Suzuki Inazuma 250 / GW250 / GSR 250 - Walk around and short ride

(Dutch below)
2013 Suzuki Inazuma 250 (A2 licence), perfect bike for beginners. Isn't that fast, ain't that powerful,
but really perfect for starters. Top speed about 140km/h - 88mph.

Consumption: 62.4MPG (US)
=======================
2013 Suzuki Inazuma 250 (A2-rijbewijs), een perfecte motor om mee te beginnen. Niet echt snel of krachtig en de meeste A2 motorrijders zullen direct voor een 35kW motor gaan. Toch is het leuk om hier op te beginnen en ik heb dan ook plezier gehad tijdens het rijden op deze motor. Topsnelheid 140km/u, het lukte anderen om nog wat harder te gaan. 4699 euro en 3 jaar garantie, niet verkeerd! Lees de review op:

I'm getting this in a few months. Awesome videon mang

[@MotoSnax]

Thanks. :) Have fun with your Inazuma when you get it in a few months!

[@natalie4951]

Great video :D Thanks for the view! Fun looking bike!

[@MotoSnax]

Thanks for watching, glad you liked it!

[@carla.n.5078]

I have this, and many comment on how the front looks with the turnlights being inbedded within the bike. I tell them it comes down to taste. Personally use it as a communter/tourbike as it has a very confy seat for longer trips.

[@HelmetCustomscom]

i think it looks better with the GW250 lettering on the tail rather than the inazuma sticker. I think they should have atleast kept the letting of inazuma in chrome, if only a sticker or plastic lettering. Really Fun bike to get around

[@pawelonline]

This is very nice video...

[@Fx3]

Nice video! :) I must choose between this OR the Gladius.

[@MotoSnax]

Thanks. I'd go for the Gladius. More torque and hp. Weighs a bit more, but the 250 is a bit too heavy for it's power output.

[@HelmetCustomscom]

yeah probably right, atleast the 125/150 thunder got the right name (for the sound) - but actually even that bike is not as loud as the name would imply

[@MotoSnax]

Thanks :)

[@MotoSnax]

Hi! Well, I'm 1,80m and had no problems with it, but with 1,90m maybe it starts getting a little too small. Best thing to do is visit your local Suzuki dealer and make a testdrive or at least sit on it.

[@usmanmaqsood3031]

Amazing

[@MotoSnax]

@NAWMSAYIN! It only has disc brakes, I don't see a drum. I don't have ABS on my bikes and though it is safer, I never fell off, even when front tire slipped away due to heavy breaking. Matter of luck or just good roads over here. Duke 390 is totally different and if I could choose between those two, I'd take the KTM. But just because it's lighter and has more power, not because of the braking system.

[@pantherax1]

cant decide having this or the gz 150 i like the sound from this bike thou

[@MotoSnax]

Well, the Inazuma has more torque and a higher top speed. The downside is that it's quite heavy compared to the GZ150. I'd go for the Inazuma any time.

[@IMPNful]

Até que esse povo se entende bem com essas ruas estreitas.

[@MotoSnax]

We don't have the Thunder 125/150 in Europe.. or at least not in The Netherlands, but any exhaust will probably justify it's name. Where are you from originally? I like the videos of your rides in China. Another world. :)

[@MotoSnax]

Inazuma is a wrong name for this bike (you'd expect a bike fast as lightning), so GW250 or GSR250 would have been a better choice. Nowhere on the bike can be seen it's a 250cc. It's indeed a fun bike to get around with.

[@Noobyolo89]

Hi there, I am planning to buy an inazuma. Just wondering if the twin exhausts are okay or too noisy when riding ?

[@MotoSnax]

The stock exhausts are okay. I'd even rather prefer a little bit more noise.

[@Parker4321]

Is it Made in Japan?

[@MotoqueiroClandestino]

Where do you live? This motorcycle is starting to sell here in Brazil now (2014). It likes a very heavy bike (almost the same weight of my GS500F).

[@MotoSnax]

I'm from The Netherlands, Europe. I think it weighs around 182kgs. That's almost the same as the GS500. It's a heavy bike for only 250cc's.

[@MotoSnax]

Ik kreeg 'm op 140km/u. Zie einde van de video. Dit is niet mijn motor, ik rijd ze voor tests, zie URL in het about-veld van deze video of de url in de video zelf. Daar staan ook testverslagen van de 250cc CBR en Ninja. Mijn voorkeur uit deze 3? De CBR250. Net wat meer pit (en lager gewicht) dan de Inazuma en leuker dan de Kawa. Maar probeer op alle 3 een proefrit om voor jezelf te beslissen. Vraag je CBR250 of Ninja 300? Dan de Ninja 300. Heb ik ook verslag+video van.

[@toxicduke]

Whats the real mileage / consumption for the Inazuma 250? (please include if UK or USA gallons)

[@MotoSnax]

About 62.4 mpg (US gallons).

[@richk8296]

Is the engine powerful enough to travel with a passenger about 80-90 km/h ? I don't need super acceleration, just keep up with cars.

[@MotoSnax]

+Rafał Kusnierczyk I don't think that would be a problem. 80-90km/h. Keeping up with cars should be possible. Maybe you can make a test ride at a dealership to see for yourself?

[@richk8296]

+Amersfoort81 thanks. I will, but till then I'm doing research and I think Inazuma will be my choice :)

[@julianfXd]

hey :) ... two things: first: your video is really good second: could you please say me witch licence you need for this bike ? Thanks ;)

[@MotoSnax]

Thanks. It's for the A2 licence. I will change the description, because I forgot to mention it in the description. Thanks. :)

[@julianfXd]

thanks

[@RyGuyTheAVGuy]

what country are you from were you need different license for different bikes??

[@julianfXd]

Austria

[@MotoSnax]

Ryan Frizell Since 2013 a new European legislation divides licenses. A1 (125cc, 11kW max power), A2 for max 35kW power and A for full power. Depending on your age you get A1 or A2. From 24 years and up you can go full power. Not all European countries have this new law, but most of them do.

[@fedemejia8769]

Which oil do you use?

[@MotoSnax]

I don't own the bike, but if I had this bike I would use 10w40 in it. :)

[@wainedodd8055]

👍

[@felixpontzen7610]

Inazuma Speed is OK to Bike on Roads...Perfekt for Me...Inazuma is coming... :-)

[@pakiaye2338]

Placement of the mike not right ! Bike sound suppressed by the wind

[@MotoSnax]

Oh, that was my old camera. :) I've switched it long time ago for something with external mic. Check the latest videos on my channel for better sound. Without external mic is awful. :)

[@MotoSnax]

I think it's made in China, not in Japan.

[@Guillaume_F]

yes it is.

[@myheaven2626]

Its not good to accelerate bike on cold .once you switch on the engine let it on around 2 minutes then you can accelerate .tips you should know for the long life of your engine .thanks

[@MotoSnax]

Yeah but this engine was not cold.

[@myheaven2626]

@@MotoSnax great

[@myheaven2626]

Am also owner of gw250 its a very good bike 👌

[@MotoSnax]

It is not bad... but what is bad is the maintenance interval. Valve checks every 5000 km. But maybe that interval can be extended to 10-15k km or so.
