Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

The engine guard is fused to the Full Fairing!..It's not separate...If you need the engine guard you need to cut it and fix it in the Gixxer!

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

awesome! MSL 5500. I just did MSL 1500 recently. Could you write in detail about this trip experience and how the Gixxer behaved? Did you carry a pillion or any luggage?

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

Hi rahul

I've also got low mileage & very poor than you. I got only 30 kmpl till 650 kms. But now it has increased to 40-45 kmpl. Visit ur scv & check emission & don't suggest them to tune carburetor. Bcoz factory setting is the best till 1000 kms on the odo. Also change the petrol pump to shell. Do check ur spark plug color. Low mileage is purely bcoz of petrol pumps & cheating in quantity. My suggestion is buy petrol in 1 litre bisleri bottle & fill it in exact reserve then check.

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

Could you please provide a link to an article or video from this press conference?

Thanks!

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

Don't be worried bro.
Your bike is just breakin period and we all did got the same or less mileage than you.
Your mileage will start to increase after 1500 or 2000 kms when all the engine components got set in.

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

Hello Gentlemen!
Just joined the forum, as I'm about to buy my first new bike (Have a fair amount of riding experience, but have always had only the hand-me-downs of older cousins and siblings.)
My heart is set on the Gixxer, with just one qualm - the service network of suzuki in Delhi. Can any fellow member from Delhi give me pointers in that direction?
I took my test ride at Bittoo Suzuki, Lajpat Nagar, and the attitude of the personnel was quite frankly, disappointing. There was another fellow, out to buy a GSXR-1300, the same time as me, and the sales person indirectly refered to him a good few times to make us feel like small fish. Do you know a dealer who treats poorer customers better? How about the After sale experience in Delhi so far?

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

Anybody bought bike cover online? Should I buy one?If so post link please...

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

Sorry to hear that man. Can't speak for Delhi, but here in bangalore, at least my dealer was courteous and eager to show the bike to me, like its his pride and joy. In fact had to test on 2 separate occasions.
Only thing I can say is visit as many diff. dealers as you can and settle on o e you like.
Also break your head over a.s.s(after sales service). This is a make or break product for suzuki,. Hence a serious directive to all dealers to do a good job. I have had 0 issues..but even the people here who have had got it re placed instantly
Gosh...what a wall of text. Bottom line....just get the bike eyes closed...you won't regret it![emoji2]

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

As has been discussed before...this is a purely subjective area.
Blue is unanimous decision of best looker.
After that I find myself leaning towards the black then red.
Personally I find the white too high contrast, and feel the lines of the bike get washed out. So..
Its your call bro..

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

Purely subjective. Mine is blue. But given a choice between red and white, i would suggest white...its distinct.

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

[MENTION=71118]raintree[/MENTION]: Sure
We started from Kochi at 6:45 am. My friend on RE Thunderbird 350 and me on my Suzuki Gixxer 155. We covered 210 kms approx (i.e., total 420 kms up and down). No pillion and no luggage.

About 100kms into the trip, the high ranges started. Though i had doubts, once the incline started, the tone and tenor of the bike changed and it was just gulping the hills...open the throttle and the bike leaps up.

Instead of sitting upright, one can slightly slide back and lean forward. (The seat is so designed that its like a bucket seat) The bike would surge forward and the 'push' is felt on the butts...

Climbing the hills has never been so easy. The tyres have more than sufficient grip and i have never felt more confident. By the time i reached 5500 MSL, the exhaust note of the bike changed to a muffled grunt...sweet!! It was as if the bike was craving for more...

I was riding mostly on 3rd and 4th gears...occasionally came down to 2nd...but the bike never felt under-powered.

Descenting the hills was the highlight of the trip. Descented mostly on 4th gear...the bike was precise at the bends and curves. Used both the front and back for breaking...there was a chiseling sound coming from the front disc, but went away after a few hard breakings.

Handling the bike was the best part. There are no vibrations felt on the handlebars. Rock solid..:thumbup: It doesn't tire you.

I just leaned forward on the tank and let the bike roll down the hill... It was truly awesome.

The trip meter was very helpful, knew exactly how much the bike returned. Tried reserve to reserve method - the bike returned 53 kms/ltr approx.

The bike had completed 2nd service, but still I maintained the rpm below 4k and speed between 50-55. (Hence the mileage)

The only flip slide is the dirt splash from the front tyre. The dirt splashes on to the engine and also makes your boots dirty. Need to find a solution without affecting the looks.
Secondly, i wished the headlight could have been a bit brighter.

Hope this helps you...
