kg (5.96 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 800 mm (31.5 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance. The 12-liter (3.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
