Suzuki Gixxer 110 Review, Test Ride

Suzuki’s Gixxer siblings are fun and attractive. The Gixxer in these pages is all that, and a little bit more…

The last time I went out on a track piloting a purpose-built race machine, it went rather well. I brought home a trophy for our magazine. That was on four wheels though. My ‘racing’ experience on two wheels has been nothing short of embarrassing. That’s primarily because the one race I participated in (more like forced to participate in), I was on the grid against teenagers weighing about as much as my left thigh! Just to give you a sense of what I’m saying – I weighed in about double of those kids, and the bike I was on had an insignificant (110cc) engine with cellular levels of power.

For our 4th anniversary in 2010-11, we headed to the MMSC track in Sriperumbudur where Jared and I rode a pair of race-prepped bikes from Yamaha and Honda, which respectively make up their 150cc one-make racing series. That was over 5 years ago, and things have definitely moved northwards since then. The Suzuki Gixxer cup bike proves that.
