Wasn't it suppose to move when the clutch is released.
    For the wheel spinning: Check if your choke is completely off (my rear wheel used to spin because the choke switch was 1/6th of the position towards on, switching it all the way off solved the wheel spinning thing for me temporarily).
    If it is off then maybe your clutch isn't tight enough? I too have recently noticed the wheel spinning and a little playing around with the clucth play adjustment solved it!

        Service manual has the directions I guess. Its a metal tube that holds the clutch wire, right next to the engine with a nut for adjustment.
        However how does the slight wheel movement affect the bike? Since it even goes away once the engine is warm :/

          It doesn't affect at all..just want to know why it popped out after an oil change and one more thing I forgot to say is that the clutch feels tight after the service.

            My ownership review of the Suzuki Gixxer :

            Make : Suzuki Model : Gixxer 155 Version : Naked Date of purchase : 13th April, 2016. Current odometer reading : 7200 kms.  Fuel efficiency : 45 km/l.  2015, a lazy summer afternoon. I wa…


            Took almost a month of writing, shooting and procrastinating to write it.

            Getting an irritating kat-kat sound from the front end over uneven surfaces. The frequency is very high! Any idea what it might be?

              Can you sit on top of the bikehold the front brake and press up and down the handlebar to compress and decompress the fork..check if the sound comes when doing this way.

Someone posted pics of fog light in this group sometime back. I am using philips xtree vision plus for a long time. No issues. At times I even light up upper and dipper at once for xtra illumination

                I have kept the stock light as it is. Just Installed a projector LED fog light on top of the left leg guard focusing Middle-Leftish (Cost around 1000 bucks including fittings). The thing is so bright that it floods the left side with white light. Scared to use another one on the right side because that will surely make the oncoming vehicles blind. Problem solved.

                  No sound from the suspension whatsoever. It's on the rattling side, I guess a part has become loose in the front end. Wondering what it might be. Can't even take it to the authorized SVC here, because it sucks big time.

                    If you are sure there is excess oil, then it is better to remove it.
                    I believe slight rotation of the wheel with clutch fully depressed is okay. May be you can check if the clutch setting is correct.

                      Removed the excess oil..by loosening the oil filter cap..bad job done by the SVC..was to lazy to loosen the drain bolt..the svc overfilled it big time.now eveythings fine.

                        Can someone point out the rubber thing in the pic?
                        Even I'm facing noise from the engine!

                          Its at the tip of that silver metal thing in the centre of the pic, when the bike is on idle some air comes out of it making a sound.

                            Hey Guys, Should i purchase a Steelbird Air Helmet (Black) as it is available offline for Rs.1300?
                            I feel the fit is comfortable and ventilation is good too.
                            Any other suggestions?
                            Thanks In Advance.

                                That is a cam chain\timing chain tensioner.
                                Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handlebars to the saddle.
