its a 9ah battery.. written in the manual. specifications page(just before the warranty card and service coupons)
even i'm facing that rough engine issue after riding for 5-7km
is it engine oil for sure or could it be something else too ???

Even i feel little roughness after engine heats up.

Mean while, Suzuki has added a new technology in GS150R which actually sprays the engine oil back to the piston or something like that. No one has spoken here about that in this thread till date. If anybody has any idea on this, then please share

Its common and depend on the oil used. Only pure synthetic oil can give smooth performance at longer runs. But their properties are not as good as semi-synthetic & mineral based oils. A 20W50 oil semi-synthetic, would be good for long running smoothness, perhaps at the expense of acceleration.
Thats exactly why performance bike have lower rated oils, but with an oil cooler. You get acceleration and good lubrication at any stretch.

Have learnt in mech. that splashing oil, from the crankcase, up to the cylinder walls using the connecting rods, is a method of forced (non-external) lubrication technique. GS might be having an improved modification of this stuff. Its simple and works. When am going back home at night after usual crawling 1hr jams, always take the wrong route(free) and cruise at sixth at ~4K rpm to cool-off before heading home.

At jams I really do pity the P220/Fz16/RTR and R15 guys. The former guys keep on moving their legs(got to be the engine heat), the latter bike always makes a fan sound (think they have some fan cooling...my exp. with it, never made that fan sound). They usually in mindless signal 2 signal drags are in jams. They never stare at each other, but at me or some car. I am always under helmet. I remove it, they never do, though its burning hot outside .
...Btw have regularly seen a black GS doing screaming drags with others. At night the real "beast look" is the GS. Those headlamps and mass are really devlish at night from a distance. But the Satan ought to be this R15 look :http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/universa...-light-61.html

Oopsie gotta go

Hehehehe, R15 is the only bike with a full fairing&fan as of now. Sometimes the heat does get to your thighs, as in all full faired bikes.
However, I always open up my helmet visor at signals.
If I see a GS beside me, I take a few looks, as that bike seems to be a new avatar of my Fiero F2. If I hadn't bought the R15, it would have been the GS for sure. My Dad even tried to convince me recently to get the GS by selling off both my bikes!

Never knew that buddy
Btw if the R15 with those ring lights http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/universa...-light-61.html could change color from blue to red as rpm increases...its gonna be whacko
The baby 2 horned beast a.k.a GS humbly at your service daddy Devil

Me too have the same doubt about the quality of the engine oil....
Should we seek out for an alternative brand...
Will post this issue to the service head of south india...

thats a good idea. dont forget to tell us what the reply

hey can we also get those rings on our bikes ??
atleast one ring
i want to put blue colour parking lights atleast and make it dc. (only if my warranty doesnt get void)

Ok guys, here is some details on that engine oils splashing of GS150R...
Its Suzuki Jet Nozzle technology. Here the engine oil is pumped from a tiny nozzle beneath the piston. Because of this, foam will be generated in the engine oil and one can notice this through the oil level checking window of the GSR. This ensures long distance drive of GS150R.

And little details on Engine balancer technology...
It will be a little bit technical stuff. But, I’ll explain it clearly. In vehicles, vibrations are caused by the engine’s piston that moves up and down. Since the engine is mounted on the frame, the vibrations are transferred to the handle bars which is also fitted on the same frame. In GS150R, there is a shaft called engine balancer shaft inside the engine. So what does this balancer shaft do ? While the piston moves upward, this balancer shaft pulls the engine down with same amount of force. And when the piston move downwards, the balancer shaft pushes the engine upwards with the same amount of force. This balancer shaft also located on a rubber damper. Rubber damper is an arrangement made out of rubber bush. So the vibrations comes out of this bike is NIL even at 8500 RPM. This engine balancer technology is available in Suzuki GS150R and in Yamha R15. No other Indian bike has this feature.

And little bit on engine cooling too now...
technology for cooling the engine. You can notice a block opened in the front side of GS150R's engine near the exhaust vent. The air will get into that opening, making the engine cool and comes out of the engine from the backside.

Its direct copy paste from the net, i dont have any rights on this

i got my bike from servicing today.
they didnt do a thing about the rust
over the kick lever the put some oil.. actually lots of oil.. its dripping
the other places nothing at all..
and those guys are like "we have to get the black paint from suzuki and right now we dont have stock, we'll see during next service" !!!

and the rear brake thing. they've done some weird things. near the rear foot rest(right side) i can see some wires which werent there before..
even near the disc brake there's some red and black wire which wasnt there initially..

battery seems to be ok for now. they said they charged it and the battery doesnt have any problems.

what do i do about the rust now

As mentioned before in this thread many times, give the problem in writing and get the acknowledgment, then report the same to Suzuki India, your problem might get solved. If you wont get any solution then report it to the Suzuki Global (Japan), and then i'm sure that they will solve it. But i seriously dont think that you have to go all the way to Japan to solve this issue.
People, whenever anybody now onwards get this rust problem right, then follow the same procedure, lets not talk about rust any more.

One more similarity i found about GS150R with its global siblings, is two cables for accelerator... anybody knows the advantage? I asked this to the SC guys, they said as usual it helps in proper acceleration, i don't know why this SC guys are always behave like dumb creature.

hi

hi.. plz help me ..at 3.5k rpm, before first service i had very low vibrations. almost nil.. & after first service i got vibrations in that digital console only(some sort of sound too from that).. and after second service i got vibrations in digital console + gear lever+ footpegs. and that digital console shaking alot & making noise when my bike get over potholes.. i dont like all these things.. so plz. tell me how to handle this problem..

Here is a replica of GS150R, looks funny, just thought of sharing with you guys...

ya i'll do that. sorry for bringing it up.

most SC guys dont know much, there may be one or two experts who know things in detail. so u have to ask them only about these things.

and about engine oil. for me they put veedol 20w40.
is that supposed to be bad or good or ok ??
the SC guys said dont worry its within suzuki specifications, u dont have to change it.
and the roughness is just tappet noise, its ok.

@ arun prasad.
if the console is making noise show it to them, if its just a little shake ignore it.
according to SC, if the headlight assemble is made too tight then its life reduces because the places around the screws will start cracking.
atleast thats what they told me when i asked this.

Hey buddy, me thinks better give to another SC, those wires on footrest and disc brake caliphers are Btw isn,t OEM oil castrol and not veedol.
With regards to rust, do try out WD-40 (saturate it on rust area and leave it overnight). It can do wonders on rust. Dio foot silencer plate is rust-free(ie. no brownish color) Try it out everywhere & also tank mouth cavity. I have simply sprayed/nozzled it on any rust prone areas on GS as in vishal's pics. 0% visible rust till now.
If this is not helping, then try the higher ups.

Back to SC I guess They might have not put back parts with correct technique, causing all those vibs. (mine was a nightmare )
