    Besides the lap top, these are the losses:


    Planning to claim insurance for the headlight assembly tomorrow.
    It's very sad to hear that. Hope the pillion recovers soon. But fortunately, you escaped without any major injury. Please share the procedure for claiming insurance. I would like to know because I have never done it before.

    I booked my GS on 13th Feb. I was informed that new load has to come for my delivery since white was not in the stock.
    Today I got a call from the dealer that, one cancellation has happened and my bike is available now. But the new load hasn't come yet, it will come after one week.
    Can there anything suspicious about this?
    I am from Calicut and I got good reception and care from the dealer when I went for enquiry and TD for GS.
    Here I have two choices, I can take this one or can wait for the new load to come.
    (Please excuse me if my thoughts are wrong)
    Ask the dealer if you can inspect the bike. Do the regular PDI (check previous pages for more info). If you find anything wrong, then wait for the new stock to arrive.

    • @punarvasu,

      Accidents are sad things to happen, but the optimistic side is that it increases our experience and awareness. Hoping you and your pillion recovers soon.

      Suggestion,
      God forbid. If you've any expectations of surviving a major accident, then I'd suggest you opt for a better helmet.

      • @punarvasu,
        get well soon bro,

        gravel surface is always dangerous and unpredictable.

        please let all know the insurance claim procedure for gs,as many of us want to know about it and particularly on claiming for the front cowl and fiber /plastic parts.

        my bikes recent mileage on local weekly refill reserve to reserve calculation comes around 47 kmpl
        with one week of 3 to 8 kms trips i feel that's too good number for a 150cc

        @manubhat, i believe your bike is admitted in Joels garage rite.

        this time i decided to go for service at aryan suzuki at k r puram

            Really sad to hear that bro
            Now thinking upon what MSN1 said about the mod I was planning to buy for the bike, I'll just skip it so as to get more attention on the road.
            Also, wish for well being of your pillion as well.....

              Never argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and then beat you with experience.

                  Rs.1250/-only.

                  Do not think it will be that high. First picture is of Rare Disc Mod in H/H Passion . Next FZ16.
                  I do not think many people have tried mod on GS except HID & Full DC setup.

                        Speedy recovery for your pillion, I think he is not in a situation to tackle the fall from bike.

                        • Driving is an Art. Braking is the precision of driving...

                          One thing I would like to quote about GS150R braking...

                          According to me, brakes in GSR are perfectly crafted. When I'm new to this bike, I meet with an accident because of wrongly applying rear brake. Rear tyre skid on a wet road. After that I read the manual of GSR where it is written that, both the brakes need to be applied for stopping the bike. Now I'm very comfortable in applying the brakes.
