  • Re: Suzuki Gixxer SF : Ownership thread

    Got my beast yesterday.

    After many days of arguing with the SVC and nail biting wait, finally she is home after 21 days.

    Got her to office today and was smiling all the way as not only were the follow bikers on the road looking at it but also the people on the pedestrian were staring at it.

    She feels awesome. however i need to get used to the 1-4 gear system, as my first bike was a platina.

          Sure ill post some snaps as soon as I get out of office.

          As for the dealer, I got it from Kaveri Suzuki, Kandaveli. (Its right on link road) (just a header i stay in santacruz yet i booked it from there, as it offered the least waiting period, and I'm one impatient guy :P)

          I have got the moto gp edition, blue colour. (one more heads up this guy has also made a white variant with graphic. its his in-house creation and i don't know if hes selling it but even that looks amazing)

          Hi guys i needed some assistance as im new to the rpm meter and have never used it.

          can any1 tell me the cutoff (rpm limiter) for each for each gear.
          i.e. at what rpm i need to up-shift.

          i need it as the SVC guy hasn't done the set up for the rpm limiter.

              no no not this, this tells me that i should keep the vehicle under these rpm.

              im askin for independent gears.

              because i want to set the RMP limiter on the bike (the rpm light on the instrument cluster.)

                He has given you the answer in a sort of other way
                Till first servicing you cant(should not to be true) exceed 4.5k rpm so set you rev limit at what is the nearest low to 4500
                You have to shift all your gears within this rpm
                After the break in period it depend on you when you want to shift

                      Firstly: a very big congratulations!!! 21 days for a SF in Mumbai is an achievement! I'm waiting for the past 66 days....
                      I live in Malad and i didn't know there was one SVC in Kandivali!
                      While i was bike hunting this SVC wasn't listed on the Suzuki Website(although it is there now), and me also being impatient didn't check further and went to Dolphin Suzuki instead.
                      Is this a new SVC or has been there before?
                      And yes! Pics are awaited!

                        To all those guys waiting for the vehicle...cheer up. I was given a waiting period of 50 days and bike was delivered in 40, here in SMK Suzuki Chennai. Today I heard that it's a 30 day waiting period as told by SMK so I'm sure u will get it before that.

                        Oknhere is my first review...or rather first service review.
                        Took delivery on 25th June and right when I first rode it I can feel the smoothness of the engine, the gear shifting and the bike was so stable...this could be because I leart riding a month before on a Apache.
                        Since the SVC delivers the vehicle with only 1/2 ltr petrol I went directly to shell nearby and got 9lts above the reserve. Daily ride is from home-office-home about 15kms, and then took it to a slightly long ride(porur - SSN college and back) fuel indicator started blinking only after I hit 470 and I still didn't hit reserve
                        Today I went for first service @731 kms on trip meter. I asked to change the RVM since its unusable in traffic, but the SVC guy told me that it will spoil the look, just then a guy next to me who had a naked gixxer said even his handlebar RVMs sometimes give trouble.....hmmm so I left the Stock RVMs as it is. I specifically asked for chain clean/lube and it costed me a extra 150. The SVC guy told me that the delivery will be the next day, I said OK n left(11am) and they call me at 3pm saying that the bike is ready
                        The total bill is 570, here is the break up
                        Oil -300
                        Oil filter -40
                        Consumables - 60
                        Chain lubrication - 150
                        This is at SMK porur Chennai.
                        After I took the bike from SVC I came to office and the noticed the indicator buzzer is not sounding and the idle rpm is about 2k....
                        They called me asking if everything is OK, I told them about the problems above....they asked me to come back...which I said I will the next day.
                        But I just came back from office and now the indicator buzzer is sounding as normal and the idle rpm is just about 1.5k, so I think it's normal....but still will be watchful for the next few days and see.
                        If u guys have any questions let me know...I will try to answer as much as I can.

                        Hey im awaiting my blue gixxer sf which will be delivered in a few days...
                        im a rookie about Bike Knowledge could u please explain what is Idle RPM ?

                          But they said the registration will take 10 working days!
                          Have they promised you to get your bike delivered early?
                          We can go at the same time if both of our bikes are being delivered at the same day.
                          Let me know how it goes.

                              Idle RPM is the RPM when you keep your bike on neutral according to my knowledge.
                              Even i'm a rookie so could be wrong.
