Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

Which is the best looking colour on Gixxer? I liked the blue. But does it look bit gaudy?

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

you got 39kmpl, I got only 37kmpl and was frustated. Its only after 2000kms my mileage is being consistent at 46~47kmpl.
Also after reduction in petrol prices most petrol bunks in my place started cheating. Check that too.. I once filled Rs.50 petrol for testing and I got 14kms for 0.75liters(pump reading).
I am bringing up this question again to all owners: - what is the difference between city mileage and highway mileage, because I see no difference at all and even 1 or 2 kms less than city riding. Totally confused.

I questioned myself the same, but purchased Blue only and there are no regrets.
Don't choose Grey at allllll. I saw a grey colored Gixxer which was covered with dust and oh my god that was an instant Turn-off.

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

One & only blue
Black & grey comes next.

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

Will the service center people accept our own oil instead of their recommended oil?
I just purchased Elf MOTO4 Tech 10w50 and planning to go for second service tomorrow.

This is free.........................................Perfu me and Engine Oil?????????

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

Some svc accepts and some other rejects and says your warrenty will be void bla bla bla... But considering the grade you have chosen while suzuki recomended grade is 10w40 i doubt if they willing to do it... In my opinion don't try other grade oil. untill the engine is properly settled in. Also fs oils are not recomended for run in period. After some 6000 kms you can try this by a local mech or by your self.

A thicker oil will reduce acceleration and fuel economy a little.

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

Please read the owners manual for the recommended grade.

With increasing daytime temperatures in my area my Engine is heating up pretty quickly even with a 10km riding and the bike is emanating paint smell(which did not happen in winter).
That is why I chose 10w50.

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

Ohh.. It's my mistake so you can use 10w50 too.. But during engine run-in avoid using a fully synthetic oil. Better keep it for changes after 6 k.

Btw i don't have a gixxer with me. I own a cbz xtreme.

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

Completed 900 kms on my Gixxer. First service was done at 700 kms. The gearshifts have really settled down now- now the 'box is effortless yet feels precise to operate. I am revving it to 6500 rpm now- up from 4500 rpm before the first service.
The bike has been ridden through heavy rain for 2 consecutive days. When I started it today morning, the electric starter wouldn't respond for the first couple of times. I kick-started it(it started at the first attempt), then switched it off and tried with the thumb starter again. The bike started this time and the starter worked faultlessly through the rest of the day- it was used on numerous occasions as I rode nearly a 100 kms today. I guess the slight malfunction was down to the starter coil getting wet due to tons of splashed water. Will have to observe this over a longer period, although I'm nearly certain it was a one-off thing.
On another note, it is frustrating as hell to spend an hour washing the bike every morning for 3 consecutive days, only to have it muddied the very same evening! I don't know what I will do in the monsoons.

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

It is not a one time thing atleast for me. The problem resurfaced after a long time and the malfunction happened atleast 3 times in a 2 day period. It was really embarrassing when I couldn't start the engine when the traffic signal went green from red and people honking behind me.

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

When was this? Did it recur after the 2 days? If yes, what steps did you take?

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

In my opinion,200NS is a cheap piece of metal with a motor. People have a problem with the Duke 200s exhaust note.Just wait until you hear the 200NS's exhaust note...oh wait,there is NO exhaust note,its the chain rattling that you hear!!!

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

Completed 2360 kms, yesterday went to sv to increase throttle response. He set normal idle rpm to 1.5k rpm but when driving idle rpm was reaching 2.5k + so I myself set idle rpm on 1k and now my bike feels super smooth and gear shift is butter smooth.

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

Guys is there any problem in driving Gixxer about 130km before the first service ? Because I have to goto my native for registration process. I don't want to register it in the current city I am living right now. Is there anything to take care during the trip ? Or not at all recommended ? Pelase advice.

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

No problem. Just keep the rpm's that are recommended in the manual and don't ride at constant rpm/speed for long. Keep varying. And if you like, take rest of 10-15 mins after 70kms.
