Hornet has not only bigger but heavier tyre, the chain gets loose very fast.
For 14nm torque that much heavy tyre means, more stress on the chain, because of that heavier tyre initial is low compared to Gixxer.

Thanks a lot guys, I'll ride both back to back to get overall feel.

What are the best 'Gixxer' variants/ colors as of now, I know looks are subjective thing, but still wanna know your preference and why that particular color.

@Sammi
If i where you,
I would get the white and blue and will change the rim color to the same blue, second opinion would be the Suzuki blue, that colour is just amazing to look at.

Everyone irrespective of the gender and age simply likes that colour.

Cheers.

So far i did same and bought gixxer naked sp, its your turn now

My brother and I were totally bowled over by the SP variant. To me the matte grey theme looks very subtle and stylish. It adds a premium aura to Gixxer, making it look like a expensive motorcycle from a segment above.
Cheers!

The SP Helmet looks very gorgeous and it perfectly sinks with the paint theme of Grey SP.
How much extra you had to pay, as the info I collected from Suzuki showroom guys, the price of the Jacket is 1700 and Helmet (SP) is 2200( MotoGp Blue Helmet - 2300),
Is the pricing correct? I mean the Helmet looks super awesome, I think its a better choice to go for this Helmet when someone is buying a Gixxer SP.
One more thing, any idea what brand is the helmet and which model's modification/ stickering work is that? Studds?

Guys, please solve my dilemma

I love the Blue Gixxer which was released as the first bike(without Rear Disc brake), currently Gixxer SP too looks very appealing to me,
One thing about the disc brake, I don't ride at high speeds, I'm 99.9% in the city roads, a long journey of 250 or 300+ kms journey would be too rare too.
In the city I would be riding mostly around 40-50kmph or 50-60kmph, I had a chat with a showroom dealer guy, he told me that you can choose the Blue Gixxer without
the Rear Disc brake, it would NOT add to the maintenance cost every time and replacing it is around 5-6 times less the cost of disc brake and the bike itself costs 4,500 - 5000 less than the SP(Dual disc).

So, my Question is

1. Do I really need a Dual disc variant? The whole purpose of very high speed BRAKING is itself merely absent for me and the cost factor too!!

2. Is it good to buy the very first bike(Blue) when latest ones like SP edition are out with Clear LED rear light. The Blue bike is taken off from the website and
according to some showroom dealers its manufacturing is stopped. But somehow I'm getting it in one or two showrooms.

3. and lastly, this is about resale, would Special editions and Dual disc variants generally fare well in the Resale/ used bikes scenario?

Which 140/70 tyre are you using ?

after 2 years, still my gear shifting is hard and some time it struck between gears. and having changed tyre to 140/70 will get little bit ground clearance, which is good for me here in hyd.

Which Showroom in Hyderabad?
Which book/ color you took?
What's the ORP?
