However,the rule of best cornering is,
Enter slow,exit fast............this helps in maintaining the correct line without going wide,most beautiful cornerings are not possible without some degree of countersteering.In case of cars it would have been brake and drift mid corner,but in case of a bike,braking should be done before entering a corner,while using the left over momentum to countersteer.

GSR's braking is very effective,but rear brake needs to be slammed down to be of any use.The front brake is real good.
Yesterday,while in a traffic light GP with a Karizma,the guy did have advantage of a bit more pick-up and moved its nose ahead of mine,but where he failed miserably is in the braking department............he braked first,hence slowing down earlier,I braked late and stopped safely after overtaking him and leaving a car in between us...........and at the next traffic light,I was gone without a trace.

GSR's confidence inspiring braking system makes it a superbly controlled two-wheeler indeed !!!!!

@Firegun

Welcome to GSpian community

.

Can you explain the problems you face in a detailed manner. Like when the sound is coming while riding the bike, idling, after stopping the engine etc and what kind of sound etc

.

@ Madhu

Thanks bro, but now I'm riding mostly in Eco mode . It seems like my outlook to riding is slowly changing by riding more. No wonder why experienced riders insist on riding safe.

Yeah its real fun to zig-zag bike in traffic, but the point i wanted to specify is doing so is momentarily making us vulnerable. You know it well rite whenever the tilt angle is more we wont be able to slow down as we would want in case of any emergency.

Unlike you I got bored with street brawls as I'm putting myself and the other rider in danger

. When ever I feels like being followed I would slow down and let the other pass. But the situation gets really worse when they would slow down and ask for a race

. I badly like to smoke them but as a member of xBhp I wont mind loosing a race than putting others in danger.

Sure thing,but I don't let inhibitions rust me,its India and skills are the only survival ingredients for me on these unruly roads.I am now a lot more composed and controlled than I was before.

I know one thing,
We must be aware of our skills and be a good psychologist of our surroundings,staying within limits is the best thing to go by and GS150R rises these limits

. By using the grip of tyre alone we can do such fancy maneuvers but in that position if we need to brake it will be really hard to keep bike in control . By anticipation we avoid excessive tilting and our pillion will feel much relaxed

.

Well i tried doing such things with GS and it handled awesome but due to excessive tilting the heel shifter bent inwards resulting in scratches on the foot rest stand.....

Bike runs exceptionally well on the highways, even on kasara ghat, could ride the bike in 4-5 gears. great bike, the most comfy of the current lot.
Kept a constant speed of 70-80kph 50% of the time. Amazing handling at highways. Fantastic tourer. Loved the experience. After yesterday's drive, plan to go for even longer drives on GSR.

Only wish the seats were a more softer. Butt is not in the best of shape after the long ride.

oh....great...GSR is an awesome blosom bike for highways.....havent you met gaon wala people in between asking you for mileage n stuff......i encountered some uncles and they were like....mast bike hai pickup bhi bhari hai......with these words i zoomed past them touching nearly 120kmph(with riding gears of course)

and stopped at the naka for a sugarcane juice and when i started the bike again after a 10 min stop they came and said "lay bhari"....i have done many trips with the stock seat covered with a fur with a lamination and best of luck for your longer drives....

You sure is an instinctive rider, I hope you will get more composed

with time.

@ Arul

Its really sad to know your experience, but never give up your hopes about the bike. Its a hazzle free value for money product. Report your issues to Service centre and if they are not taking necessary actions file a report on the link provided by the Madhu.

I havent heard about such an issue before. Around 3.5K rpm engine resonance can be found in new engines where we can feel a roughness and sound. BTW there will be some kind of bearing noise from primary sprocket . Check if the drive chain is well lubricated and set too tight.

@ Arul

as you can't access the site from mobile i did posted your complaint on the site which i mentioned earlier
i believe you purchased it from

Peak Automobiles India Pvt. Ltd.

did mentioned your mail id and phone number

the following is the message i posted there

╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠
Irritable noise from engine

When the throttle is above or close to 4000 Rpm some unusual noise is coming from engine (tested even in center stand the same noise is there)

Engine No.G423-146067,
Frame No. MB8NG49ALA8114001.
Approached service center they returned my bike with out fixing the issue

It looks like either a tappet noise or some noise from clutch (sure not from chain)
For sure it’s a noise from engine only

Even I did check and driven my friend’s GS150R that sounds good and this feel is there in my GS only

Requesting you to kindly help me on fix my issue

╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠╠

**Anupdas** · 11-29-2010, 12:29 AM

**mayur2j** · 11-29-2010, 01:12 AM

Today i had gone to svc for correcting some problems. There was some kinda noise coming from front so for test ride he rode the bike and i was sitting on rear side and he revolved so hard that he had gone almost at 10k rpm in 1st 2nd and 3rd gear. He knew that my bike has just covered 500 km still he drove at higher rpm i again told him that bike is still in run in period but he didnt stop. He drove bike in higher rpm for about 30 sec or more in total. Now i am concerned about my engine will it affect my engine? Before this i was driving below 4.5 k rpm.
