Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155
There is not a fixed position for afr screw in order to extract maximum mileage. Afr setting is different on each bikes because of the different altitude conditions in which they are running. Carb tuning requires both patience and skill. If you guys are not facing any major issues plz don't play with afr.Originally posted by radikel View PostOff the BOTTLE & On the THROTTLEComment

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155
Yes. About gixxer and all carbed bikes. I didn't meant stock setting is different. Said that each bike have its own afr setting to run properly with power and mileage. This depends on engine and altitude.Originally posted by Dynamo View PostOff the BOTTLE & On the THROTTLEComment

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155
What you say is true. But the stock setting is same across all gixxers in the country.Originally posted by Jith_in View Post
The AFR might need changes only once you start climbing more than a 1000m above sea level, as I think that is the first point air pressure drops by 1 BAR.Comment

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155
HI
Finished with the third servicing. bike has again become very smooth. filled the tyres with nitrogen too. took it for a ride on highway and was able to get top speed of 125kmph on a little slope. dont know it is nitrogen or servicing that increased top speed. earlier i got 118kmph. svc mechanic said with nitrogen gadi halki chalegi. u wll get better mileage too. so thot of giving it a try. changed the spark plug too as it was written in the manual.
learnt from SVC that suzuki has given motul chain cleaner and lube to all SVCs. it is funny that they here in ranchi did not know how to clean or lube the chain with spray. what the mechanic was doing was random and funny. had to teach him
also they said motul cleaning and lubing will cost u 90 bucks. but in raipur i got it for free. i even bought the same. bt kafi bahas karne ke baad they reduced the cost to 80. this is like making the customer a foolLast edited by ravik; 04-04-2015, 12:41 AM.Comment

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155
I have played with AFR setting little bit, but observed that even one full turn of the screw doesn't change the mileage much (1 or 2 kms). But it changes the way bike idles changes a lot.Originally posted by Dynamo View Post
When I was running lean, my bike was struggling to idle when cold, and RPM shot to 1600+ when hot.
Like Jith_in said, if your bike is running fine, then there is no point in fiddling with AFR. If you're unsure of AFR setting, you may take a look at the spark plug to see if AFR is lean/rich.
Also, mileage depends a lot on other factors too - use brakes whenever necessary, close the throttle way before a signal and let the bike slow down its own, don't accelerate quickly in lower gears, maintain proper tire pressure etc.
Also, please note that everyone may not be accurate in the way they calculate mileage. Don't get deceived by mileage figures claimed by others

The reason I was asking was, the SVC guys fiddled with it when I gave for service. And unfortunately I couldn't stay with my bike. How I know was that the bike became vibey,which so at all before.
I took it back to them to readjust it,and while its ok now, it just wasnt like how it was before. However, the bike idles perfectly almost soundlessly at a perfect 1k rpm...sooo.. Just wondering.
Yup iam not carried away by mileage figures, just thinking about the feel[emoji4]Comment

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155
Hi can any body give a clearer understanding on headlights. Have read through the earlier posts regarding changing of stock bulbs and have got confused. So went to google and understood there are halogen and Hid lights,Only understanding I got is Hid has xenon gas and a 35W Xenon bulb consumes less power than a 55W Halogen bulb.
Now please correct me whether our bike's stock bulb is halogen then can I shift to hid? If yes then I heard bulb type is H4.If so then will I get a direct fit of H4 35 w Hid bulb or I need some conversion kit?
By reading my earlier para one can make out I am actually confused
and yes I wanna change the bike's bulb to a safer and reasonable option. 55/60w was suggested before but I was told that its life is pretty short. Need a simple tutorial please

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155
I feel the rear brakes has very little bite. I couldn't lock the tyres even at 30kph. Is it normal? I've only clocked 200kms so far. Front brakes are fabulous though.#Gixxer

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155
Yes. Rear brakes are bit weak but you should use both the brakes whenever & wherever required. Also u should lubricate the brake points in regular intervals for better braking.Gixxer's rear brake is much better than FZ's.Originally posted by Habshan View PostJust follow my shadow.Comment

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155
Yeah, I do that all the time. I'm used to grabbing both the brakes and engine braking simultaneously. But the rear brakes are weaker than my previous bike. It had drums as well. Maybe it has to break-in. But I don't recall anything like this with my previous bike.Originally posted by Dynamo View Post
Do you recall the rear brake improving after clocking some kms?#Gixxer
