Yep servicing done and complete, and I must say (may be it was the first service) I had no problem in explaining things, narrating issues and service person there was patient enough to listen......however I could not witness the service as there were few other bikes in queue. But I was very satisfiled. In the end the dealer made sure that all the listed checks have been done and my few complaines were adequately met.........The engine sound definately sounds more refined than prior to the service.......

Today I will probably pull the bike beyond 70 for the first time......

can we know what issues u were having with the bike ?
if possible try to achieve 3 digits on speedo.. I did 102 when I was test riding... see if u can achieve it in 4th gear or else 5th.
I mean only if u want... bcos I know as a new bike u would not like to stretch her legs so early, but since the 1st servicing is done I think u may try this out... and see if the engine really remains smooth, vibes free on high rpms...

There is a world of difference in the way the Efi system and the carbs work.In carb'ed bikes the CDI alters the ignition timing and nothing more.A ECU is far more advanced and has host of features which help in better combustion!!

ok Guys before I say anything let me tell you today for the first time I crossed over 70 on my bike and I have to sa just one word .......AWSOME.....fuc*n AESOME.......this bike is a pleasure......it cruzes man....just simply cruzes at 80-85...... impeccable smoothness absolute eloquence...........when I crossed 70 I felt the usuall "mmmmmm"(as I was driving at meak 60-65 the entire 15 days ) and I was fearing that mmmmm would increase to vibrations at high speed ....but but but to my pleasure the mmmm practically vanished at 80 and at 85 it was zipping like ice skate board.......no vibrations at all.........by no I do not mean 0 (practically not possible) but far far less than ANY current bike on indian road............... ok I speeded more and easily reached 90......and still no change in engine sound or any sign of engine fatigue or harshness.......bit more throttle and we have 95 on board.......what next.....sorry guys was crossing 7000 rpm and that was the limit till my second service.... .....I guess I have to wait for that 3 figure mark......but any way found the sweet spot of my bike 85 kmph which is in no means slow..... but still the bike glides effortlessly at this mark........today was a driving pleasure for me.........I seriously recomend this bike for the ones who look for shear ride smoothness and comfort specially at high speeds

hey small issues.......like I felt brakes should be more effective.......adjustment of handle bar as per my convenience, headlight adjustment.....etc thats all.........locking is different I mean when you lock and turn the key you have to slightly ....very slightly push the handle for the locking to click.....that was strange for me and I was afraid if that might be a fault.....but to my relief it turned out that ever GSR was made this way....I dont know why.........
but all the concerns were taken care of......main were the brakes which were adjusted to my satisfaction........

AFA crossing 100 is concerned...first I cant cross 7000 rpm untill second service so cant touch 100..........second touching 100 on 5th would not be advisable anyhow as the engine rpm would go very high. If you ask me 75 is the max you should pull on 5th.

Yes all that is true never denied this fact. EFI is definately better.....my point was "Fule mapping" does not only happen in engines that have EFI, it happenes in non EFI engines as well.

So, now you can know your wheelie speed too! (thought contribution - Satish)

Man, the RTR is real fun. BTW, Satish dropped the R15 idea after passing through the 1 KM long traffic jam.
@kp

uncle....look at our happy faces in the tacho. and it easier to hit the topend in gs150 too.......just put it in main stand and rip the bike in top gear....and we have the best 0-60/0-100 and best 1/4 mile timings in india


Seriously i was so pissed riding the r15 in begumpet, punjagutta and somajiguda traffic

i have'nt completly dropped my idea of the R15....it just at the back of the list as of now. I rode my RTR after almost two months and i enjoyed every bit of t......rode kriss p20 yesterday and i did'nt like it one bit......i just realised how much i love RTR's

so may be RTR 180 is what a waiting for!

dunno man, but Overview on website says FZ has fuel mapping and if u download PDF's for them both you will get more detail, and yes R15 is Fi as per that product manual.

Dude, you are mixing ignition timings and fuel mapping.Both are seperate things!!

For me, the RTR is fine but the RTR-Fi is nothing sort of a hooligan.It simply blows you away with the acoustics and the relentless pull it gives when given the stick.

I think GS150R definitely leads the pack in the 150cc segment when it comes to performance.Can't wait to have a test ride of the bike.Also has anybody noticed an aluminium cover on the top of the engine which is used to subside vibrations.The showroom guys said some counter-vibration thingy, couldn't remember!!
