I can completely understand how it feels bro...but hey look at the positive side...the damage is only cosmetic..and replacable..
Once u replace it u will forget it evr hapnd..

What i suggest might work is to purchase the decals on the bike itself....i mean I do hv some minor scratches on my blue eyed boy as well...my plan is to purchase the sticker from SVC..

The ''uki '' part of stickering done under the tank..where your thighs and knees hug the tank..
I hv observed that has the highest portion of Trion Blue on it..it would cost you about 200bucks..
Then you can use the blue part and stick it on the severely affected part of the doom...
I believe it will mask it to an extent it will not be immediately visible and might just do the job...
Like i said i am thinking of doing it but have not done it yet so i don't know if it will work...pls let me kno if you have tried it asto whether it worked or not..

Re: Suzuki Gixxer SF : Ownership thread

Also...When i had my first crash and had some scratches along with damaging the right side fairing bit, i met the mechanic at the Suzuki showroom where i bought the bike since i was in good terms with him and asked what to do...since this was way back in June and Spares and fairing bits for the SF were difficult to obtain..

He said he can get it painted...as good as new...and no one, evn me cn mk out the difference...
He said they do it alll the time on new bikes as they do get damaged whilst in transit..
He promised to get it done and said it will cost 1k...
I did not like the idea...so din't go for it and since it cost me only 1350 at that time, replaced the fairing..
All is good now..but the prices of the fairing replacements have gone pretty high now..:thumbdown::thumbdown:

So u know what am trying to say...check with the dealership..some mechanic there who can probably do the same for you..
Hope i hv helped...cheers fellas !!

Re: Suzuki Gixxer SF : Ownership thread

Hi all,

This is my first post on xBhp. I am following this thread since long time. I was thinking of getting gixxer sf from quite a long. And this new fi version launch of gixxer almost made me postpone the purchase. Then came to know one newly launched application giving discount around 14 k on bike booking through it. Got tempted and booked the bike straight away. Finally getting the bike at 91159 rs OTR. Hope I have made right decision.

Mostly I will be getting my bike on this weekend. Excited to get hands on baby busa!!! Can't wait!!!

I'd say that's a pretty sweet deal mate...

Make sure you do a thorough PDI..

Re: Suzuki Gixxer SF : Ownership thread

On another note, do any of the Guys here know if it is a closed or an open loop Fi on the SF...?

Re: Suzuki Gixxer SF : Ownership thread

I was thinking of applying blur or black coloured carbon fibre vinyl wrap,which i was going to stick on the scratched part which is on the front edge of the doom beside the headlight,it would certainly look good if i apply that on both of the sides.My question is that if i do this whether or not the vinyl wraps further damage the paint job near the scratched portion on the edge of the doom?

If the paint is not clear coated then it will damage the paint depending on the quality of the Vinyl stickiness.

Guys I have changed the engine oil last week itself and today when I checked the indicator after riding for half an hour, the indicator shows empty.. Want to understand what is happening here?

After any ride, wait for at least half an hour with the bike parked on main stand/paddock. Not on side stand.
Then measure the level.

Hi could you tell the application from which you have booked and got the discount. It would be great if you explain that in detail.

Thanks

I posted the picture of the oil level earlier, but the bike was on side stand. When I checked on the center stand today, the oil filled the whole circle, so I guess its alright.

Initially the gear shift seems hard.. Happened to me too.. But after first service,the difference is huge... And as time passes,it gets smoother... So calm down and keep riding😁😝
