Saxena your hunt for new machine is getting more n more difficult.

Just look both machines closely, if possible test ride them & pick one that suits you best.

Sorry buddy, I typed those last 2 lines in a hurry in the last 2 minutes before my meeting. I meant to say overall Maintenance costs will be lesser due to lower costs of consumables&spares. Mileage&power will be more compared to the Honda.

Coming to the gizmos, don't think that a digital meter gets spoilt by rains. I'm using the R15 since a year&its always out in the open. Nothing ever happened to the meter. Same applies for LED taillamps. The packing material used in all bikes is good&doesn't allow any water to seep through.
Inspite of this, if you face a problem with the lights/meters, you can claim a warranty replacement in the warranty period. I have heard of very few defective cases though. If you are looking at 5-6 years, then I don't think the resale would be much of a concern to you. If you have good Suzuki SVC in your area, I say go for GS! Its worth it!
Hope I cleared my point!

yes sir you cleared your point and make me confused again

because as i am thinking after reading your comment to buy GS150R.yea its more difficult now for me to get one in straight.
well i will ride,but i saw in other thread that only by riding few km u can't decide bike is good or not for long period of time,as some bike take time and some bike went down with time.
in one comment i read honda badge yeah it feels like security something thats another reason i was thinking to go with unicorn,but now again i am there where i started to choose between them.
hmm i have time till 1 october,before that i have to bought bike for college.

I guess GS would be the one for you!

Hahahahha! Don't worry, both are very good bikes&you can't go wrong with any of them. Just let your heart decide! If I were in your place, I would have thought in this way, assuming both the Japs are of top-notch quality&you don't have a particular brand affinity:
1. I would always prefer a new product in market compared to an old one, but not as soon as it is launched to see if it proves itself, which the GS has done.
2. Overall VFM as both are approximately the same price I would consider the marginal power&features difference.
3. Cost of spares.
All of the above point to the GS!
I would have gone for the GS unless I'm a Honda lover.

Thanks a lot to xBhp community as due to wise opinions i today bought hondan unicorn after a long search and i am very happy with new bike

I never thought i will buy unicorn as i didn't know honda has such a best bike,i was only thinking about those 4 which i listed in mine first post.
So basically due to xbhp i knew that unicorn is best in all.

a lot mind game went in mine head between unicorn vs GS150R,but due to some reason i thought to go with unicorn.

Now what precaustion should i take with in first month before 1st service time,i already know that i have to ride bike within 50KM/S.any other precaustion?

btw i will submit pic of metallic black uni soon

No man .. still no buy .. lately had some health problems, was out of country, was with family for some time and now busy with work .. going out of country again

.. so in all couldn't finalize/buy one. Best part though is that through out I was enjoying xBhp thread and industry development.
Though I almost zeroed in(not literally

- may be three'ed in) to RTR FI/RTR 180/R15. And after Diwali I hope to get a good time off the work and trips -- so hopefully then I'll test ride R15 and book one of the above three. Any suggestions in this regard are most welcome -- please PM me as I don't want this thread to be taken over by me.

Congrats

nsaxena : Congrats on becoming a wing rider !!

**sarbanoxley** · 09-14-2009, 02:19 PM

Congo man keep the Rpm below 5000.Change the oil @ 100Kms again change it @300.Remember to clean the oil filter each time.When you ride keep varying the RPM do not ride it for long .Give breaks in between to cool the engine.When you start the bike in the morning before turning the ignition ON kick the bike 2-3 times .And then let it idle for @ least 30 seconds before you ride

.

**adnansanni** · 09-17-2009, 12:45 AM

Could you clear me about the clean the oil filter each time? Where should I locate it on unicorn?

**nsaxena** · 09-19-2009, 10:11 PM

thanks guys

i want to ask some questions also,
uni pick up 50kmph speed very fast but after that its like not going up speed as usual,55 kmph hardly and i didn't touch 60 yet,i know its new bike so i don't need to go above 50,but mine question is that after 1st service can i ride above 50 and also it will pick speed after 50kmph fast like get 60-70 after 1st service?
also from showroom they lock speed around 50kmph by petrol control method so that air pass but no burst of petrol as they limit petrol supply so that new bike will not go 50kmph speed?
how fast uni can ride,they say 101kmph is fastest,but in real condition normal one what highest speed uni can get?

till the first service atleast,don't cross 4-5k RPM which is pretty much the same for all the bikes in running period...ie don't rev the engine hard and stress it.Topspeed....around 110kmph on straights(no slopes etc etc) it is i guess but anything above that is speedo error...

**pravinan** · 11-23-2011, 08:14 PM

xtreme rocks

my pick would the cbz xtreme...3 years of ownership with 27000kms on the odo..relaible bike..less maintianice...street dog pick up..only apache 160 rtr equals it in speed...LIVE OFF THE EDGE...regarding maintan speeds between 50 and 60..shit gears around 2 to 5..don't rev it upto redline..u will get 40 to 50..my best is 51 and my worst is 37 when i rode like a lunatic...
