Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

Mileage update: Tested twice recently.
46kmpl on riding at speeds above 80 at highways and frequent accelerations and breaking at city riding.
Desperate to test at speeds of 60, similar to what I had done during run in but can't stop the wrist :banghead:

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

I am still getting 32-33kmpl and i ride like you.

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

That's really low. Few things that I am NOT doing yet but used to do with my earlier pulsar 150 (still used to give 40kmpl) are:
Rev till almost max before upshift.
Downshift after every break to get pick up.

Suggest you to control the temptation for two days just for sake of testing the mileage. Ride as gentle as you can and check the mileage. This would give you better picture if the mileage is low because of riding style or if bike really needs service.

Am sure you would have reported such mileage to service centre by now, if not, please do and get them do the mileage test after service.

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

There is nothing called a 2015 version! If you are asking about bikes made in January 2015, it is too soon to expect that in dealerships across the country now as we have just completed 3 days in January.

5 days ago I checked with a dealer and he had stocks from end of November and mid December. So Janaury made bikes should arrive in dealerships somewhere by end of January or first week of February depending on how quickly they sell out of existing stocks.

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

While this is your honest opinion you should also consider the level of your riding. Indeed gixxer was released for everyone to ride and not all can ride a 200ns or a duke. And regarding the turning angle, it isn't as worse as you say or as your honest opinion is considered. It'll be a pain only if you stop and turn at a 'U' turn. Even then it wouldn't be as worse as you describe hitting the footpath. Trust me, it solely depends on the rider's skill and I have even seen people turning it in very tight places where usually cycles are the best. From the middle of the road you do not 'steer' the bike into 'U' turns. With a proper speed you slightly lean it by applying pressure on the handle bar which comes with time and experience. It is definitely not a mess. The bumps on the road on your wrists 'maybe' an issue with that specific bike. Other than that, this bike offers great feedback of what's on the road and obviously riders who are skillfully grown will like that kind of a setup. That one brother, is for pure enthusiasts. And as human psychology goes, once you set your heart and mind on a product, you would feel its the ultimate heaven.

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

Guys,

How does the bike perform during corners?? Is the bike stable beyond 100kmph? Need your suggestions since one of my friend is planning to buy within next week.

Regards,
Nikhil

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

Great pics man loving blue gixxer more after watching your pics.

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

It's good to hear that you've booked a great bike. Pramaan suzuki is a good dealer but I would say you could ve stopped at nandanam and gone right into ABT suzuki which is a far better dealership! :P they offer very less waiting period even for the most demanded blue color! and SMK suzuki at porur gives you in 2 days which my friend bought from! Anyway the showroom looks stacked up everyday with every color of gixxer at the display! Did you mean the inner ring road by saying velachery to mount road? I think that is not a highway. Anyway don't worry this bike will perform good on all Chennai roads if ridden properly! Congrats!

It's so cool and composed. For both your queries.

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

In what ways do you think ABT Suzuki is better than Pramaan Suzuki? I have test driven the Gixxer from Pramaan but I am inclined more to purchase the Gixxer from ABT since a couple of years ago we took our Swift Dzire from them and the overall experience was good. It would be good if you can pass on some contacts if you have any in the bikes section of ABT.

BTW, he is talking about the road connecting GST to Velachery, running parallel to most of the overhead MRTS tracks. A good road to test drive this beauty

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

Oh yeah thats the road I meant. I live close by and the road has superb terrain with a subway, cement road and some gravel surface to ride bikes with ad-rush! Anyway that isn't a highway either :P I am telling you because I was about to book gixxer as my first ride and got a test ride from ABT. Their customer care is better than pramaan which I visited too. Forget about the car dealearship. They are also pioneer since the time suzuki was launched in India as tvs-suzuki. My friend got a swish and they're treating him very well even if he goes to to ask for something very basic and that doesn't need the SVC too! The one in adayar where my friend rushed for emergency asked him to wait for a whole day. Also the showroom is brimming with customers since tvs-suzuki days and from that you can sense the loyalty of the customers there. But do try SMK suzuki at porur. They're growing very well.

I'll suggest this. Since the sales is soaring do call them up and ask over phone first for the availability of the color and waiting period before you visit. ABT gave me 2 weeks' time in November.

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

Hi guys I have been following this thread before and after buying my black beast gixy. I just have few things to share about extra fittings..firstly never opt for an handle grip it's stiff like stone I had it removed the next day itself. And secondly seatcover it just takes the riding comfort away for the rider. (also for pillion) it has this some kind of plastic thread at both sides right where we sit.and no one likes a seat cover which has names of shop and address over it.haha a mistake..... And I think I am getting mileage of approx 50.. And sound this beast produces its awesome... Couldn't go out at night I could barely see the road😞. And side indicator switch is really a down point it just doesn't suit my beast. Horn is not aggressive. Lot of changes to be brought. Need to think of putting some cushions for pillion.

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

Kindly refer a Couple pages back...there is a pretty large section devoted to high speed performance of this bike...both in wet and dry conditions.

Awesome pics bro!

Btw, which area of hyd is that? Gachibowli, seems like it?

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

Well,as far as riding experience is concerned,does clocking over 2500kms on a CB250R in one month count as enough experience to ride/handle the 200NS? Lol. Anyways,to each his opinion.

Anyone knows how to get rid of the rear mudguard,since one will also lose the side indicators? Any way to remove the mudguard but keep the indicators? Maybe LED strip replacements?
