Suzuki PH expands Gixxer lineup with SF 155 launch

Suzuki Philippines Incorporated (SPH) has completed the Gixxer lineup in the country with the launch of the new SF 155.

The newest entry-level sport motorcycle in the market — dubbed the “Urban Predator” — is eyed to further contribute to the badge’s success locally, which was able to sell more than 26,000 examples since it entered the country in 2015.

In a statement, the company said that the Suzuki Gixxer SF 155 are for those "who crave speed and control."

With the introduction of the SF 155, Suzuki now has four offerings under the aforementioned badge: Gixxer 155 and 250, as well as the SF250.  

Dimensions

The new Suzuki Gixxer SF155 is 2,025 millimeters (mm) long; 715 mm wide; and 1,035 mm tall with a 1,340-mm wheelbase and 165-mm ground clearance.

Since it is a sport-faired version, the latest offering is around six kilograms heavier than the Suzuki Gixxer 155.

Aesthetics

The new Suzuki Gixxer SF155’s low-center-of-gravity orientation is matched by a sleek, crouched silhouette with trapezoidal proportions that creates an athletic appeal that many riders would love.

Additionally, it also wears a beak-like front fascia, rear tire hugger, split seats, and a twin muffler set-up that gives that Hayabusa charm.

Allowing the rider to maneuver the motorcycle while complementing the sporty allure are the following:

• Clip-on handlebars
• 17-inch tubeless radial tires (100 mm wide for the front and 140 mm wide for the rear).

Performance

The new Suzuki Gixxer SF 155 is equipped with a 155 cubic centimeter (cc) four-stroke, single cylinder, single overhead cam, two-valve Suzuki Eco Performance (SEP) engine — which can also be seen in its street sport counterpart. It is paired with a five-speed manual transmission.

As shared by SPH, its latest offering can do 50 kilometers per liter (based on World Motorcycle Test Cycle standards) and has the capacity to provide 14 horsepower and 14 Newton-meters of torque.

Its stopping power comes from the 300-mm front and rear disc brakes while comfort and stability are assured by the telescopic front fork and swing arm with seven-step suspensions for the rear.

Technology

The new Suzuki Gixxer SF 155 is fitted with some of the technologies found on its naked twin such as the full digital gauge cluster and an all-LED illumination system (head- and tail lamps).

Pricing, colors

Retailed in Pearl Glacier White with Metallic Triton Blue as well as Glass Sparkle Black color options, the new Suzuki Gixxer SF 155 can be had for P114,900.
