Thinking of changing pilot lamp to led does anyone tried this

Do not try mods on a new bike especially the air filter one it will do more bad than good..

Safe
Will violate the electrical warranty but if you can live with that its fine
Youll find one in Flipkart or snapdeal for 200 for a pair
Do check

There are very few things thats covered in electrical parts and they have a 1 year warranty.
Make note if you have purchased a extended warranty it covers only your engines
That too if you do all the 9 services including 4 free 4 paid and a bonus and run on stock oil.

Re: Suzuki Gixxer SF : Ownership thread

Hello Everyone I'm completely new here.,

I'm gonna buy this bike in Feb mostly around 2nd week of Feb.I have some questions and need some suggestions.,
I'm from Vizag,AP

Firstly I'm buying this bike for only two reasons first one is looks and second one is mileage.,here it costs me around 1.05lakh for this bike on road.
I had a confusion whether to go for this or r15 or FZ but I'm pretty sure I'll go for this.,as the mileage of them is not good as this.

I will buy the black color,to be honest I didn't like Moto GP edition because I like anything to be simple so I'll buy the black one.

As I'm willing to buy it in Feb.,one of the post here said there will be a rear disc coming in Feb can anyone suggest when is it coming?
I'm 6 feet will there be any problems driving this bike?
Is it comfortable to do 100km journey?

And I might go to Hyd or Chennai after this June so I think SF is good.

I've few more questions.,I'll ask them a week before buying the bike.

Thankyou

There is a rumor but no solid news that its coming
You can ask your area service manager if they have a news by saying you have made an advance and came to know that a dual disc version is approaching and is it true? If yes he can give you the satisfactory answers
As svcs will more or less give you "yes sir it Will launch soon"

I had the same confusion. I'm taking delivery of my white SF tomorrow

I checked with the mechanic in the service section and he confirmed once read disc is available, you can order it and replace your drum brake.

Seems there will be a long waiting period for the parts to arrive and to be fitted.

Can anyone confirm this?

Re: Suzuki Gixxer SF : Ownership thread

Which handle bar cost u is this clip on bars, if yes does SVC guys charge u service cost

Sadly, not the clip-ons bruv. I got the stock ones. The SVC will charge you for the littlest of things, but that's fair. Fitting charges were Rs. 85

I see the possibility of an SVC doing clip-ons to be as good as none. First of all the after-market clip-ons (that actually fit into gixxer without any drama) have not yet been made available. Then the handle bar clamp will have to be chopped off, I wonder wouldnt suzi have problems liquidating their own design. the ground clearance will get even lesser .

But the possibility to have true clip-ons is 100% on our bike. So its just a matter of time that one will see a succesful mod, a perfect one

Re: Suzuki Gixxer SF : Ownership thread

Motorcycle air cooled engines are supposed to run hot. When i got my bike, it was ~17km away and my bro was riding while i was pillion(since i didnt know how to ride :P ).
After giving puja i washed the sindoor off and water steamed off the engine instantly. So no worries about the performance. They say to keep it below 5K RPM for first service but its ok if it goes over once or twice. Just remember, always start and idle for 1min before riding off. Most people dont and complain later that performance is bad.
I did this, and also the bike felt very slow, like it doesnt like revving. But after first service yesterday, its like butter. The gear shift, to throttle, everything is butter.

Can we install a footrest so that the pillion gets some help in getting on/off the bike?
