    Well there were 4 of them.. 2 guys were getting the feedback...2 guys were test driving the bike and checking for the defects (these 2 guys are actually engineers from suzuki).....

    I told them abt the braking, headlight and resonance at 3.5k rpm things.... They noted them down... They test drove my bike and wrote down the feedback that i gave... Actually japanese are not so good in english... It took a long time for me to explain the things to them... They told me that they will get back to me in 2 weeks with the issues

    And they gave me a t-shirt and a parker pen as compliment
    i like the t-shirt and pen part
    Hope is a good thing ,
    may be the best of things and
    no good thing ever dies .

    Get busy living or get busy dying .

          What i heard was these guys are on a All-India tour... They were in Andhra pradesh before coming to chennai... I think they would have completed Mumbai's feedback... But they are selecting only one showroom in a city

              Any car shampoo would do the job, avoid using Shampoos used for hair!

                  I have reported about low mileage issue, the service head 4 india promised me that he will personally tweak my bike on his next visit..
                  Seems to be like Suzuki is more confident about this bike and trying to serve their customers based on their feedbacks.

                    one thing before i say anything
                    i like your signature

                    friends........ dont go completely with the magazines or website thingies
                    you should experience things yourself

                    and whats the actual need of comparing
                    i mean....... if new pulsar is worst......... gs is bad
                    but in the end its bad na,.,,,,,,
                    and after all you will not have a happy experience
                    many people here dont find the brakes adequate
                    ( just an example to explain things )
                    hope sam does not see this

                    PS : no advice or nasehat
                    just my opinion

                      or rather they are not happy with the sales at the moment and they want to remove those bugs ,........ and present a new gen model soon

                          • Have any of you tried to fix the pulsar's / CBZ-X's split grab rails on your GS ? I'm not sure if they could be fitted in without any mods. Personally feel the pulsar's grab rails would deffo give a new look to the GS.

                            • My ownership experience update :-

                              Its 205 km on odo. I will change headlight next week. Those 3.5k vibes sometimes come, sometimes don't at all come. Im feeling engine is little more louder than GS's other competitors. On slope the bike "actually glides"... but on ascending road, roughness is bit disappointing. But I think this is normal with every bike. Its just my mind playing games... Under 5k rpm at 50-55 kmph its avaragely smooth. Im satisfied. Still too far from 1st service, I think I shd not even look a bit beyond 5k rpm. Rest other things are perfectly fine.
