Did u meant the SF lower fairing part as the Suzuki OEM engine guard..??

I didn't mean the Gixxer SF lower fairing part..but you can install that too!...The OEM Engine Guard of the Gixxer Naked is a Fibre Sheet which is fixed to the Crash Guard!
No need of welding...It can be installed by screws..as i stated before there is an empty slot for the screw!
----consecutive posts auto-merged-----
U can refer the post #3749 on 375 PG where i have stated the solution for this!..I had faced the same issue before but now it's solved...without replacement!
Thanks for pointing the exact post and will give it a try to see if it help resolve the issue.
My friend who owns a Gixxer had tried 3M additive for engine oil...which lasts for 1000kms...he said there is a bump in performance and also a drastic increase in mileage!

Welcome. Yes! also specified as safety for beginners in first few pages of the manual in how to start the engine/bike section. I hope people actually read the manual book before doing pooja and filling petrol to new bikes [emoji14] [emoji14] generally telling. Maybe that would reduce the number of posts considerably in the thread [emoji14]

Since you have got the bike serviced recently, there would not be any issues considering this is a new bike.
Before long trips, check for any unusual sounds from the bike when running in city conditions, check tyre pressure and also physically inspect both they tyres to see if it has any lumps or damage to it. Check engine oil level, front disc brake oil level and top up/refill if necessary. If you will be riding at night, check if the lights and indicators are working fine. Clean and lube the drive chain. This is very important.
This bike is an absolute delight on the highways once the engine warms up to highway temperatures! You can easily cruise between 80 to 90 kmph without straining the bike and expect good mileage figures too. Yesterday I rode 365 kms straight with a tankful and I expect it to run another 100 kms atleast before the fuel level hits reserve.
As for riding tips, first and foremost is believe in yourself that you can do it. Riding on highways is no rocket science but you have to be extra careful because it isn't the same as riding within city limits. Speeds are high, wind factor, bending roads, high speed vehicles overtaking you etc plus the possibility of village people and their cattles crossing the road without any warning will catch you off guard. Always be in control of your vehicle. Don't try to keep up with your friend (he seems more experienced) just because he is faster. Since this is your first long ride, being comfortable with the speed at which you think you have control over the vehicle is more important. Try to stick to the left most lane if it is a six lane highway.
