My bad lack i didn't get Gulf or Motul so i went with shell Advance fast trac which i will most probably change since not sure how good it is might even try Castrol power 1 If i get a genuine Pack.

@Mach that is not the case with me atleast my Engine RPM even when the engine is quite warm doesn't cross 1400 Ever.

@ Adi
your RPM is normal only no need to bother

Go for shell and don't use the castrol power one its waste.

This morning left my GS for 4th service
I believe slingshot alloy wheels aren't be good for GS as the wheel is having slimmer spokes
And you have to sacrifice front diskbreak for it


seen slingshot at showroom today on photos it looks such crap but if you see it directly looks good that's the only muscular bike with in 125 cc it seems
Even petrol tank is not like GS its different and muscular
Speedo looks decent.

Front view is like a naked street bike

Let me try a test drive tomorrow

@ adi
From where the sound comes from engine or silencer?

Just check it once after the oil change, Coz after changing to motul my engine is damn smooth and sound is cool.



With castrol (SVC) oil I would call the engine sound is like a roaring lion


If its engine akfara is our subject matter expert
If its somthing else we have our all rounded anup whozzz in break and will respond to you on pm.

@ Mihir

Even if the bike is fit its not good for a man to drive continually for 160 kms am sure you will take 15 mins break on ever 50 kms

That's enough for your GS to cool down say thanks to its jet cooling system

Don't drive in constant speed keep varriying up or down

Hope you already got all necessary stuffs for the long trip
+ extra tube
+ emergency puncture kit
+ dry fruits
+ snickers etc...

Main concern to ask this was, there is a ghat section in way n its very steep one..(Khambataki if anyone knows NH4)
