  • Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

    Iam facing an Issue today , while riding if I accelerate more than 50-60 km/h the bike tends to loose power felt like it will switch off but behave normally of I reduce the accelerator . I feel there is an issue with my carb due to fuel blockage .

      Check for any blockage near the suction port.
      The real beauty lies in throttle's twist!!

      Headlight can be replaced, Head cannot be. Wear a helmet.

        Hey,

        Did anyone try long highway trips on your gixxer? How does the engine feel to cruise at 90kmph - 100kmph speeds on highways? any wind blast experienced? How's is the stability on highways and sandy roads?

        Thanks

          Its quite natural. Bcoz of new engine, tyre etc. Mileage will come in poor figures in the initial kms. Don't drive beyond 4.5k rpm. Check for any black smoke from exhaust with bit hard rev in neutral. Also check reserve to reserve method for exact 1 litre of petrol.
          Just follow my shadow.

            Did the bike not accelerate past 75kmph/5500RPM? This was the issue I faced when I purchased and I asked for Carb replacement which the service center did. In neutral RPM touched 10K but while riding it didn't go past 5500.

            Not really long trips..you can cruise at 85kmph without feling any stress on the engine. Past 85kmph the engine vibrates a little until 95kmph(Rear View Mirror becomes unclear).
            Stability issues mainly depends on the ROAD Tarmac. But no stability issues until 105kmph. On sandy roads(esp sand on cement roads) stability becomes independent of speed.
            yes there is windblast.
            Anyone noticed Mileage at highspeeds? I am getting 39kmpl at 70~90kmph and 33kmpl at 100~115kmph.
            Also my city mileage is 46+ but my highway mileage never exceeded 47~48kmpl.
            I've already asked this question, Please reply. Thank you.

              I've not tried in my gixxer but 2 weeks back I've been to Pondicherry on my friend's gixxer. Its simply superb. With pillion we reached max 108 kmph. Drive was pleasant, no body pain at all. Even no vib @ high speeds. But bit uncomfortable in long journey for those who sit in pillion.

                  I wish to know the cruising ability at 90kmph to 100kmph without a pillion for quite long stretches when the roads open up. Also how is the stability cruising at such speeds when there are crosswinds? And due to upright riding position, does the windblast make it a bad experience?

                    My bike easily gives 50-55 mileage in city and on highway cruising at 70-110 kmph it gave 50 and driving till 80 kmph gave me 58 kmpl..

                      That will take you another 200-210 kms toughly.
                      Steady riding its possible.
                      Run in time I got ~45-46 kmpl..

                        This.
                        I still feel the steady cruising limit of the bike is at 80..although you can go easily past in short burst.
                        Been at 100 a couple times, and each time 80 was no issue. Its after that things become VERY SLIGHTLY unsteady.
                        Its the optimum speed to ride at I feel.

                          Didn't tried without pillion but engine doesn't look like sluggish below 90kmph but engine feel stressed above 90 kmph. U can easily pass through such crosswinds. Bike's main advantage is aerodynamic body & weight. Wind doesn't push u in side wards.

                            Its completely opposite in my case. It goes to neutral wen I try to shift from 1 to 2 or vice versa though vehicle ia running. Ideally it should not happen. Wherher someone knows what could be the pblm??

                              Since you tried that with pillion, I would take that alone it could feel more grunty doing 90 kmph speeds. I was blown away by the way it felt planted on road when I rode it, but it was in traffic and couldn't explore the bike's ability.

                                My bike does this when the engine oil needs tp be replaced. Check if engine oil is good..
