Didnt suzuki get a better name than this ?? In AP it doesnt sell out much bcos of the name.

The name GSR150 sounds fantastic.. But the later part... LANZA... it doesnt suit here in the local language. It has a total different meaning.

The Word LANZA is almost as close to a Slang in telugu language. IT means Prostitute.... Lets see how many of them buy it here.

PS: views above are purely mine

Sorry Aryan, I think everyone got carried away. Coming back to the topic, the GSR-150 is a bit heavy in the specs given by thunder. Almost par with a P220/ZMA and heavier than a P200. I don't see anything that can adding the weight so much...are you sure it is 149 kgs?

Here is the official press-release from the Suzuki website:

Welcome to Suzuki Motors India: Suzuki Launches all-new GS150R

I did not find Lanza written anywhere on bike, I think it will be called only GS150R in India.

'In addition, the bike has a Majestic Fuel Tank bringing high user satisfaction with the impression of being ‘stronger’. The shock absorber has a separate oil reservoir, which facilitates oil cooling effectively, thereby, ensuring growth in its performance. Its Engine Balancer Technology, equipped with ‘balancer driven gear fitted with a rubber damper’, further delivers a more comfortable riding experience to the bike enthusiasts.'

Xbhpians, if you went through the Suzuki press-release....

you are kidding me right? Some points here:

1) Impression of being stronger? So.... that means it really isn't??

2) The shock absorber has a OIL RESERVOIR??? And it helps in ENGINE COOLING

?

3) Majestic Fuel Tank ?? Majestic in caps....

According to Economic Times:

"The company entered the competitive 150cc premium bike segment with the launch of GS 150R at Rs 59,000 (ex-showroom Delhi). Suzuki’s new bike, which will be available in the market only by January,"

very nicely priced then. I expect this to eat a slice of Bajaj's already reducing portion in the 150cc pie.

This 2 power mode, just hope it is the Real Deal ...

If Real, it will give more torque per rpm in the "Economy Mode" but less hp's ...

If that works out, this should replace Unicorn for touring at least ...
