Suzuki launched the
Gixxer 250 in India at an ex-showroom price tag of INR 1,59,800* yesterday. The
company has also released several accessories for the quarter-litre bike in our
market. In this post, we list all these optional items that are available for
this model. The optional Suzuki accessories for the new Gixxer 250 enhance the
protection and offer more functionality.
Knee Grip Pad Tank
Protector
The Knee Grip Pad
Tank Protector aims to guard the sides of the fuel tank against scratches that
may occur due to friction. It comes in a transparent finish to provide
protection without affecting the aesthetics visually.
Tank Pad
The Tank Pad
protects the paint of the motorcycle against scratches from belt buckles. The
wide design of the Tank Pad offers comprehensive protection to the fuel tank
against the damaging elements while adding a sporty look to the quarter-litre
bike.
Bumper Brackets (Or
Crash Guards)
The Bumper
Brackets, more commonly known as crash guards, are designed to save the body
panels of the motorcycle in case of a fall. The black paint of the crash guards
should merge well with the colour options available for the Gixxer 250.
DC Socket
This optional
accessory brings the convenience of an onboard charger to juice-up the
electronic devices during the rides. The accessory will come handy during
touring to recharge cell phones and navigation devices.
Knuckle Cover
The Knuckle Cover
can perform two tasks – protect the rider’s knuckles and save the brake/clutch
levers in case of a fall. The Knuckle Covers are a common accessory on
off-road-focused motorcycles.
Saddle Bags
Suzuki has also
announced a pair of Suzuki branded saddlebags for the Gixxer 250. The soft
luggage accessories should also fit other Suzuki products perfectly well.
Skid Plate
The SkidPlate aims
to offer extra protection to the engine against taller-than-usual speed
breakers or other obstructions that may test the ground clearance of the Gixxer
250. The skid plate does not require the under-cowl removal, thus helping
retain the sporty styling of the bike.
Suzuki Motorcycle
India has not posted the prices for the accessories on its website but you can
get the complete list through a certified outlet near you. The Suzuki Gixxer
250’s direct rival, the Yamaha FZ25, too comes with a wide range of
accessories.
