GS is less smoother than uni by all means!!!!!!!
zeus and heat both are good bikes by suzuki........
people are quite satisfied with them

someone asked that isint it rare to see GS... mean seen very less on streets...... but i am starting to see them..... quite less in no( one everyday ) but its starting to sell FINALLY
i saw one in a bad color didnt like it.....
but today saw one in black on side stand........ it looks sexy man!!!!

man o man,,,,,,,, if only suzuki could remove some roughness of GS and make it a bit lighter and make brakes more nice,,,,, and prolly add monoshocks............ lol
ignoring the last thing......... this would have been an unbelievable bike man....... if it wud have costed some 5k more also for this thingies
( including monoshocks )
i wud go out n pay.............

@shadow
good pics

hw much is the intensity of the vibs??
is it low.... medium ???
mean does it shake ur bike ? if yes then how much
i mean is it uncontrollable

and u also said in traffic its a bit difficult ......
is it a headache sort or manageable .........

what r u GS owners gonna do when suzuki stops producing the bike and its parts? Sorry to ask a question like this but i have seen only 3-4 GS bikes till now in bhubaneswar. And from other's posts, it seems that the bike isnt selling atall...
So, most probably suzuki is gonna stop its production.

honda was selling 40k units of eterno per year..... still they stopped its production coz it didnt meet their expectations
activa and unicorn are sold in lakhs per years

now among the three zuki bikes....... zeus and heat are selling!!!
but GS is just started,,,,, i have seen 4 bikes till now
saw 2 in last two days!!
and wud u believe
its one of the biggest dealers here,,,,,,,, in quite a large area
course there wud be smaller dealers also,,,,,,, who wud get it distributed from the big guy

and the asst manager told me that they sold nearly 50 units in my surrounding
but i ve seen only 4

so if it does not meet their expectations..... and they think that it was not their fault,,,, everything was rite
then production will stop
otherwise they may come out with an upgrade,,,,,,,,
zuki are not a company acc to me who will give up so easy.,,,,,
so let the owners enjoy n stop worrying about its fate

@joy_tilak: Whenever any company launches a new product, they are bound to give the customers spares&service support for atleast 15 years. So, GS owners can be in peace. I am also using a TVS Fiero F2 since the last 5 years, its production stopped a couple of years back. I am still getting all the spares&service backup, no difference even though production has stopped.

Thanx bro for complement.

The intensity of roughness is getting low, more I ride at variable speeds. The engine parts of new bike are I think hard. I mean when they rub & touch each other, we feel its rough. They need to get polish & mate with each other. So after riding more by strictly following break-in instructions, parts will get soft or polished and that roughness will be gone as in case with Alkemyst. A newbie won't even notice it. And dude, when I say roughness, I don't mean earthquake...!!! How can it be uncontrollable or shake?? ????
If u ever come to Pune in "Peth" areas, u will now its even difficult to ride cycle or walk. Its headache bcos of the ppl and bad roads, not bcos bike is heavy.

Seriously if u doubt, don't go for it. what GS owners gonna do ?? we will be still flying in heaven...

Question to owners-
***Im confused with that Trip A and Trip B. Can somebody elaborate ?
***Can ODO be reset to zero ?

I am in some confusion of colors. I am planning to buy GS150R very soon, but unsure as to which color to go for. Orange looks good, but I saw one faded orange GS in front of Swargate suzuki, and frankly I was shocked!

Other color in my list is Blue green. This color looks good. Not as loud as attractive as orange, but certainly seems different. WHich color would you prefer in these two (Strictly no black or gray please).

My favorite is the Grey, but since you have ruled it out, I would suggest the Orange, as touching up the Blue Green could become an issue due to double color. Face it, this is India&vehicles are very prone to scratches. Orange would be much easier to touchup.
Yes, Orange&red are more prone to fading when exposed to sunlight continuously compared to darker colors, but this can be avoided by regular polishing&cleaning. I suggest you get a teflon coat asap&continue coating it every 4-5 months. Don't park it too much in the sun&you should be fine.

@animeher
I own an Orange one. Green also looks gr8. I'm not for the Blue.
sorry I meant the Gray and not green.

@shadowFax
A trip meter is just to know how far the bike has travelled for a ride. It can be reset for different rides. There are 2 trip meters A and B. Somewhere i have read that we can use one between fuelling and the other for rides. But Its all your choice; you could very well use both for different kinds of trips

I dont think the ODO can be reset.

In my bike, I use one tripmeter when I tank up&the other when it comes into reserve, since the R15's creates a reserve meter which comes into reserve automatically&it is not at all accurate (disappears sometimes when the bike is tilted/switched off) so I don't rely on it&use the 2nd tripmeter instead.
For long rides also I use the 2nd tripmeter.

Sorry dude but Im not clear. Acc to me,

ODO, Trip A and Trip B all 3 record kilometer covered right ? Is,

ODO = Trip A + Trip B ????

How is the convenience increased by Trip A & B ???

Lemme clear this one:
1. Odometer is the total distance covered by the bike. It cannot be reset by you.
2. There are 2 tripmeters, which can be reset as&when you want it.
So, people use it to calculate distances, I use it to calculate how much my bike clocked on a full tank of fuel.
So, Odo is never equal to Trip A+B.
Hope its clear now? If you have a doubt, try it out-no harm!

u got it all wrong.. there is no mathematical relation among these 3..
for ex.. when u start from ur home for ur office/college and u want to know wats the exact distance of it from ur home, u can reset(set it to 0) TRIP A.. reaching office u can check how many kms it is and then u can again reset it which will not affect TRIP B reading..
if on the way, ur bike comes in reserve and u want to know how much it will run till the tank dries up.. u reset the TRIP B..
and the ODO will be displayin the total distance ur bike has covered..
got it?


n ya.. i never had a unicorn.. rode it for few days however.. cant recollect how it used to be.. but i think no point comparing these 2, enjoy the ride.. thts all

I am still undecided abt the color! Let's see which gets finalized, orange or blue green.

One news to share with all of you. Those who are saving up for the bike (like me) have some good news. HDFC and Suzuki have come up with this scheme, and it's open only for a month.

HDFC will give max 80% of the loan, 20% of the bike cost + 1st EMI + 2% processing charge will be your initial down payment. In this down payment, Suzuki and HDFC will together give 2000rs discount. The rate of interest is 8.25% p.a. and the tenure is of 3 years.

In Pune, GS150R costs 67,570 on road (Kothrud Suzuki). Bank will give 80% loan, ie 54056. Initial payment will be 20% cost + EMI + processing charges - 2000rs = 13514 + 1081 + 1873 - 2000 = 14468. After that, monthly payment for next 35 months is 1873rs. The interest rate is 8.25% p.a. If you want to close the loan, you have to pay 2% on outstanding loan.

I think this is a good scheme, especially considering the interest rate. I got this quote from Kothrud suzuki, who told that this scheme is started just from yesterday. I have an excel sheet ready for calculating how much should one pay for getting 1500rs EMI (Loan amount 64%) or 1000rs EMI (Loan amount 43%) etc. If you want that sheet, do let me know, I will upload it. I am getting more details today.

i will suggest - orange.. i have seen blue-green on the road and trust me, the color wasnt doing justice to the bike's looks at all..

the EMI thing is a very good option, but do read the minute details and *(star) marked things before getting into it..

Ahhh..... all right ! thanx for explaining. Means whatever is recorded on Trip A/B is added in ODO, right ?

That is cool scheme man.. Btw I got from Kothrud Suzuki @ 67,165/-.. they told u 67,570 ?? they are offering anything more accessory ? from where u're buying ? Swargate or kothrud ?
