I own a D250 and weight isn’t such big of an issue once you start moving, it’s only noticeable once I need to take it out of my parking lot. On the highways though it remains rock solid and planted to the ground. Plus the red color is a head turner! (Not to forget the amazing exhaust note which is so pleasing to the ears)
@@ahamadhussainthakurai4535 my Domi250 gives around 33 in city and 31 on highways.... but if you pull it on every corner the economy drops to 29.... the top speed u get on domi is 153kmph i personally have achieved it.
The advantage that shumi mentioned was that the SUZUKI GIXXER has somehow become bs6 compliant without any changes in weight and almost no change in it's performance specification at all.
The first advantage becomes even more pronounced with Gixxer 250 (naked) which is only 156kg and much easier to glide through the traffic due to the absence of front fairing. I bought it over SF cos the handlebars are a bit upright which is ideal for my daily 60kms city commute
In my personal experience and from the information from friends, the Dominar may be refined at first one-two years. But later the sound itself changes. The refinement levels will gradually decrease by time. Where as the Suzuki or Honda or Yamaha has best reliable engines. The Japanese engines are trustworthy. The Suzuki has a better balance of practicality and sportiness. Most of the people ignore suzuki machines. But once you tried it, it will make you happy. It is so nimble, well balanced, friendly and reliable.
Also my friend experienced same on dominar But another friend has dominar for 4years But his bike has no issues He said that it because of the bajaj engine oil and also not maintaining the engine well His bike is still smooth as new His bike is 60k ridden on it He uses liquimoly engine oil and also Motul Using both by changing in correct periods of servicing
The only reason i like the dominar more is the availability of spare parts and the more comfortable riding position Not to mention the pillion comfort is better too
No the gixxer sf 250 has very good comfort. You can really tuck in when needed and also you can sit almost straight without any discomfort. I think you're sayin this because of the clipons.
@@sidharthsankar1972 Both are comfy but Domi is better because of upright position with very minute aggresive position..very minute so it much more comfy
Don't forget that gixxer sf 250 is an entry level sportsbike... Due to the aerodynamics they have to built it that way. The pillion seat will be placed higher than the rider seat.
@@stupyshark9632 I think the gixxer is an entry level sports tourer, it's like the best of both worlds. But if you really wanna tour with a pillion you're better off with a himalayan or the cruisers. The design of the pillion seat is a whole another story if you ask me. In the himalayan also the pillion seat is higher than the rider seat. Even though the gixxer's pillion seat is higher it's adequately wide and supportive.
@@sidharthsankar1972 true but having the pillion seatlower would likely mean legs wouldn't fit well in front of the sidecases, or the feet would be too close to the exhaust, as well...but most touring motorcycles are meant to ride solo with the rear to mount luggage.
The first advantage shumi mentioned of the Suzuki GIXXER over the dominar 250 is that the dominar weight 180kg which is really heavy for a bike of this class. And the other thing is that the Suzuki GIXXER some how has become BS6-compliant without any change in weight and almost no change in its performance at all.
When Gixxer 250 was launched last year they stated that the bike is BS6 ready....... maybe that has to do with providing same power even after making it BS6 compatible
Honda Cbr250r is such a gem of a vehicle. Hope Honda will soon launch the upgraded version of it. Also Powerdrift in last 8 years never reviewed the cbr250r , I wish Shumi to do one , make some series of reviewing discontinued vehicles.🙏🙏🙏
Great review. The Gixxer 250 weighs less than the SF250, at about 156 kgs. How would you rate the naked 250 on the highways with an aftermarket taller windshield?
We are the reason for discontinuation of CBR... There are only about 40 units has sold before it has discontinued.. at the same time dukes are sold more than its 50 times of cbr.. Honda discontinued it and we are blaming honda for that.. i don't know why..😬
@@aswinraveendran Off course we will blame honda. People didnt buy it because it was lacking so much featutures and updated when compared to its competitors. It was outdated. (Not looks. Looks are awesome and manly)
@@SK-qc7pn It had an excellent engine and gearbox. Styling is subjective. But it was light and fuel efficient. It could tour long distance easily.

Very very similar engines and overall specifications are also similar. Only extra things are the screen and led lights and all that.
Why do you need higher revs except for highways? Gixxer SF is pathetic in highways. The aggressive stance won't allow you to ride it for long distances
The very first advantage of gixxer250 shumi mentioned over D250 was its weight.. Despite being the bs6 complient... It doest not affect the performance. Its lighter than D250... 👍🏻🏍️

Shumi talks about the Dominar being heavier than the Gixxer. I've been a fan of powerdrift for the longest time and have been saving cash for the past few months to buy the Dominar. I'd love a new Dominar especially a Dominar from powerdrift 😍
The first advantage mentioned by shumi of Suzuki Gixxer over Dominar 250 is, that it has become BS6 compliant without any change in its weight and any change in its performance specifications at all.
I think the gixxer is the most underrated bikes in its segment. I did a test ride of the naked sport version and it was impressive I should say! Although there are few features missing like slipper clutch, smaller display (which I don't think is a big deal), sohc engine over dohc and oil cooling over liquid cooling. It still is a great bike both for city as well as highway rides.
@@monkeymi4912 that's a surprise this bike is not seen much on the road. But honestly I feel this bike is much better than a RE. I myself owned thunderbird 350 cc and I bought it because of the hype that was created for this bike. Although re is a good bike, it has many downsides. And the bikes are considering only the retro design majorly thereby compromising on few basic things. For eg, Java is a great come back but I feel it's seating height is not comfortable for tall riders (although I've not tried so can't confirm), the power figures and better than re. The retro trend worked very well for RE but I don't see it a success for other bikes. This is only my personal opinion. Design and looks are again individual's personal choices.
Gixxer managed to retain the weight despite bs6 👍
Gixxer was launched as bs6- ready , even many reviewers mentioned it , maybe that's one reason

