Re: Suzuki Gixxer SF : Ownership thread

im being realistic.. these are comon issues that means they already got a pile of those complaints. reason for discussing is to just satisfy ourselves that others also got the same issues😜 and a hope may be someone solved it

Re: Suzuki Gixxer SF : Ownership thread

You are killing your engine... yep really slow

65 is slow but not dead slow.. its called riding in economy and it doesn't harm engine by any means, when u load and unload at descent intervals... thanks to those series of speed brakes. once i hit high way i rev upto 5k (~70), my traveling route is a healthy mix of free way village and town
✌️respect ur coment though

70 is enough if you are happy with that speed. Regarding mailing Suzuki - you should definitely give it a try. They are prompt in replying/getting back to you. A few years back I asked a clarification about the amount of engine oil to be filled in GS. They replied me within hours of sending that mail. Also, a few days back, I left a message through the "contact us" link in the website. I asked them whether there is an official spare parts distributor in Southern India/Chennai - the next day, somebody from spares division at Gurgaon Factory clarified that dealers are the only official source of Suzuki Genuine Parts.

Re: Suzuki Gixxer SF : Ownership thread

NOTICE: So I had a detailed conversation with the RM of my SVC, here are a couple of points to note about Engine Oil for GSX150/F

1. Recommended engine oils for the Gixxer are:

https://www.suzukimotorcycle.co.in/accessories/oils-chemicals/suzuki-by-idemitsu-4t-10w40

https://www.suzukimotorcycle.co.in/accessories/oils-chemicals/suzuki-by-motul-4t-10w40-ltr

If you use an Engine oil other than the 2 mentioned above, you do so at your own risk meaning; if something happens to the engine due to usage of a non-recommended oil, SIMPL will not be responsible for it hence the warranty will not cover it.

2. A fully synthetic version of Idemitsu is going to be available at SVCs soon.

3. There are plans of completely phasing out Idemitsu and Motul and introduce in-house engine oil brand which is ECSTAR (links below for reference)
ECSTAR Suzuki Genuine Oil*| Suzuki Motor of America, Inc
ECSTAR | Global Suzuki


This is all you need to know about Recommended Engine Oils for the Gixxer. Period!

Personal Note: I have used the Motul 10w40 Mineral, 7100 10w40 and Idemitsu SS 10w40. To me the difference between the Idemitsu and 7100 is marginal, not significant enough to justify the double cost of the 7100.

Performance of the motorcycle is consistent with all the 3 engine oils both on Streets and the Track.

TBH Iam excited about the FS Idemitsu launch and the ECSTAR introduction. Lets see how it goes!

I too faced the same issue this part was changed i don't know what its called. This part was somewhere inside the clutch chamber. After this i lube the chain at every 400km. I don't know wether lubing the chain has something to do with gear shifts or not but now the gear shifts are buttery smooth.
