      You shouldn't be complaining when shifts are around max-power RPM. Throttle input plays a significant role too. Even with 6th gear GS150R will return same mileage(if not more) figure if ridden between 7-9k RPM.

      You'll see significant improvement if you shift up around 6,000 RPM, even better mileage if done around 5,000 RPM.

                No sounds at all. And yeah, my riding style is a bit arrogant.

                  When my bike redlines, the engine feels like its dying. Any insights on this?

                    Your bike is fuel injected and every fuel injected engine does that at redline. Its a safety feature to prevent engine seizure or other such mishaps caused by over revving. It causes the bike engine to partially stall so it cannot exceed the rev limit.
                    What rpm is this happening at and what is the bike's rpm limit?

                      Suzuki gixxer is not fuel injected. :P It runs on a carb.

                        It's simply a mechanism to ensure that the engine doesn't over rev and destroy itself. After certain rpm(in your case, it's the redline), the current to the cdi is stopped to ensure that the rpm is within the safe limits. As long as the engine runs good within its rpm limits, there's nothing to worry about..

                          Wow really?!! :O Well that's a serious lack of foresight and lapse in judgement on suzuki's part. In any case that means you got a problem. Tell svc to check air intake and carb jets.

                            Driving nature: Sedate
                            Avg. gear shifts: 1 @ 3k, 2 @4k, 3 @5k, 4@6k, max rpm @5th gear is always <5500. The wobbling shows up after this speed.

                            Current Odo: 820; max speed (only couple of times): 80kmph; avg speed (speeds usually ridden): 65-70kmph

                            Although there are speed-bumps I cross on my daily commute to office, I take slow down (5-15kmph; depending the size of the bump).


                            I noticed that one more person has reported the front wheel wobble issue (apart from elagoas and me).
                            Update: I have given my bike to the SVC to fix the issue. Will get know what they have done to fix the wobbling issue by evening.
