Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155
You need to understand the fact that, its a carb bike and it will not start at one go, especially if its very cold. Replacing things isn't going to work magic. This is one disadvantage of a carburetor. If there is any problem with switch use wd40 or tune the RPM thing near carb by a trusted svc. I am not discouraging you from claiming warranty on anything, but every carb bike has cold start issue. So take a chill pill and its not a heart breaking thing.Originally posted by benryu View PostAgain had the issue with self start. Doesn't work for a day after bike is drenched in the rain.

Answer -when the manual insists.
How do we figure it out ?
Answer - you have periodic services, as far as normal bikes are concerned, at every service oil and oil filter ia changed.
What engine oil is suggested mostly MOTUL but I need your suggestion based on your experience...
Answer - AFAIK, suzuki suggests motul oil and I dont see any superior oil other than motul for gixxer. If you think something else is superior,go ahead share your experience.
What grade should be use 10w40 or 15w40 or ?
Answer - refer owner manual
What kind of engine oil needs to be used synthetic?
Answer - owner manual
Does engine oil color matters ?
Answer- NO
Thanks in Advance

Did you read the bible(owner's manual) before asking such questions.
Please do your homework rather than bluntly asking for spoon feeding.
If you had read the gixxer ownership thread,you would have got all your answers.

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155
I think its not cold starting issue, its electronic problem with switch... Cold start is something different!!Originally posted by sanjaysangar1990 View PostYou need to understand the fact that, its a carb bike and it will not start at one go, especially if its very cold.

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155
If the engine doesn't even try to start with one crank of self start then its electric problem.Originally posted by Rahul N View PostI think its not cold starting issue, its electronic problem with switch... Cold start is something different!!
If it starts but then stops n couple of second than cold start problem.
Frankly speaking modern gen carbs don't face the problem anymore

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155
Bro you dont seem to understand the issue. There is no response when i use self start for a day. If it responds then i can understand this cold engine stuff etc.Originally posted by sanjaysangar1990 View PostYou need to understand the fact that, its a carb bike and it will not start at one go, especially if its very cold.

I always kick start bike in the morning. But after rain electric start has no response. Not a single sound also. Showed at SVC too and he said has to check wiring and stuff. But bike would start with a single kick at such time.
