    Oh, actually, going by these standards, the GS is as good as the CBR250R itself.

    On another note, it seems that youre taking too many stabs at things without experiencing it first hand. Was that castor oil comment directed at GT oil? Have you tried it at all?

            But the tank will be drained if the knob is not closed.

                  Absolutely not.....even slight dislocation of the pistons will jam the brake assembly...........get it rectified as soon as possible....

                  And how did it happen?

                  • rode bike after delivery

                    After taking the delivery on 1st Dec, today I took the ride for almost 20 kms and what a pleasure i had.. After the ride i was satisfied that I has made the best decision to pick GS..All the way riding I was comparing with discover 135 and pulsar 150 and was assured that it is extreme comfortable than those..(no offence meant to bajaj owners as I have ridden only those two bikes earlier)

                    Only thing was bothering that I have habit of sometime clinging to front brakes alone, the feel I use to get in bajaj bike i.e immediate response I am unable to get that, neverthless when both the brakes applied simultaneously the bike came to halt immediately.. I have to get it used to that.. Overall fantastic experience..Hoping it will satisfy me in my daily office travel of 50 kms.

                      It happened while removing the bolt (torsional failure) and today i used my bike but without using the front brake at all completely depending on the bad rear brake

                      • Don't use only front brakes.....as if in any case you need to swerve the wheel might just get lock and skid along.....also......even a car is not comfy for a 50km drive in Mumbai......:-P

                          Yeah dude i am not at all using it for the time being and i am unable to find the bolts in work shop itself have to try local automobile shops and i have a small doubt can we fix new brake pads in it by ourself (diy job) or should i go to local mechanic shop for fixing new brake pads

                            • Hi All,

                              Today I Test Ride the Suzuki GS150R. Good pickup and very smooth engine.
                              I felt hard to change the gear may be I need to use to it. I thought the handling will not be very good, but after I rode this bike my thought has been changed. Very nice handling I was easily able to manage the traffic without any extra effort. Don't even feel that the bike is heavier one while riding. Feeling like driving a big bike. Very comfortable seating also seating position is good. Very nice engine, pulls the bike like a champ. I easily able to go in 30km/h in 6th gear with no hiccups at all. Over all I satisfied with the bike, so immediately I booked a white color GS150r. Actually I went to the showroom just to test ride the bike, I don't even had the thought to book, but once I test ride the bike I amazed, so immediately I booked one. Waiting for my angel. Thanks all of u for your valuable inputs.
                              All for the best!! Just Go Ahead!!

                                you are correct Maestro, but 50 km drive I meant almost 10 km on city roads and 40 on highway i'e' from airoli link road to Belapur via Palm beach road..since the roads are good with less traffic in morning shall enjoy the ride..however in evening that shall not be the case..comfort in the sense i had driven on my previous discover 135 continuously 4 days on the above route and my arms and shoulders were paining for next four days
