  • Fz 25 or gixxer sf

    Im looking to buy a new bike for city commutes n touring. I'm confused between the fz 25 and gixxer SF. I'm a short guy at 5" 5' and weigh 58 kilos. Which one do u guys think will suit me well ?

    Biking is not about what you have between your legs, its all about how well you use it!!!!!!!

      On paper, the figures of Gixxer make it more suitable to your body weight. Practically, you'll be in a better position than we are to find out which bike is more suitable to you. I suggest you take a couple of extensive TDs to make a decision.

      If monies are not a constraint, then I suggest you go ahead with the FZ25 for it's a better jack of all trades.

      Cheers!

        Money is not a big constrain. But I don't wanna regret getting a bike that I ll have a tough time riding. Although the weight diff is only 8 kilos n seat height is also almost same. Anyways I ll test ride both[emoji106]

          Both are fantastic bikes. Money/Mileage not being a concern i would chose the FZ25 simply for the better displacement and better pillion comfort ( although i have not rode the FZ25, i assume pillion comfort would be better based on reports). Touring would also be more relaxed.

              FZ25, Bigger displacement, less stress on highways whilst cruising at higher speed compared to SF (ignore the wind blast factor for now). Height I am not sure, you might tip-toe, but a TD can shatter all myths.

                Why not consider Apache 200 for your height.
