Check whether its leaking, if not, then you are burning the oil. Either way take it to the SVC and report to them this issue immediately. And be very firm and stern about this so that they dont take it lightly. If any parts have to be repaired or replaced it will be covered under warranty.

Burning the oil !! Means I am speeding, Right?

Then stop speeding and see if that helps.

Thats it, if that doesnt resolve it then head down to your local SVC and get it checked.

And another one , the engine is also heating too much with rock hard gear shift.

Did you follow the breakin procedure mentioned in your user manual?

Yes I do followed it but not that much strictly sometimes I was riding at higher RPM.

Gears will remain hard nothing can be done about that. Wear a hard shoes and improve your shifting technique to compensate for this. As for heating, the bike will heat up in bumper to bumper traffic. If its heating upto the point that its burning your legs then take it to the SVC. Depending on how "Not that much strictly" you followed the Breakin procedures, theres a chance something might have gone wrong.

i've completed 800kms on mine and got the oil changed with first service. the gear shift was hard when i took delivery of the bike last month. it was so bad that my toe started aching the next day. i took it back to the svc and had it checked out. the svc guy tweaked it a bit and its been much smoother since then. shift is still a bit hard compared to other bikes but its nowhere near the levels of day 1 and i dont need to wear heavy duty shoes to protect my feet.

Query abt the rear shocks in Gixxer!


Does the rear shock in the Gixxer have adjustments for rebound or compression in addition to preload?

Lol No, what do think the rear shocks are? Ohlins?

Pretty much not they are! The Sales guy said that the shock can be adjusted for stiff or spongy suspension! So I got this query posted here!

So the shock can be adjusted only for ride height??
