Is this normal ?

    2nd is engine really gets hot , I can't even touch it for more than 2 seconds Is this also normal for new bike ? I never ran the bike more than 4.5rpm @ 60-62Kmph

    I personally feel that black is more vulnerable to scratches and swirls . A slight swipe by hands are enough to make permanent swirl marks . I'm thinking to get a Teflon coat after first service but is it worth it
    I noticed SVC guys have put marks everywhere with blue and white paint .. engine , disk break , carb , suspension , everywhere ... and this thing put me in doubt that did they give me bike which is used for TEST DRIVE !!
    Marks are present even on my bike. I remember someone else saying they had them too. I guess it's normal.

      As far as I know, you needn't worry about the engine heat or vibrations till first service. If you're concerned about the vibrations, ride Duke or some other bike for a minute. Vibrations are negligible on gixxer compared to Duke or pulsar.

        After a long time i'm posting some pics of my gixxer.

        Initially i started with matt black with glitter for side covers. It is a single wrap without using any heat gun or hair dryer. Really a tough job & this almost consumed nearly 1 hr for wrapping the single side cover. As you can see the difference during night, normal day light & in hot sunClick image for larger version Name: IMG_20150814_133210.jpg Views: 1 Size: 112.0 KB ID: 1918766

        Today again i've done the same on my bike's visor. Looks cool. will post the pic soon.

        Very soon my whole bike will be wrapped with vinyl sticker. Bought the materials, instruments that are used for wrapping. I'm going to use transparent matt for white coloured plastic parts.

As far as I remember, the oil levels used to go down to the 'low' marker previously. I generally put it on double stand to view the levels. I tried to check the same on my friend's FZ V2.0. But his bike did not even have a window to view the oil levels. [emoji14]
          It would be very helpful if you guys could post some pictures showing the oil-level while engine is running.
          Thanks in advance.
          Try revving while looking at the oil level.

            Please explain me in detail about the wrapping sticker, what is it actually?

              It is actually a sticker sheet avbl in wholesale sticker shop. It is stretchable, washable, durable, scratch resistant. This is will prevent the paint dull & scratch.

              It is very cheap 1sq ft Rs. 30 only ( Matt black )
              Clear sticker 1sq ft. Rs. 10 only. Bought 4 sq ft of Matt black & 16 sq ft of clear sticker.

                Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155

                Hey guys.. while coming back home yesterday the bike got really jerky.. especially on low speeds.. like i was on a bad road or something but the road was totally fine.. stopped the bike to check for anything stuck on the tyres and found nothing.. rode it anyway and got home.. problem seems to have gone for now.. any ideas what caused it? air pressures were fine

                Also have this issue where during braking the bike tends to move to the right side for some reason.. nearly rammed into a stopped car due to it.

                And for some reason a pillion on board causes really bad handling at low speeds on this bike seem to be able to carry the same ppl on other bikes without any problems.. anyone else facing these issues?

                  I've following all the post
                  Few gixxerians have problems (pickup ,speed ..) when pillion is on board
                  Sometimes I too felt same when riding with pillion
                  Do we need to check with SVC?
                  Is it a common issue

                    Do you warm up the engine before using it after long hours of parking?
                    Try warming the engine up for 20-30 seconds before riding.
                    Check if choke is working as expected.

                    Check once more(hard braking) on empty highway(better road conditions).

                    Are those bikes heavier than Gixxer155?
                    Do those bikes have high pillion seat like Gixxer155?
                    Low kerb-weight coupled with high pillion seat will affect effective-CoG (Center of Gravity) during turns, leaning...

                    Change in Power-Weight ratio will affect the performance, esp pick-up(acceleration). Reaching speeds will be slow as acceleration will be low.
                    Try to keep RPMs close to 6,000(maxTorque RPM) in 3,4 & 5 gears. While riding try to keep the engine in torque band, say above 4,000 RPM.
                    Upshift when you're a close to 6,000 RPM & there is point in up-shifting after 6000 RPM for normal riding.

                      Didnt really warm the engine on that occasion.. Guess that could be the reason..

                      Will update on the braking issue once i get to test it out again.

                      The bikes ive ridden on without any problems with pillion on board are apache, passion and pulsar 150.. Maybe the high seat makes that big a difference

                        No not required. Actually this is not an issue. Move ur bike in correct gear. Additional info will be given if you explain clearly.

                          Just got a call from SMK Suzuki.... Apparently there is race again in irungattukotai on coming Sunday (6th September). They were asking if I am willing to come..... Anyone here got a call or coming on Sunday.

                          Note: think this is only for Gixxer and SF owners
