Suzuki Inazuma 250

The Suzuki Inazuma 250 has a top speed of 145 km/h, produces 24 hp and weighs 181 kg. Motoryk rates it 6.5/10.

El Suzuki Inazuma 250 (GW250) se presentó en 2012 como un vehículo doble paralelo de bajo consumo de combustible y apto para principiantes, destinado principalmente a los mercados asiáticos y europeos, reviviendo la placa de identificación del Inazuma utilizada por última vez a finales de la década de 1990. Fue, sin duda, una de las primeras bicicletas urbanas modernas de 250 cc fabricadas por Suzuki en esa época, ya que ofrecía una entrega de potencia suave y un estilo clásico que atraía a los nuevos ciclistas. Con el tiempo, el modelo tuvo éxito y evolucionó hasta convertirse en la Suzuki Gixxer SF 250 y una gama relacionada, a medida que Suzuki cambiaba su estrategia de pequeña cilindrada.

⚙️

Bulletproof Parallel Twin

The 248cc parallel-twin engine is known for exceptional reliability, often running well past 30,000 miles with basic maintenance. It shares DNA with Suzuki's proven GS series, giving it a strong mechanical track record.

🔧

Watch the Carburetor

Older GW250 models use carburetors prone to gumming up if the bike sits unused for extended periods. Always ask sellers about storage history and inspect for smooth idle and clean fuel delivery before buying.

💰

Holds Value Steadily

The Inazuma 250 retains resale value better than many entry-level bikes due to its reputation for durability and low running costs. Its appeal to new riders keeps used demand consistently strong.

7.8/10

"Un gemelo vivaz que recompensa a los ciclistas pacientes y comprometidos."

He pilotado una GJ73A durante dos años como viajero diario y, de vez en cuando, rasca los fines de semana, y lo que te queda es lo duro que tienes que esforzarte: por debajo de las 8000 rpm es educado hasta el punto de aburrirse, pero supera las 9000 y el gemelo paralelo se despierta con un chillido genuinamente adictivo. La configuración del DOHC es una ingeniería honesta para su época; nada exótico, pero sí ajustada y suave de una manera que parece diseñada para durar en lugar de diseñada para impresionar a una sala de exposición. La sincronización de los carburadores requiere atención cada 8 o 10 000 kilómetros o el ralentí se vuelve irregular y el repostaje se vuelve torpe a media distancia, que es la única tarea de mantenimiento que te sorprenderá. Con 169 kg en superficie mojada, no es tan liviano para un 250, pero el asiento bajo y la geometría neutra hacen que el tráfico urbano sea realmente fácil una vez que dejas de luchar contra su naturaleza vertiginosa.

Pros

+El doble DOHC es mecánicamente a prueba de balas
+Recompensa la entrega de energía a altas revoluciones
+El asiento bajo se adapta a los pasajeros más bajos
+El estilo retro envejece con gracia
+Abundantes piezas usadas en Japón

Contras

Por debajo de las 8.000 RPM
Los carbohidratos necesitan una sincronización frecuente
Pesado para una bicicleta de 250 cc
Sin potencia por debajo de 9k
Lo mejor para: Pacientes pasajeros que disfrutan de la interacción mecánica Omitir si: Odias los viajes a altas revoluciones
2012–2017 Gen 2 (GW250)

Bicicleta paralela de 248 cc completamente rediseñada con inyección de combustible, estilo moderno de café-racer, dirigida al mercado global.

Reseña de un comprador usado

Lo mejor para
New riders wanting reliable, stress-free urban commuting

"A honest, unfussy commuter that punches exactly at its weight."

$2,500-$4,500 used

The Inazuma 250 is one of those bikes that gets unfairly dismissed because it lacks the street cred of a Ninja or CBR. Here's the truth: it's a genuinely pleasant commuter with a smooth parallel-twin that pulls cleanly from low revs and doesn't punish you for lazy gear changes. The retro-ish styling has aged reasonably well, and build quality is typically Suzuki solid — these things don't fall apart. That said, manage your expectations hard. Top-end performance is genuinely underwhelming even by 250 standards, and the suspension is marshmallow-soft for anyone over 170 pounds. On used examples, check the rear shock carefully — it's the first thing to go vague. Also inspect the fuel injection system; some owners neglected basic maintenance and throttle response suffers for it. Parts availability isn't great outside major cities. For a new rider wanting an unfussy, comfortable city bike that won't embarrass itself on weekend runs, it makes real sense. Just don't buy one thinking you'll grow into it — you'll outgrow it fast.
