    • Ppl don't buy orange... dammit. I thought like my green caliber 115, I'll be one of the few having orange GS, as not many ppl may go for orange. But now almost daily I am seeing atleast one orange GS damn.

      Now blue seems a rare color!

        The orange color looks fantastic.It has more contrast than the other three colors.

        • Jithus.. the total premium amt is 1358.

          animeher... everybody wants to be different, so nobody is...!!! my personal opinion is GS looks damn good in Orange. Black is the best colour for a bike but black GS looks more like pulsar (though bigger). Greenish blue doesnt look good (i feel). Grey and Orange are better colours.

          Orange gets that look becas of the black lining in the tank and the sides.. Orange and black combination works out well. It is actually good that many are buying orange. This colour has the tendency to fade soon and so we will have lot of company...

          Also i dont think any other bike comes in this colour which makes it unique to GS. When i said to my friend that i bought Orange colour, he laughed (he doesnt know anything abt bikes..btw) It is a "Ramarajan" colour .. . But it works great for GS.

            so does your gs also have slight vibrations at the brake and gear lever after engine gets hot (like after riding 7-8km)??
            i have only that thing to figure out now. will show it to SC in 1 month when i go for 2nd service and ask why thats happening.
            not noticed any extra vibes.. not even on my trip to pondy and back. the only extra vibes are at 3.5k rpm levels, which can be easily ignored, and not an issue at all.

            mines blue, and I am loving it

            @gb_raj
            fantastic deal you have got dude. safe biking!
            yes the engine is little less refined than the unicorn. but good nevertheless.

            6th gear both a boon and bane. sometimes, feels as though too many gears to change. but on the other hand, cruising in the 6th gear 50kph onwards is stressfree.. Of course, you always have the option not to engage it in the city.

            Cheers!

                When taking the delivery they will give the tatoo. Best of luck for that. Showroom guy was telling that each showroom was given 3 "grand winner" tatoos. Two people have already got that from Airport rd showroom. I was dreaming i would win that or atleast some 5000 or 10000 off. bad luck ...anyway happy with whatever i got. So still 1 tatoo is there.

                You could also consider grey. At the last moment, i got very confused between Grey and orange. But finally settled for Orange. Grey looks very decent and kinda formal.

                    Thank you for your suggestion Raj....I ma taking the bike at Hyderabad....couple of people there got 4500 Rs. Let me check my luck.....I have seen Orange, blue and Black but have not seen Grey yet. They told that all 4 colors will be available tomorrow...let me go and see....I liked Orange much bcoz of its combination with black...but afraid of fading effect......Let me look for blue or Grey....

                            when i enquired about the rusting issue, they first pretended as if they had not heard of any such thing. But later he was telling that some people wanted to pull Suzuki down and so bringing such kind of rumours. They were also telling that the owners are not taking proper care of the
                            vehicle, this that, but never accepted that such an issue really existed.
                            looks like everyone gets free teflon coating, seat cover,handle bar grip at airport road suzuki .
                            btw saree guard isnt part of the accessories. it comes with the bike itself.

                            and who was the person at the showroom who told u owners arent taking proper care of their bike ??
                            because i'm one of the people who complained about rust.
                            and obviously i take good care of my bike, even polish it till my hand hurts

                              • Hoollaahhhh..... somany people joining GS GANG..!!! good to see that. Logged in after many days because of busy schedule.
                                I have Orange GS, and ofcourse we had discussion in earlier posts on the fading of this color, but as being a metallic color the fading intensity will be very less. All colors fade but bright colors looks like more faded. Just take nice care of Orange Baby gixxer and it will never let you down both in performance and look wise.

                                Happy biking guys
