    Was just inspecting my bike today when I noticed this hole...seems like an outlet?


    Us this there on all gixxers , or is it covered by a nut/bolt.

    Iam guessing it's an outlet to drain excess water or remove dirt/grime. Please do check and let me know
    This hole is on Which side and Which position

      Oh man my A$$ is paining. Gixxer has very hard seat. Any remedy for this?


      PS: Not for pain, need good seating comfort.

        Maybe you can try getting the seat padding increased. Go to a shop which works on bike seats and ask them. They will most probably add some foam and a thicker seat cover.

        OT - btw the pics you uploaded in the last post are not visible. Pls re upload

          Right hand side, behind the brake lever.
          I just checked another gixxer parked nearby. Seems like all our bikes share. Must be an outlet hole.

                    May be SVC guys would have tuned the carb for fuel efficiency, for chain noise whether they cleaned and lubed the chain check in ur bill.

I consulted the service guys, they suggested to apply a coat of diesel every week to get the shine - However I don't want to do that ..

                      You can use Waxpol silicone liquid polish on all plastics . It cleans too . Apply , let dry and buff with clean cloth . If residue of previous waxy polishes are remaining clean up with kerosene & cloth and then dilute detergent wash . Service center wasn't too far with their diesel suggestion
                      Dashboard polish not only gives wet look , it's oily and more dust sticks on after use . I've thrown mine away , it's useless for bikes I think . Tire shine leaves patchy black finish , tried that too

                            no, they not tuned the carb, chain is lubed and cleaned just bike is not smooth as before first service.

                              How u now they haven't tuned ur carb?
                              I guess in every service they ll check ur carb and adjust.
                              Which oil they changed & what is the cost of the oil in bill?
