I'm new to xbhp forum. I have a suzuki GS 150R, 7 years old and has done about 45000 kms. Lately my engine is making some ticking noise and also other noises, if i go at higher speed (60-70 kmph). But I have not observed any visible exhaust smoke. Also my engine oil levels drop about 200ml for every 1000kms. Noise problems are more observed after 10 to 15 mins of riding. I had visited ASSC (Shiv suzuki, Nigdi) pertaining to this issue, they told me that it would cost about 18 to 20k to do anything related to engine and once if they open the engine, all major parts in the engine will be replaced, irrespective of the problem whether it is needed or not. But I'm suspecting only exhaust valve overheating or blown piston rings. I have following questions regarding this.
1. Please suggest me some good mechanic/SC in pune (i stay at nigdi, pimpri-chinchwad area, recently shifted from Bangalore) for this issue.
2. Can I get my complete engine replaced with a new suzuki GS150R engine....? what is the approximate cost of the engine..?
3. Can there be any other issues other that valve over heating, blown piston ring.....?.
Thank you guys
