BigBore · 10-31-2009, 01:23 AM

Hello Everybody,
I am a new member of xBhp. I was introduced to xBhp by my good friend Ameya Gandhe (Ameyashogun). After going through xBhp i felt it is very informative and full of passionate bike lover's. This is my first thread about my Suzuki Shogun that i recently rebuilt after 15 years. I have tried my level best to restore it to its stock condition

Please do give me your reviews and advices about the work done on it.
Thank you!

I am getting a mileage of 37kmpl and the total cost of restoring it was around Rs.23,000.

Glad you liked it, thanks! I prefer the pulsar gas shocks as they are very comfortable for my everyday commuting. I didnt get the original indicators for shogun. Lastly, the handle is of the shogun itself on which i got a bar welded & repainted.

Its a 1994 model originally silver in color. I live in Chembur, Mumbai. Which part of Mumbai are you from? Those 2 Yamaha's are also mine, i am going to post pictures of them soon as i have got them restored and modified.

i ve used pulsar gas shocks too but i feel stock gabriel shocks are better coz it doesnt affect the handling unlike the gas shocks which are meant for a heavier bike

Are u using oil pump or premix ??
