Pros:
Looks that turn heads
One of the most noticeable advantages of getting the Suzuki Gixxer SF 155 is its sporty looks. As we have briefly covered above, the said model looks like a good daily driver, which riders can be proud of.
After all, it bears a striking resemblance to the Suzuki Hayabusa.
Its front is highlighted by a strong and sharp-looking fascia with a short yet functional windshield. The cowling also houses the headlamp together with what appears to be a lower front lip spoiler, serving as a precursor to the aerodynamic fairings found of its sides.
Speaking of which, its flanks wear smooth and contoured claddings. These seem to wrap around the motorcycle’s front end to the gasoline tank. They also cover the majority of the two-wheeler’s engine and protect the important components of the bike.
At the back, the Suzuki Gixxer SF 155 wears a sexy tail that tapers down to the end. There, a tail lamp can be found with an extended fender with integrated turn signals, a reflector, and a plate holder.
The Suzuki Gixxer SF 155 also sport notable features like a flat but comfortable seat as well as a sporty twin exhaust system.
Decent power
In betwixt the rider’s thigh is a 155 cubic centimeter engine paired with a five-speed manual transmission system.
Together, it generates a maximum of 14 horsepower with 14 Newton-meters of torque. The engine clocks in at 50 kilometers per liter.
With the said numbers, the Suzuki Gixxer SF 155 offers decent power that matches its looks and overall vibe. Sure, it’s not an expressway-legal model, but it still produces enough grunt to provide a fun experience for riders who want a capable daily motorcycle that can see them through their everyday tasks.

Cons:
Only comes in one variant
The Suzuki Gixxer SF 155 is offered in the Philippines in a single variant.
While having only a single variant eliminates the need to pick which trim is best for one’s budget and motoring needs, it is also true that having multiple models at hand can help one pick a motorcycle tailored for his or her needs.
The only level of personalization that the Suzuki Gixxer SF 155 offers is the two colorways it comes in, which is Pearl Glacier White and Metallic Triton Blue and Glass Sparkle Black.
