      I know that some of us have major milage issues...
      So, is there anyone who got this corrected????

      I am tired of this,
      Fed up of visiting SC frequently...
      Should i ask them to change the carb???

      If anyone found a solution please reply, what they exactly did to ur bike???
      No solution yet my friend. I wrote to suzuki thrice already but no feedback/solution from them yet. I think we just have to get used to the issue and live with it.

Right side of this u will find the live camera area. u have drop down menu to change the area(camera) as well.. then one more thing they wont telecast live video. But the video will be delayed by 1 or 2 hour. Then the traffic based on area is live u can check this in map. I use this link daily to avoid much travel in traffic areas..

          seriously, stop listening to that mechanic
          hidden areas in the tank, lol.
          all bikes have some unusable part, this is in the bottom below the reserve pipe. and it may affect mileage calculation only for the first time fuel is filled( when you just buy the bike).
          after that use the normal reserve method.
          Just try different bunks, may be fuel is adultrated or the meters at the bunks are faulty.

                  Speedy,
                  Like I have mentioned earlier, stick to mineral oil for atleat 8k-10k on the odo & then you can switch to semi synthetic & full synthetic oils. You can try ElfMoto Gold or Gulf.Activ is not good as these oils & so my advice would be not to use it.

                    • Update: 8,000 kms

                      My GS completed 8,000 KMS. Went in for its fourth service. Costed Rs.319/-. Oil and Oil Filter. The tank has been replaced after I complained about the rusting. Millage is 55 KMPL. The Dealer Dr.Rajkumar Suzuki is superb. Their service is very good. No other complaints.

                        • My past experience with oil says that stick with the usual one, don't experiment unless you are willing to risk the engine. Trust me, if it ain't broken, don't fix it. Suzuki is smooth already, I would advice not to play with the blood (oil) to further smoothen it.

                              I did not get the part where you said don't press the clutch when decelerating.So it means when i want to stop the bike their is no need to press the cluthch.
                              What I mean is no coasting. I know some people who press the clutch the momnet they release the throttle. They think they are saving fuel or something. Do not do that. Only press the clutch when the bike is about to stall or stop or while gear shifting.

                              Did you get your manual? Where did you buy your GS from, Ulhasnagar Showroom?
                              With great Power(and Torque) comes great responsibility.