So good to see you back Varun
And it's a treat to see you guys exchanging quips❤️
The answer though is weight
Awesome video powerdrift
Haha! Thank you Swapnarun!
Thank you Swapnarun!
Give Away answer: "Substantial advantage is the weight, and you can feel it as soon as you climb onto it and it makes flicking through traffic a lot easier.
Is that Gixxer have BS6 without any weight and performance changed.
First comparison was about the weight of the two motorbikes in which the GF has the head over the Dominar.
Varun and Shumi together.
What else does pd army need?
Love you both ❤️❤️
Thanks Pratheek! Good to see you back!
@@shu_marTHANKS SHUMI!
GOOD TO SEE YOU BOTH BACK.
I WATCH EACHA AND EVERY VIDEO UPLOADED BY THIS CHANNEL BECAUSE ,"WHY NOT?".
Gixxer without fairing in the video would have been perfect.
yeah. Wasn’t available on our shoot dates! 🤷🏽♂️
Nothing .....and nothing ..
Varun : my head should look like a Pineapple 🍍😂
The first advantage that you mentioned of gixxer SF 250 over the dominar 250 is that the gixxer has become bs6 compliant without any changes in its performance, also it is 20 kgs lighter than the dominar
The design of Gixxer sf250 body with lower central gravity makes it more stable, agile and nimble...and of course it has lighter weight...
thus Shumi became class teacher asking ques...😭
I was confused between these two but then i went with the husqvarna svartpilen 250 instead now I am enjoying my decision
did u buy it?
@@asdf7301 yes I bought it
Me too
Shumi talks about the Dominar being heavier than the Gixxer.
I've been a fan of powerdrift for the longest time and have been saving cash for the past few months to buy the Dominar. I'd love a new Dominar especially a Dominar from powerdrift 😍
Brother they are not giving away dominar to winner , the giveaway is of few accessories
Gixxer 250 SF hving a steel braided break line or the normal one ?...cz im that kind of person who always go for the strong and punchy initial bite
Yamaha fz25? I think it deserves a mention here. It is supremely comfortable and if ridden sensibly makes a good budget touring tool. Any opinions?
Give away.
"The touring" Advantage
,🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Answer is Weight. Shumi says Suzuki has less weight.
First advantage mentioned by Shumi : Gixxer is lighter than the Dominar.
D250 is more refined than Sf250? Did i hear that statement correctly?
No mentioned about seat comfort,footrest comfort of rider and pillion
You guys are corporate and I really doubt how much I should trust you
But I love your video ❤️
We? Corporate? Couldn’t be further from the truth! Glad you liked the video!
powerdrift and corporate is as wild as politician and honest. lol
In love with zixxer 250❤❤ and itzz like a dream comes true... to get this one😍 but dominar plays and won the game ..if the weight is the point
Answer: The weight of Gixxer 250 is easily manageable in city as compared to Dominar 250
Weight..
1st advantage mentioned. In favor of Gixxer against the heavier Dominar
Why do you think 250CC segment is boring? Please suggest us some interesting segments available in India.
Nobody:
Chandler: Could the intro--bee more annoying?!!
First point by shumi :Gixxer has weight advantage over dominar.
Finally Varun is back🤩🤩
Missed you a lot bro
We knew he would keep his promise.
And yet, he’ll see you later only 🤣
The first advantage mentioned by shumi of Suzuki Gixxer over Dominar 250 is, that it has become BS6 compliant without any change in its weight and any change in its performance specifications at all.
also, Shazam doesn't seem to work...what is the song used in the beginning? Varun ? SHumi? ANyone? @ 2:05
Whatever i still love dominor❤️🔥😌
Dominar is 🔥🔥🔥 and very comfortable bike 😍😍
Bajaj dominar is mine❤️
Doing good job guys 👍 but honestly dominar 250 should be compared with Gixxer 250 (unfaired) instead of Sf250, what do you think ?
I think the gixxer is the most underrated bikes in its segment.
I did a test ride of the naked sport version and it was impressive I should say! Although there are few features missing like slipper clutch, smaller display (which I don't think is a big deal), sohc engine over dohc and oil cooling over liquid cooling. It still is a great bike both for city as well as highway rides.
It is a generic product hence failed, and the current trend in India is of the classic motorcycle like RE bikes, Jawa 42, Honda Highness
@@monkeymi4912 that's a surprise this bike is not seen much on the road. But honestly I feel this bike is much better than a RE. I myself owned thunderbird 350 cc and I bought it because of the hype that was created for this bike. Although re is a good bike, it has many downsides.
And the bikes are considering only the retro design majorly thereby compromising on few basic things. For eg, Java is a great come back but I feel it's seating height is not comfortable for tall riders (although I've not tried so can't confirm), the power figures and better than re.
The retro trend worked very well for RE but I don't see it a success for other bikes. This is only my personal opinion. Design and looks are again individual's personal choices.
