Commenting on the launch of BS6 compliant Gixxer series, Koichiro Hirao, Managing Director, Suzuki Motorcycle India said, "We feel proud to announce the launch of our BS6 compliant Gixxer series, ahead of the regulation deadline. Suzuki Motorcycle India has plans to grow at a robust pace with its flagship brand, Gixxer. Both BS6 compliant Gixxer SF and Gixxer, designed keeping the Indian customers in mind, have become even more environment friendly without compromising on the overall power and performance."
Both motorcycles get the same 155 cc single-cylinder motor which is air-cooled and makes 13.4 bhp at 8,000 rpm and 13.8 Nm at 6,000 rpm. The power and torque output drop marginally from 14 bhp and 14 Nm on both motorcycles. The gearbox too stays the same, a 5-speed unit. Apart from the changes to the engine to make it BS6 compliant, the motorcycles stay exactly the same in all other aspects.
