An entry-level single-cylinder cruiser with a bargain price and excellent fuel efficiency.

  • CategoryStreet / Cruiser, Commuter, Entry-Level
  • Displacement 249cc
  • WeightNot Listed
  • List Price $3499

While entry-level bikes should be inexpensive to own and operate, there's nothing to be gained from cut-rate styling. Despite having many of the classic visual cues of larger cruisers, the GZ250 is one of the two least-expensive streetbikes (along with the new TU250) in Suzuki's lineup and an exceptionally unintimidating machine for riders just starting out. The GZ's low seat height, light and narrow chassis and feathery-smooth control operation combine with mellow power output to provide an ideal mount for those learning to ride on the street.
