What is the top speed of the GSX250R?
2 Answers
GSX250R motorcycle has a top speed of around 140 km/h. In actual operation, the achievable speed may vary due to factors such as vehicle condition, road conditions, and driving skills. Here is some relevant information about motorcycles: Types of driving licenses: Currently, there are three types of motorcycle licenses in China: F, E, and D. The F license only allows the operation of mopeds with engine displacements below 50CC, but this type of license is rarely pursued. The E license permits the operation of any two-wheeled motorcycle regardless of displacement, while the D license allows the operation of all two-wheeled and three-wheeled motorcycles. Therefore, with an E license, one can operate all two-wheeled motorcycles, and there is no separate license required for large-displacement motorcycles. Concept: A motorcycle is a two-wheeled or three-wheeled vehicle powered by a gasoline engine and steered by handlebars. It is lightweight, flexible, and fast, widely used for patrol, passenger and cargo transportation, and also serves as sports equipment.
I often commute on the GSX250R, which has an official top speed of around 140 km/h. In my own tests on flat ground with no wind, I could reach 138 km/h, and at 70 kg body weight, it was consistently stable at this speed. Riding this bike, I found that top speed is influenced by many factors: lighter riders can go 3-5 km/h faster, downhill with full throttle I once hit 142 km/h, but uphill it immediately drops to 130 km/h. Aftermarket exhaust modifications don’t make much difference and actually increase vibrations noticeably. It’s perfectly adequate for daily city riding and has enough power for highway overtaking, but I wouldn’t recommend running at top speed for extended periods as it causes significant engine wear. Tire grip starts to weaken above 130 km/h, so extra caution is needed, especially on wet or slippery roads.
