I told them abt the braking, headlight and resonance at 3.5k rpm things.... They noted them down... They test drove my bike and wrote down the feedback that i gave... Actually japanese are not so good in english... It took a long time for me to explain the things to them... They told me that they will get back to me in 2 weeks with the issues

And they gave me a t-shirt and a parker pen as compliment

Hey buddy, even i met the Japanese people 2day and reported the issues....
Me to got that T-Shirt but not the parker pen....
I have reported about low mileage issue, the service head 4 india promised me that he will personally tweak my bike on his next visit..
Seems to be like Suzuki is more confident about this bike and trying to serve their customers based on their feedbacks.

one thing before i say anything
i like your signature

friends........ dont go completely with the magazines or website thingies
you should experience things yourself

and whats the actual need of comparing
i mean....... if new pulsar is worst......... gs is bad
but in the end its bad na,.,,,,,,
and after all you will not have a happy experience
many people here dont find the brakes adequate
( just an example to explain things )
hope sam does not see this

PS : no advice or nasehat
just my opinion

Have any of you tried to fix the pulsar's / CBZ-X's split grab rails on your GS ? I'm not sure if they could be fitted in without any mods. Personally feel the pulsar's grab rails would deffo give a new look to the GS.

Default My ownership experience update :-

Its 205 km on odo. I will change headlight next week. Those 3.5k vibes sometimes come, sometimes don't at all come. Im feeling engine is little more louder than GS's other competitors. On slope the bike "actually glides"... but on ascending road, roughness is bit disappointing. But I think this is normal with every bike. Its just my mind playing games... Under 5k rpm at 50-55 kmph its avaragely smooth. Im satisfied. Still too far from 1st service, I think I shd not even look a bit beyond 5k rpm. Rest other things are perfectly fine.

Hi mathew,
what low mileage u got i afraid i too got low mileage,after filling full tank my bike fuel gauge show me 3 dots after 475km,i did test reserve to reserve thrice that time one time 50km other time 44kmpl,show room guy told me to check average by filling 4 to 5 litre after reserve then again fill 4 to 5 litre....My bike so far completed run in period 1600(1675km on odo).....
I drive gentlely once touched 80kmph to test riding sound for few minutes only..........if there is mileage problem what has to do carberator tuning or value adjustment(tappet adustment)...?
