Hey guys was out of town with family n hence wasnt seen lurking around the forum... by the way a belated happy diwali to all my friends....

Sorry folks couldnt make it for the G2G since i had to leave the same day with my family for the trip... will definitely come nxt time

Ahem Ahem... the max i have achieved is 120Kph... i guess that puts me in a better position than ashoka_bnglr

Salee next time to mere ko mil tanmay.... u r in deep trouble buddy

anywayz a couple of mahabaleshwar pics with mine n Maestro's steed

sorry guys dunno why the images r not getting uploaded on xbhp anyway have pasted the album link

Hahaa.....lets see when we'll meet next time.....hopefully if its before the REVAL results.....because after that...SOMETHING COOKING

dO YA MEAN LIKE WHEN THE rocK SAYS: " IF YOU SMELLL...........THE ROCK IS COOKING" AHUH ?
DUDE RESPECT TO ALL YOUR RIDES I LOOK UPTO YOU I AM GONNA DO THAT ONE DAY . BE THERE TO SOLVE MY DOUBTS TC. I DONT EVEN KNOW YOU PERSONALLY,BUT I FEEL THAT I AM LOSING ON YOU GOING SOUTH. TC BRO RIDE SAFE

1. I don’t think it will solve the sound problem.
4. The rear brake shoes usually lasts more than 20 K kms but it depends the usage. See page 6-38 and 39 of the user’s manual to know how to check its wearing.


Maestro, Did you convert your bike to full DC?

yup....i converted it to full DC......now the projector mod in progress...will post once its completed.....

and those things worked for me hence i suggested......




@prathamesh........hahahaha by something cooking I meant a OUT OF THE BOX RIDE planned.......

Thanks for your concern.....will be there for Mumbaikars....afterall its just 12 hrs away.....

Nice. Please post the details about the gauge of the winding wire used, number of turns on each pole, the voltage output from the RR, wattage of the headlight bulb using etc together with pictures of the light.

Gauge:18
Number of turns: Dont know
Voltage outputont know(have to check)
Wattage of bulb:55W

Sorry for asking about it.

hehehe....no need to be sorry!!!!!

Hehehe. Then, withdrawn!

Provide pics boss

Moreover I have a mundane doubt .......yup but its still a doubt

Our headlamp is allowed only 35Watts of electricity from the connection at the armature coil,after repatching it to battery(DC conversion), I think it would still draw 35W of current for igniting the bulb.............so does a 55W bulb really works when the headlamp is allowed only 35W from circuit ???? I never understood this.

you really got me thinking dude!!!!!
will open the bike tomorrow an check out the circuitry and wiring!

Its my understanding that in stock setup 3 or 4 poles of the magneto are responsible for lighting the headlight and the parking lamps. 35 watts goes for the headlight and 10 watts goes for the pilots. But when you go for dc conversion, both wires from the magneto is connected to the battery and power to the headlight is drawn from the battery. So even if you use a 110 watt bulb it will work. Its another thing that the reflector may not see the light of day after its first use. It will most certainly melt.

Our stator coil is a single winding on 8 poles in case of old batch and 12 poles in case of later batch bikes.
The headlight in the stock setup is connected to a separate tap in the RR. The other two wires are connected to the battery.

It is difficult or almost impossible to use 100/110 watt headlight bulb, even after rewinding the coil as the total consumption becomes more than 200 watts which results more than 16 amperes. We cannot wind the coil with such a thick wire as it will touch the rotor.

Gear Ratio's

I purchased a White GS150R on Nov 1st and am very happy with it. Previous to the purchase, I searched for the Gear Ratio's of the bike and could not find it on the net anywhere. So I thought I would just post it in this thread. Hope nobody minds,

GEAR RATIOS OF SUZUKI GS150R
1st = 33/12 = 2.75
2nd = 29/15 = 1.93
3rd = 23/20 = 1.3
4th = 24/22 = 1.09
5th = 22/23 = 0.96
6th = 20/24 = 0.83

Primary Reduction ratio = 73/21 = 3.476

Now, entering these figures in Gearing Commander: Motorcycle Speed, RPM, Chain & Sprockets Calculator
I found that

For RPM 1000,2000,3000,4000,5000,6000,7000,8000,9000,10000 ,11000

1000 RPM
speeds in 1st gear - 4.3,
speeds in 2nd gear - 6.1,
speeds in 3rd gear - 9.1,
speeds in 4th gear - 10.9,
speeds in 5th gear - 12.4,
speeds in 6th gear - 14.2

10000 RPM

speeds in 1st gear - 43.1,
speeds in 2nd gear - 61.3,
speeds in 3rd gear - 91.1,
speeds in 4th gear - 108.6,
speeds in 5th gear - 123,
speeds in 6th gear - 142.1

" Speed at zero wind load and no road resistances maybe "
