    It is not advisable to maintain constant speeds during first 1000kms for a replace bore and piston.......vary engine speeds.
    Thanks mach....is my mileage will less on those period? due to friction ?

        Thanks Abdul bhai,

        Am ok with the pressent LED o my GS am looking for a suitable HeadLamp

        Seems the normal Halogen with white color instead of yellow (default) one is better.

        What you guys say

        Is their any ban from Govt side for 12V 35/35 White Halogen.

          Your only choice other than this bulb is HID for getting white type illumination Cost 1110 to 1400 when i check price in pudupet chennai

          • Review of Motul 3000T 20W -40 Mineral oil on GS150R

            Yeah i just wanna go for bit more brightness with out making much change with wiring believe the white halogen will do

            ************************************************** *******

            By the way I touched 6K today
            and it was 2400 Kms with Motul 20w-40

            here is my Review of Motul 3000T 20W -40 Mineral oil on GS150R

            Usage Statistics:

            Top Speed Reached: 121 KMPL (didint try to reach more, found it has enough power to do some more)
            Average Speed: 40 to 55 Kmph
            Riding Condition 95 % City rest 5% High way.
            Usage Pattern [load]: [Family] with Wife and kid and most of the times driving along with kid only.

            Mileage:

            Lower Mileage 48 kmpl
            Top Mileage 61 Kmpl
            Average Mileage 55 Kmpl
            Petrol Used 95 % Shell

            First 2000 Kms it was cool gear change and engine sound is wow great
            no issues at all.
            What happen after 2000 Kms :
            Even after 2000 Kms its good some times gear changing is bit hard and today i found engine is not getting cooled down faster as it happened earlier during the first 2000 kms

            For typical city office / Family commuting you know GS is the Best among all 150Cc and i would say Motul is best oil to get best performance out of our Beast.

            Question For you all?

            I am with Motul 3000T 20W -40 Mineral oil even after crossing 2400 kms shall i keep it till 3000 K or do you have some advice for me

              maybe.......also you would using higher fuel to run an engine which is still yet to come to terms with its activity.

                • @Maestro........with the stock exhaust on........you will pump some 15.2bhp out of it,still good.........it will show in top speed and acceleration.

                  @MSN1.......change the oil now,longer times in cooling down of engine........is showing the age of the oil.

                    White halogen is useless. If you want to stick to halogens only, do some load shedding, disconnect the pilot lamps and add 55/60 Osram silverstar bulb. But the best bet is to add HID only.

                        Change the oil..
                        as mentioned by you cooling time is increased it;s better to change now.
                        I am also using the same oil but i used to change oil after 2000KM...
                        even if it is some what brown in colour..

                          Anything is possible, but it's too much of a headache. If you know electronics, then proceed. Don't trust local mechanics on this.

                          HID for pilot lamp Pilot lamps can have LED not HID.

                          HID will eat up battery in City, use LED pilot lamps in city, and HIDs on highways, or use in city with caution. Don't use horns/self starter much when you use HID.

                            Hey thanks for the reply.... That is my mistake saying HID instead of LED....anyways do you have any idea of LED lights price .....

                            • First long ride on my GSR. from bangalore to vellore. approx 450 km. top speed 123 kmph on flat road. but i noticed 1 weird thing. I left bangalore with 2 bars of fuel and it went to reserve after 60 km. i filled tank ie. 15 litres. went to vellore and came back and now its shows 1 bar. Wtf is happening ? i was cruising at 100 kmph though. Is there a style of riding i should adapt to get more mileage on long ride with good cruising speeds? I filled shell the first 2 times. this time i dint find shell so HP.
                              All peace Bro. xD
