    thanks,
    Hope.
    Yes me and some of them in the thread installed anti theft but not under petrol tank, but under seat,Its pricol owned xenos brand name firewall45 cost Rs 1100 to 1250 (depend on sellers).
    Pricol is speedometer manufacture, they have subsudiary company called xenos.
    But fitting to GS150 is complicated ,one of them mistakely press remote start in 1st gear the bike in side stand got moved and fall down his tank is dent.
    He put a on off switch for that ,he forgot to off it.
    My mech did otherwise it won't start in gears(remote start,self start),not only that ,the bike self start and remotestart work only in neutral by appling clutch.
    SO if ur bike stall in traffic u have to bring to neutral to start(all these bcos of the antitheft by xenos)i don't know about other brand , even there is solution for these, but knowledge of wiring is not good for my mechanic.He don't connect the IMMOBLIZER options.

      But still i think suzuki is very much interested in Keeping GS in forefront because it is a VFM.
      I agree that VFM ,what i want to know is my GS is genuine trouble freee or not.
      except rough engine( i thought this is smooth initially but after driving other GS, mine is rough)..
      For that we have to ride the bike ,that suzuki agree to replace piston and bore.....thats not happen for everyone.
      Then only we conclude to the point we need replacement.....
      Still with me is Mathew(also in orkut) and donarun(most affected one,but also IMjoshy(who got money refunded frm suzuki)
      But i can live with it(rough engine).Bcos of pure pleasure of driving

        The new one with 2 color is tooo smooth and great pickup,its almost beat unicorn in all aspect.My bike sound is rough(also one of the CBZ extreeme guy test rode mine told ur bike engine is rough , I test rode his CBZ extreeeme is smooth but vibrate in handle)......
        SO now i thought to drive other old GS150R if i found in my town....Bcos I have doubt that i need bore and piston change
        Others who have same rough engine also test drive the new Gs150 and share here pls.......
        Previously i rode another Gs150 with 25000km on odo,the rough sound is same but great pickup than me, he told he got 60kmpl previous now getting 50plus.He now sold his bike now 40000km on odo and buy a new GS150 again(heard frm a friend of him)
        im in frnd place now gave my bike for service today morning. Also bought LED (but that shop guy said its normal bulb ) real LED wil lbe 150 and he is not having stock. will post the pic and other details after getting the bike.

        I will test drive the new gs and will compare with mine. But as far i remember the ABT showroom guys mentioned there is no difference in engine

          sorry friend i thought anti theft alarm,not petrol antitheft(on/off/reserve) with key.
          I think with this R to R knob of kind,its difficult to install a petrol lock what u asking?

                akfara... norms is just filter... u can find a square kind of thing at the start of silencer that is all about. And they didnt change the silencer just the cover where our pillion keep foot.. so its just same silencer with extra filter... but yeah i agree it will change the sound of the roar...

                sadly i couldnt test drive due to short of time...


                Guys... here comes my update...

                1. When to ABT nandanam today morning around 8AM for my second free service.
                - They asked to change oil and no need to change filter.in my case i changed arnd 1k KM back but still i nodded my head for change.
                - They advised me not to use Speed or Shell petrol asked me to use the normal unleaded from BP or IOC
                - They changed oil Used a fresh pack of Castrol power 1 15W40
                - Cleaned plug,air filter,adjusted clutch play,chain etc. Water Wash and yeah pretty much general service.
                - As bike is clean and they lubricated the points my bike feels good along with engine oil change. but i will say shell was better in gear shift then castrol But engine is having superb pick up
                - I will post a pic from my crash incident. Actually other side to saree guard there is one plastic thing comes right ? i dont know its name. I have a crack in that yeah yeah accident did it. i noticed lately so enquired about the price for that they said 750 also i asked about the head light glass change it will be 1500. i said keep it yourself i dont wanna change lol
                - The things i noticed there. Mechanics at times taking the bike coming for service to go near by area for any work
                - The guy who worked by bike started my bike and ran it for couple of mins after changing oil but it got turned off i was watching from distance. then he tried and tried... after that he called other mechanics asking for help as bike refused to start. As 5 person gathered arnd my bike i started smiling and went to them asked what s the problem ? then one guy said nothing sir. i smiled again and said its simple guys u have to turn on the petrol lol... but then it started and ran again. lol they dint check this and starting troubleshooting all other things

                2. Got the bulb for position lamp it is white and AFAIK it is LED. As mentioned earlier that shop guy told its normal color bulb not LED. which will cost 150 per pair but he is not having stock. i got this bulb pair for 40 rupees this is exactly what akfara used from his old pulsar.
                - i was not able to fit this today myself. I some how removed the bottom two bolts but not able to remove one screw under the visor glass. But tested it with number plate connection it s working good. but i couldnt fix here also as the bulb along with casing is too thick to insert in the slot
                - Any help in fixing the position bulb is greatly appreciated

                3. Back to accident scene.
                - I did some sticker works to hide the scratches hope it looks good.
                - i used some line of red which reflects in night

                • wow great mileage in bangalore congested traffic

                  Had a long trip with in bangalore city that too on too much traffic area(s), bad roads and narrow market streets

                  * Started from home ( devasandra @ 4 pm) went to Whitfield (ITPL)
                  * Got reserve stopped the vehicle on road side and reset tripmeter to O Went to petrol bunk loaded 1 liter normal petrol
                  * driven to indranagar traveled in some inside streets of indra nagar and moved towards majestic via ulsore lake then kalasipalayam purchased few things at city market

                  gone thru narrow streets of city market, upparapet, cottonpet, chickpet and mammulpet areas
                  put together all the items in a carton box and tied up with a rope traveled back towards home
                  got reserve at devasandra and the tripmeeter shows 52.3 reached home by 8 pm

                  Statistics

                  Top speed reached 65
                  Average speed 30
                  Almost 25 kms on narrow Market streets (citymarket, upparapet, cottonpet, chickpet and mammulpet) with an average of 12 kmph speed

                  Applied clutch a lot of times

                  Stopped and started the vehicle at least 15-17 times

                  Now I strongly believe my GS150R will give 60kmpl in normal city riding condition coz the above mentioned trip was on very bad driving condition
                  And the mileage I got was an amazing 52kmpl

                  I know it may sounds silly; but ppl living in bangalore knows its an extraodinary mileage for a 150cc bike

                            - i was not able to fit this today myself. I some how removed the bottom two bolts but not able to remove one screw under the visor glass. But tested it with number plate connection it s working good. but i couldnt fix here also as the bulb along with casing is too thick to insert in the slot
                            - Any help in fixing the position bulb is greatly appreciated

                            3. Back to accident scene.
                            - I did some sticker works to hide the scratches hope it looks good.
                            - i used some line of red which reflects in night

                            NICE Work BRo........BTW.......WATs DAt Flame Type ThiNG In UR LAst N sEcond LAst PIc??????

                              • @maestro how much those bulbs cost you? Also rajesh i liked the Sticker and the red thing you did was nice addition now looks good. Castrol Power 1 i heard that it is not one of the best why didn't you try to put Petronas engine oil or maybe motul
