Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155
No recall, nothing. I pointed out this at two SVCs. They rub it off. Then within few days, the rust comes back. Contacted suzuki via email. They asked me to take the bike to nearest svc for inspection. Again same procedure - rubbing off. Again after few days, rust reappeared.Originally posted by EthanReddington View Post
Then i tweeted the issue to [MENTION=24984]Suzuki[/MENTION]2wheelers; raised a complaint through website, and tweeted the complaint reference number. Later svc rang me up and asked me to send the photos, which i did. The service engineer later informed me that they cant do anything about it.
I am left stranded. Don't know what to do. Feeling ditched...

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155
That's the service center to be blamed.. They are ignoring orders i see.. Because suzuki officially announced the replacement.. It would be good if you showed them the newsOriginally posted by rev View PostNo recall, nothing. I pointed out this at two SVCs. They rub it off. Then within few days, the rust comes back.

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155
Not common. It's been one year since I'm owning Gixxer. No such problem with my GixxerOriginally posted by Saurabh213 View PostComment

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155
Try to get it replaced at another service center. Actually some service centres are worst in terms of customer service. So try other service centerOriginally posted by rev View PostNo recall, nothing. I pointed out this at two SVCs. They rub it off. Then within few days, the rust comes back.

I would say go to SVC and then change it.may cost you some money.SVC are hopeless when it comes to warranty claim .Originally posted by rev View PostNo recall, nothing.

Re: Suzuki Gixxer 155
Absolutely its the paint quality...reason for paint peeling off at that point of grab rail may be because of bike cover.Originally posted by srinath2494 View PostComment

From an assertive 'it's the bike cover' in the previous post to 'may be because of bike cover' now eh?
Haha check with other darker colors. I feel it could be the case for fewer pieces.
I can show you exceptions like this. The front suspension in my bike is matte black and it's the case for only a few others; perhaps they are of the same batch. Very hard to spot on road. Prolly one of you guys could have one too. Most gixxers have shiny-black front suspension. The shinier ones face paint peel-off easily even though they run on smooth roads without dirt. This is weird too in my view point haha.Last edited by srinath2494; 01-14-2016, 11:05 PM.Comment
