      The first impressions done by the high end moderators are quite in-depth and informative.. if we can match that level then i dont think the moderators will have any problems with it..

        • Well, I dont own a GS 150R but as am with a Suzuki Dealer so I happen to ride GS 150R quite often.
          Last evening I took the GS for a short spin and I tried to see the best and the worst of it.
          My observations are:
          No doubt its butter smooth even in comparison to Hondas( I own a 2007 Zma with 35k on Odo)
          the low end is good, six speed definitely smoothens the ride to a great extent.
          The acceleration was Decent enough, not mind blowing.
          Braking was good, no issues with a rear Brakes.
          Top Speed thus attained was 114 on the speedo. the 0-80 was good, 80-95 was decent. 95-100 was sluggish and it took ages to cross the three figures, 114 was attained after ages.
          seating was more comfortable in comparison to Zma,and the bike was a Darling to take to cornors, loved those foot peg scrapping turns.

          all in all, it is a good 150ccbike for 60k.
          Its not about the BHP or the CC, its about one common religion called Biking!!!

          Save the Tigers! Only 1411 (excluding ME) are left!

          • so whats the ownership count at now ? i believe there was a running count that was being maintained. any official sales numbers / figures from suzuki. would really help to get an idea of how this bike is moving.

            congrats to all the new owners of the GS150 happy and safe riding !!! cheers !!!!
            There once was a woman who was quite begat.
            She had three babies named Nat, Pat, and Tat.
            She said it was fun in the breeding,
            But found it was hell in the feeding
            When she saw there was no tit for Tat.

            • full tank

              Finished 1550km on odo fill the tank to full before 360km,after 360km only one bar reduced from full.....
              as imjoshee told "Walk down to a HH spares shop and buy the bulb. Make sure it is Philips & is made in Germany. It costs Rs 95 there. With Honda I think it costs Rs 160!!!"
              I went to honda show room and ask for orginal bulb for honda unicorn, he showed me osram 12 35/35 when i ask for philips made in germany original spare,he told that bulb come only with bike,if u want spares then they give osram only .... so disappointed, How is osram bulb 12w 35 /35????

                  i never meant to say go find out your own answers ......
                  i was trying to say
                  if you go to the showroom or shop and ask
                  you will get better information because those guys can always give complete and more info than us

                  please ...... i never intend to be rude to anyone........
                  neither i like to be
                  if anytime you feel wronged......... ask me straight away
                  i ll explain
                  much better way than fighting i guess
                  lets get over this


                  guys do you think coil rewinding may do the work?
                  i mean generally people do coil rewinding ..... addition with new rectifier n some more things
                  and then people add 55W/60W bulb and dual horns
                  gs does not need the latter part

                  but surely i think it would void warranty thou
                  what u think?
                  Hope is a good thing ,
                  may be the best of things and
                  no good thing ever dies .

                  • ohh just went outta mind

                    even after all that........ the reflectors might not be able to take the toll


                    i dont like the suzuki attitude man
                    if you ask anyone on website...... i mean honda , yamaha , bajaj
                    they reply either by phone or email
                    but suzuki has no time to do it

                    and we talk about dealerships spoiling the name of the company

                    @ bubbly

                    what happened ?
                    i mean gs owners from your showroom were supposed to meet some foreign experts rite?
                    any inputs?
                    Hope is a good thing ,

                      it will be LED AFAIK.. i remember reading it somewhere on apache rtr thread.. or maybe in LET THERE BE LIGHT thread.. some guy made this whole setup with few white LEDs for his bike and he gave a picture by picture demo of HOW TO in tht thread..



                      @maniac - nice to see u back.. i thought u took all tht to ur heart.. :P

                                osram is a good company
                                zma owners use osram mostly i think i mean the 55/60W version
                                but which model you talking about?
                                which osram are you talking about?
                                osram has different model like nightbreaker, etc
                                ask him and then ask in the light thread about it
