Smile Welcome

Welcome to Gspian community Mihir. The 2010 GS differ only in color scheme and graphics. The RR unit has been replaced with new CA series to earlier BA series. Though no changes are done to engine specs, those who test drove 2010 model reported improved engine refinement.

Why going for all orange scheme? All orange one is earlier model, 2010 model comes only in orange and black dual tone.

No technical change other than Rectifier & Regulator unit and battery. All others are same.

yup not much upgrades but some earlier issues have been solved but i have driven both 2009 and 10 model the 2010 model had better refinement a notch up.

On color side yeah even i liked the 09 model for that fact though haven't seen the dual tone though have ridden the 2010 model black color on test ride.

The only change is RR Unit,Silencer cover that's all.I will still say if i could get the 2010 model with full colors would have been gr8.

According to my understanding, it is not necessary for any company to disclose the changes made in their products...

The company listens silently to the customer feedbacks (through e-mails, service camps, sc guys etc...) and further make improvements.

The actual fact is that if they reveal all their R n D details to the public, their will be a lot of panic among older customers... And they pounce back for replacement of spares..

Example:- Since the RR unit change was clearly understood, customers (including myself) wanted to get it replaced

If the company tells that old engine is crappy and has lot of issues, Why??; I myself will pounce back upon them for replacement

The engine may be redefined, but the details r disclosed even to the dealers and SC people...

So, new Batch is always the best choice

hi bro no precess,no modification just replace existing bulb, i don't know whats avail in ur city, even me purchased this 2 years back in chennai for my pulsar,while selling the pulsar removed the bulb and replaced in MY GS but not immidiate after 2 service i don't remember...its direct fit AC/DC type brand unknown(chinese) cost is 100 where i bought 2 years back,now one of the bulb gone , so i buy a pair here in local for Rs 140 but its have different look(see old thread i posted pic),but the mech told me a rubber pad in screws(visor) needed to replace the LED otherwise its not possible to fit the visor due to screw will not fit due to rubber washer..its pure luck how long it will last.switch on ur headlight while in idling itself, otherwise while riding fastly if u switch on due to high current there is possible ur LED will fuse. So my bike glow only one LED waiting for rubberlike washer to replace LED
