Also, never leave the bike idle on choke.
    i will try it.. thanks for improving my knowledge.[emoji106]

    The owner's manual will tell you what are the rpm limits for the first 800 and next 800 kms.

    Where can I find/source aftermarket sprocket/chain kit for Gixxer 155?
    As the stock rear have 45 teeth, I am looking for 46 or more for better top end for highway use.

    TIA
    I think you should be going for small rear sprocket for better top end. Bigger rear sprocket reduces top speed and increases acceleration.

    Hello everyone, yesterday I bought the chain-sprocket kit for the Gixxer just as an extra backup spare. I'm posting this for your reference.

    Gixxer and Gixxer SF share the same chain-sprocket kit. Actually, there is no kit for the Gixxer as the three components come seperately.

    Chain Assembly -> ( Part. No 27600-30H40-132 ) ( Rs. 576 ) ( R428, Non O-Ring, 132 Links )

    Drive Sprocket -> ( Part. No 27511-30H10-000 ) ( Rs. 311 ) ( aka Front/Engine Sprocket ) ( 15 Teeth )

    Driven Sprocket -> ( Part. No 64511-34J10-000 ) ( Rs. 399 ) ( aka Rear Sprocket ) ( 45 Teeth )

    Total Cost -> Rs. 1286/-.


    This is a cheaper alternative to the front sprocket from Bajaj which costs 93 instead of 311 for the stock Suzuki.



    Cheers!

    This thread should help. According to this thread, 4Ah also is a direct fit to the battery cage of the Gixxer 155 and helps provide good voltage.

    Don't go for OSRAM 35/35 Silverstar, they don't last long, plus are Made in China. Get yourself the Philips Blue Vision they are decent and have slightly higher beam throw.
