The GSX250R has a seat height of 790mm. As an entry-level sports bike, it features exquisite craftsmanship, rich configurations, and a durable engine, which are the highlights of this motorcycle. The GSX250R boasts a sports bike appearance, with its engine and frame derived from the GW250 platform. It is equipped with a 248ml twin-cylinder water-cooled fuel-injected engine, delivering a maximum power of 18.4kW (25Ps) at 8000rpm and a maximum torque of 23.4Nm at 6500rpm. In terms of configuration, the GSX250R includes features such as an anti-theft chip, front and rear disc brakes, and an ABS system, with ABS significantly enhancing the bike's safety. It has a minimum ground clearance of 160mm, a wheelbase of 1430mm, a curb weight of 178kg, and a fuel tank capacity of 15L. The GSX250R utilizes front and rear shock absorbers transplanted from the GW250 platform, providing excellent vibration damping when passing over speed bumps or slightly rough roads. It also comes with a full LCD instrument panel that clearly displays various riding data both day and night, along with a fuel consumption display function. For tires, the GSX250R is factory-equipped with IRC brand tires—110 at the front and 140 at the rear. In terms of lighting, the front and rear turn signals use LED sources, the headlight combines an LED daytime running light with a halogen bulb, and the taillight features a U-shaped LED light strip design.
I've been riding the GSX250R for several years, and its seat height is approximately 790mm, which is about 31 inches. At 175cm tall, I can comfortably plant both feet flat on the ground when seated, making it easy to stop in congested city traffic without worrying about wobbling. If your height falls between 170cm and 180cm, this seat height is ideal; however, if you're shorter, you might find it challenging to touch the ground with just your toes. Remember to test-sit the bike before purchasing—straddle it to see if your feet can easily reach the ground. When riding, seat height affects the bike's center of gravity, and the 790mm design enhances stability during turns and reduces fatigue on long rides. My daily half-hour commute never leaves me with backaches. In short, don't just rely on specifications; actually sitting on the bike gives the most reliable feel. The comfort level of this model ranks high among its sportbike peers, and I'd recommend it to friends who ride frequently for daily commutes.
