    Nope this was not the first time and I have been to a 600+ trip last month and was able to feel the vibes that time as well but this time I felt them strongly. May be because of its vibe free nature below 50???
    Odo reads 1300 kms after last oil change..Total odo is 7300kms

    Vibe-free(less than what I feel @3.8xx RPM) 70-80 kmph ride is absolute serenity..
    That resonance vibrations comes @3.5k rpm precisely and disappears

    Even at the beginning itself I mentioned some vibes past 50kmph and Vishnu suggested to replace the visor nuts.
    I asked the svc and they found one faulty visor nut and replaced.
    Then the vibes have reduced..May be its time to replace all 4 of them at once..

      now we know, it's anti-vibe before 4k RPM and rest of bike after 5K RPM that goes into resonance kidding

      hope they'll address it in next service...

        I started this poll after seeing the example from R15 thread

        Is there any way to regulate the poll ?

        I see no way and so am unregistering from it

        Vishnu :
        Unfortunately, GS is an underestimated bike. The sole responsibility of it goes to Suzuki. Compare it with other bikes here.

        How do you get details of other Indian bike for a comparison

            even greater, if they make it twin cylinder(or twin spark, whatever they call it) and take it head on with Ninja-250...

            what would it look like...?

              No one here has complained about 30-34 kml FE. So, closing that poll is better.

              • @Sparkot: Twin spark is different from twin cylinder. Jabaj Palser is twin spark but not twin cylinder. Ninja250 is twin cyl but not twin spark. Ducati multistrada is both twin cyl and twin spark.

                Twin cyl = 2 cylinders
                twin spark= 2 sparkplugs

                It would probably look like a gsxr250. ....oops this is overkill.

                  yeah, reading some stuff pertaining to it...

                  next year we'll have Moto3 Class for 250cc bikes. It'll bring out some interesting models in that segment...

                    That website mentions that production was stopped in 1990!! But if it resumes, it can make a comeback like Rajnikant.
                    Mind it.

                        There goes my second vote for above 70 kmpl

                        If you find my actions questionable then do you think this survey is believable?

                        at least they should have provided some option to see poll from

                            • Today, another record in my bike FE..
                              Got the highest approximate FE from my bike..
                              Got 61kmpl from an avg spd of 60+ (55 to 70kmph) with less clutch usage through city & highway.. Yesterday got 57kmpl with a pillion at the same avg spd...

                              Getting a good riding experience from my bike...
                              From yesterday onwards I moved on to normal riding mode, the so called NO LED BLINK MODE...
