Re: Suzuki Gixxer SF : Ownership thread

Got my 1st servicing done at 460kms because 1month was completed since by purchase. Today i saw engine oil leaking from the drain bolt and there was oil on the bike parking floor. I had to tighten the screw myself and I was able to tighten it a little.

2nd problem is the gear shifting.. 1st gear to 2nd gear shift is going to Neural at times in traffic on the middle of the road. [emoji29]

When on centre stand if i press the clutch and shift to 1st gear the tyre keep rotating even if i stop it with my hand it starts rotating again.

Servicing done at Automatic Suzuki, Pune.

They made the invoice by adding engine oil supplement "Bardhal Oil Suppliment" 149/- [emoji52]

Any tips to ask the service center guys to fix in particular because I'm going to complaint about the engine oil leak and the gear shift issue.

Also, is it okay to sift from 2nd gear to neutral gear in case I'm haulting the bike on a traffic signal ?

Get teh clutch cable adjusted properly. Theres no freeplay when the bike comes from factory. Tht will solve your False neutral and tyre rotating issue. Also wear hard shoes or boots while riding, that will greatly improve shifting experience.

As for oil leak, maybe your drain bolt was not tight enough? Was it leaking from day 1?

Oil supplement is gimmick, why did they use that?

As for 2nd to neutral, why do you think the neutral is in between 1st and 2nd? Yes you can go to neutral while coasting (that is the proper term not haulting) but its preferable to use engine braking to slow down rather than going to neutral and using the brakes.

Oil wasn't leaking from day 1, it started leaking after I got my bike from the service center yesterday and noticed it today evening.
Thanks, I'll ask them to adjust the clutch cable.

As for oil supplement, its my fault I didnt argue with them why they are forcefully adding it in the invoice and then asking the mechanic to pour it into the engine. Next time I'll make sure they don't do this.

What is the cost of those indicators?

Re: Suzuki Gixxer SF : Ownership thread

Os there any indicator buzzer available online which sounds very feeble or very less. My current buzzer sound is very loud and recently i added a hazard light mode.

I went to Suzuki service station, at first they re-tightend the drain bolt and asked me to check it for 2 days and come back.
I sat outside the service center in the Suzuki showroom parking for 20-25mins re checked and the leak was still there.

Then the engineer darined the engine oil and replaced the drain bolt washer.

I noticed that engine oil was kind of black. Is it normal for 100kms running stock suzuki engine oil ??

Check the oil drain bolt just now and sigh... There is no engine oil leak.

Couldn't sleep throughout the weekend as my mind was filled with thoughts that the threads of oil pan has been damaged.

Service center guy told me that Suzuki Motul oil is discontinued. Is it true ??

....KTM indicators...

I went to buy these indicators here as well but I realized their joining end is smaller than the existing ones(R15). Did you make any changes in there to fit it perfectly?

If the SVC guy said that to you then slap this on his face: https://www.suzukimotorcycle.co.in/a...l-4t-10w40-ltr

There are 3 specific complaints I have that need to be addressed at Factory level. I have already initiated FTR from my side via an Area manager but additional mentions can be productive and beneficial. I am going to be mentioning Part numbers with their names as Mentioned in the Product Catalog

1. 94411-34J00-YVB COWLING, BODY (BLACK) is deviated slightly towards the right side because 94510-34J00 BRACE, COWLING is deviated towards the right because the receiving bracket that holds the donating bracket from the Brace is welded incorrectly onto the Steering/Head tube.

2. 61000-34J30 SWINGINGARM ASSY, REAR is deviated towards the left which leads me to believe that there is an issue with teh 61211-23J00 SHAFT, PIVOT or with the part of the Chassis that holds the Pivot Shaft

Because of teh swingarm deviation 27511-30H20 SPROCKET, ENGINE (NT:15) and 64511-34J20 SPROCKET, REAR (NT:45) are not in a single plain hence its causing uneven wear and tear on both teh sprockets and 27600-30H40-132 CHAIN ASSY and not to mention on the Rear Tyre as well

3. 34150-34J00 .CASE, UPPER has 2 parts, 1 is the plastic casing and 2 is the transparent plastic on top which is glued to the casing. Unfortunately the glue is deteriorating and developing air bubbles over time which can be visibly seen and is annoying. This needs to be resolved.

Yes.. I did I cut the wires from stock indicators, soldered them to the Duke ones and then installed them..
