    Standard feature in most HH's, Honda's and Yamaha's. Useful. But the biggest prob is leaving the helmet with the bike - it catches the dust & dirt that comes on to your head.

    The gear shifter height would be adjustable... if that helps in any way.

      First,
      Congratulations...

      I have some queries about the Pricol immobilizer.

      1)Its waterproof ?
      2)How many remotes are provided ?
      3)Can u turn it off when required ? bcos a guy in my college had it and it used to blow unnecessarily which irritates. so if it can be turned off when required, would be good. pls let know abt this.
      4)It drains battery ?

        i am new to xbhp {but not biking }
        i just bought a black gsr ,overall i am impressed with the bike.i was confused between the unicorn and gs 150 first but now i am glad that i chose gs.

        the thread is filled with positive comments and i completely agree with them. its just couple of {-?}points i want to add

        1 i felt the gear shifter and rear brake lever to be at uneven height thus affecting
        the overall riding stance.
        2 the pillion rider sits on camel and it affects the center of gravity of the bike
        making it relatively unstable especially at traffic signals.
        3 my experience with local dealership is not that great yet.
        4 the bike felt a bit lighter in the front ,not that big a deal.

        i definitely would recommend this bike to future buyers.
        Here comes our 12th owner after sakumar good to see the number growing.....ok for your question........Gear shifter can be adjusted, I made a post some pages back about this.....

          oops is that so....I take my words back then,,......and yes leaving the helmet does get the mud IF the parking is in open outdoors.....

            +1 to that&helmet locks also create a problem when the pilling is getting onto the bike. When you finally remove it, you find the paint in that portion is also faded&all you can see is the plastic below it.

                  4.)Yet to know whether it drain battery or not but If use wisely then ur battery on safe side
                  5.)The cost is Rs1200 for model 3(remote start and Off,Immobilizer,vehicle finder) Pricol is the maker

                    Parking in Hot Sun does show its effect on the tyre pressure falling... it is very hot these days in Hyderabad and keep checking your tyre pressure every 2-3 days. Also, if it is happening to one tyre more than to the other then make sure your tyre/tube's valve pin is fine.
                    I have done 560KM on my black GSR, I also noticed that R.P.M. niddle is dancing on idling, can it might be related with carbburator tuning, bythe way How to adjust tappet clearance?

                        Which is why there is a no.of km./days mentioned in the free service coupons, whichever is earlier.

                            after servicin it was ultimate smooth.. went for a long drive too.. n it was very very smooth... for last 2 days the engine feels very stressed..
                            stressed bole toh xtra noise even wen i m ridin at 40-45.. a lil vibes r added.. even after the long drive it was very smooth for few days n then it started.. i was thinkin its coz of engine oil needs to b changed.. 2nd servicin ll mak it smooth..
                            bt the manual is confusin me now..

                                thats what i said in my problem statement. In manual, I am finding it as 3500-4000 kms or 90 days. My bike is 1250 kms and 30 days old. I feel the 2nd service should be around 1200-1500 kms(based on some posts i read on xbhp only).
                                for ex. sam has done 2000 kms and tested max speed of bike a long time back, which means he has got his second servicing long before 3500 kms.
                                So wanted to know whether the manual is correct or the information which i have read on xbhp?
                                And if the manual is correct, should i change the engine oil? Engine feels heavily stressed.
