I heard some people got new regulators.
Will they change it by default or do we have to complain about poor headlight to get the new regulators ?
Hi All,

This is my first post on xBhp.

I am from Bangalore, own a Suzuki GS150 and have clocked about 5500 KM till now. Completed 3 free services. I have come to know about free service camp from xBhp site and in hte process registered for both the serviec camp as well as xbhp portal :-)

Then I have gone though ALL 390+ pages of this thread and tried to list out some generic issues with the bike everybody reported :

*) How to find the manufacturing date & month of bike from the engine number or any other number? This will indicate if my bike is from some of the early batches produced.

*) poor rear brakepad/brake spring - I find that there is less bite from rear brake but it is somewhat effective at the end of the day. Is it just a lack of feedback OR less effective in the first place? How to get it corrected in case there is a permanent solution?

*) squeaking sound from front brake/suspension

*) old rectifier/regulator ( serial number xxxxxxAA found next to engine, should be changed to xxxxxxBA ) - mine is indicationg xxxxxxAA. What is the problem with it and is it a MUST to replace this with xxxxxxBA?

*) very high heel shifter - I guess this can be adjusted

*) handle bar height adjustment - somebody in this forum mentioned that it can be lowered in service center. is it true?

*) handle lock - left side not locking properly. can it be corrected?

*) Tank rust issue - how to verify this?

*) poor grip of front tyres - I find the front tyre is having less grip. any solutions/suggestions?

*) vibrations at 3500rpm - I think it's a minor issue.


Please comment on these issues. I will discuss them when I go to the service camp tomorrow.

Thanks for bearing with me.

Regards,
Sreenivasulu Y
