Anyway even if equipped in the bike, PCV ( positive crankcase ventilation ) valve is designed to deal with gases , not liquid oil . It ventilates excess gas pressure build-up in the crankcase from blow-by gas . Engine oil pressure is a different thing .

It does have it, I see in the parts manual it's being called Breather-Pipe. Well liquid displaces gases in any open container easily; closed chamber is different altogether.
Excess engine oil in the crankcase may
- absorb heat initially and struggle to dissipate later
- affect the efficiency of oil-pump

let me tag along then.

But what I have observed through many years of riding is that if you put too much oil anywhere in the bike , oil-seals start to weep oil after sometime and then they'll ask you to to replace the seals at service , which is a PITA .

I've seen engine-oil seeping through gaskets even in motorcycles with optimal oil-levels. Oil make, gasket health, and riding conditions may play a collective roll in that issue. Oil level may be of lesser one.

Also the internal volume of the crankcase is not exactly same for every bike even if of same make and model . The oil pump needs oil upto a certain level to work correctly so do the bearings . This why I put the emphasis on oil level rather than the volume .

Well the difference can't be that much for same make-model motorcycles. It is however rational to assume that oil-level close to High or Low recommended oil-levels have diminishing returns; and right in the middle is optimal. Again that's a reasonable assumption; i.e. perhaps 60% instead of 50% between oil-levels may be very optimal, but we don't know.

After 11k km the gear box still feel very stiff compared to Yamaha's and Honda's.

What should be duration of service..

Another thing is I usually get a mileage of not more than 36kmpl... Have reported to SVC and they did some testing..

Let me share my daily journey.
It's 5.6 km from my home to office and then back home in evening. The road is a high traffic area. What should be the ideal mileage.
As I also do some highway cruising.

36-38 kmpl is okay. I live in Gurgaon, too much clutch engaging during commute.

Hi guys, i'm planning on buying a new gixxer. The dealer quoted 95000 as the final on-road price without any additional accessories. Is this the right amount or are they charging extra? (i'm from trivandrum)

Ask for a price break down. I checked on Suzuki's site and they have mentioned a price 87,343 (inclusive of road tax). On-road for Madurai is Rs. 87,613 as per the website, and I got it for Rs. 89,570. The insurance cost me around 2k and I dint opt in for extended warranty.

16th of the last month. I don't think they would have increased the price all the sudden(in three weeks). And everything looks fine except the showroom price. In Madurai, it was around 76k-78k. Send a mail to Suzuki regarding this. By the way, did you check with other dealers? and it would be helpful if you share the name of the dealer who is quoting 95k.

Hey guys.. Gave my bike for 3rd service.. Just regular oil change and chain clean and lube.. Asked the manager for details on which oil was used and he showed me some Suzuki oil bottle.. On the back it had some castrol branding.. Thing is it was rated at 20w40.. Asked the manager about it and he was like this is the new oil recommended by Suzuki.
Now the problem is that I'm facing real performance issues as the bike doesn't want to accelerate anymore and even fully opening the throttle makes the revs rise up slowly and the engine feels like it's dying.. Is this due to the oil or is there any other problem with the bike?

Oil is Motul 10w40 I guess.

Hi, just took delivery of my dual tone gixxer. As i was riding home, i noticed a hissing sound near the engine. Its present when i twist the throttle even a little. When i leave the throttle, the sound disappears. Is this normal?
