My gixxer my ride

5 years ago by Palash Mandal8,665 views

I bought my gixxer sf rear disc variant few months back in january 2017.Ever since i bought this bike the most striking thing everybody noticed was its visual appeal.It looks much bigger and expensive bike than it actually is.It has beat in class comfort with nature of a sports touring motorcycle.Without going too much deep here lets directly talk about its pros and cons..

1.Advantages:-it has superb road presence and it turn heads almost everywhere on road and people of all age groups seem to have a keen interest in it.

It has a upright seating posture without aggressive sporty stance which helps you for touring for long distances without ending up with a sore and numb back.

Its very agile and could be used for daily commuting through city traffic.

. It have ample amount of power lower down the rev range which helps you to rip through the traffic.

. It hardly has any vibrations at higher speeds and feels very refined and smooth on highways.

. All these qualities makes it superb bike for weekend touring.

2.Disadvantages:-breaking abilities on this bike could have been much better than it is.

. The biggest drawback of this bike is the small pillion seat.The room for pillion is limited and so its becomes uncomfortable for pillion on long rides.

. The headlights are poor and very ineffective in dark.The company should consider improving the headlamps to improve visibility in bad weather conditions and at night.

Final verdict:-overall it is a value for money product as it is the cheapest fully faired bike in india.So if you are looking for a stylish commuter bike with all modern amenities under a limited budget then this is the one motorbike you must be looking forward to ...

Hope my review proves helpful for all

of those looking forward to buy this bike..Thank you..

Best bike in this segment but after sales service is poor. Mileage and power is quite good. Spare parts and maintenance is on the lower side. Chain sprocket lasts 30k kilometers. Power and handling is absolutely great. Breaking is pretty good . I owned single channel abs model with fuel injector. Very refined engine.

4Loving suzuki gixxer sf as my first bike 2 years ago by Prasanth

I had bought suzuki gixxer sf abs on 15 august 2017. The riding experience in city traffic perfectly smooth and comfortable and on highways the bike manages excellent upto 100 speed and the engine cools really well as i rode this bike without stopping for 210kms in a ride. The gear shifting is smooth and engine sound also smooth in high speed rides. This gives upto 47-50kms\lt mileage on highway and 43-45 kms\lt in city. The servicing and engine oil can be changed after every 3000-4000kms upto which the engine oil is perfectly smooth. Cons - the concerns i feel are view mirrors which cannot be used in traffic conditions as are lengthy and rear suspension which can be better for long rides.

I bought suzuki gixxer sf matt triton blue from bharat suzuki pune. Pros.1.Good machine, engine performance is remarkable. 2.No heating issue up to 40k after that slight heating was started from engine side. 3.Riding position 4.Gear ratio 5.Good aerodynamic design. Cons: 1. Tight gear shaft, painful gear shifting. If the clutch wire is little loose then it is horrible to change the gear. 2.Oil leakage through magnetic coil wire. They first replaced the cover.It costs around 250 rupees,but it was not stopped. Then i changed magnetic coil (rs 1600). After 100 km again restarted the same problem. After watching a youtube video i applied some gasket maker on the part , then only it stopped.3.Spare part availability is very poor in our area. My front break disc was damaged and purchased new one. When the mechanic started to changing it he said that your mc kit and wheel cylinder kit should be replaced then only we can fix the issue permanently. I inquired in three authorized showrooms in my area and all of them said that part is not available here. Then i searched on local market their also it was not available. Then i tried mc kit with pulsar 180 spare and caliper piston with cb shine, both works fine in gixxer sf. I ordered these parts in bharat suzuki they said that it take 2 weeks to reach the item. After 2 weeks i called them , but again they needed one more week. At last i received a message that my parts are came. I visited showroom and told them that i need only wc kit , they gave me one piston with o rings. After that they arranged one more pistons after three days. Total 25 days for a small spare part. 4.During rain water will enter through tank cap. It will cause corrosion inside water tank . Check frequently. 5.Switch quality is below average. 6.Handle bar is not good. The side stand is too straight. Bike fell down many times due to this height of side stand. All these times handle bar gets some damage and its quality is very bad. 7. Seat comfort is not up to the mark. Especially pillion seat. Pillion will feel discomfort even after 20km ride.Rider can enjoy 60 km continuous ride easily.8.Spare parts rates are similar to royal enfield parts. Average life of some parts: 1.Chain sprocket-13000-16000km. 2.Front disc pad-15000km. 3.Clutch cable-22000km. 4. Accelarator cable-20000km 5.Mrf tyres -25000k. 6.Engine oil-4500km. 7.Cone set-25000km.

This bike is good in all respect according to price, breaking system and speed control is quite awesome among 150 cc other bikes. Mileage on long drives is 45-46 km/l and in local areas mileage reduces to 40 km/l I have ridden this bike at the top speed of 122,Fiber body part, so it requires high maintenance and servicing in every 3 months.

Bike is worst on my opinion. Starting from buying, sales manager give false commitment on 1st day. Handle & side stand problem face on first ride to till. Salesman promise not complete till date. Now, starting facing servicing problem, i trying 3 service center of suzuki but every place no good mechanic & supervisor found. They doing the job 3rd class. They remain left the specify job also. Only time waste and money waste. This bike cost definitely cheap to other company bike on this segment, but faced to cry after that.

Its a visor bike.And it has a good speedometer where its shows the number of gear you applied in the bike so it's a great feature for new biker.

1) it's fine.2) riding wise, it's handling is superb...Awesome bike with respect to handling.3) good look with low cost. But the engine performance is worst.4) more servicing centers are available, but only 1 or 2 are providing good service. Rest all are not even responding for customer presence.5) milage is fine, i'm getting 45 to 50 kmph on highways and 40 to 45 kmph in city. Handling wise no other bike in this cost will beat this bike. Seating comfort is excellent, you can go for long rides without any hassles. Engine needs improvement, it's like 100cc or 125cc bike.
