Question 11

Q. Pros and cons in Apache 160 4v. I'm confused about Apache 160 4v and Suzuki gixxer naked bike. Plz help which is better for daily usage?

Answer

Definately gixxer can give you 2-3 kmpl more than apache but if you talk about performance..dude no one can beat apache 1604v....and seriously 2-3 extra km doesn't make much of a difference!

Answer

In daily usage Apache is best....

Answer

No doubt go for Apache

Question 12

Q. Honda hornet or Suzuki gixxer which one is the best???

Answer

As a gixxer owner I would suggest go for Hornet.Gixxer seat, both for rider and pillion is very uncomfortable due to the aggressive slant.Also, gixxer maybe more technically improved, it fails to be good in simple things. You will find that almost every gixxer owner is facing electric start issue.Coupled with that I am facing Gear position indicator issue along with self start problem since the day I have bought it.

Answer

If you don't want to compare the mileage with Maruti, then Hyundai is the best choice in the segment. Even the NVH levels of I20 are also the lowest for the segment

Answer

For Highway driving and Single rider, Gixxer is best. But for daily commuter purpose and City usage, Hornet is a better deal than Gixxer

Question 13

Q. Which is better Suzuki Gixxer ABS vs TVS Apache 160 4v?

Answer

Gixxer is in town since 4 years now.. Have owned it since then previously I owned rye 160fi was not happy with service cost.. It was too high are 2500 or 3000 and when it is less its still 1500 but when ever bike is serviced it felt like a new bike all together but in gixxer if you are not having any accident or major problem the average service cost is around 800 including engine oil well can't comment on rtr 1604v as it must have resigned engine than the previous model. But if you are looking a long term bike like more than 5 years or 10 years go with gixxer and if u change bike every 2 to 3 years go for Apache

Answer

Both are good, but TVS has better engine, turning in TVS is little more than Suzuki, but my overall experience with TVS is better, Suzuki seating was more comfy (Suzuki exp is only based on test ride) . I don't own a Suzuki so cant say about maintenance.

Answer

I think Apache 160 4 v is much better than Suzuki Gixxee ABS because it has more road presence than anyone.Apache has best resell value.Apache has best conosole.Apache has better sound, build quality everything is best.

Question 14

Q. Is there any issue with gear shifting on Gixxer? I heard lot that gear shifting is not that smooth on Gixxer as other competitors.

Answer

It's extremely hard when you first buy it even seems broken. Its done to stop you from riding it fast for first 5000 kilometres. At first service the staff will set it properly, so make sure you buy from the best Suzuki dealer in your area. Else skip it altogether.

Answer

There is no problem with the gear shifting after first service. For new bike, use clutch for every gear shift when shift to downwards/upwards. If gear doesn't shifts downwards then release the clutch and again press. It works. Downshifting 2-3 gears in a single clutch press feels hard. But after 1st service, gear shifting will be very smooth.

Answer

It gets stuck between 2&3 very often when new. But ride it anyway and it will become usable by around 5000 km. check with service center staff, they say the same.

Question 16

Q. What is the difference between ABS single channel and double channel - Gixxer (2014-2018)?

Answer

Hi Himanshu, i understand your concern. Let me be straight forward. Safety is better than anything else. In today’s traffic and the way people ride. Its always better to have a bike with ABS enabled so that you don’t skid and fall at times of emergency braking.

Answer

Single channel abs work only in front wheel and double channel abs work both the front and back wheels double channel abs is better than single channel abs.

Answer

I am skinny type guy. Buying a royal Enfield is a good option or go with gixxer sf??

Answer

Answer

It completely depends on your balancing skills...and the bike is quite balanced

Question 18

Q. Pros and cons of Suzuki gixxer and Honda hornet 160r and which bike is better for daily usage

Answer

Pros and Cons of Gixxer as I own it.Engine performance is really good. Weight is less in comparison and thus it is light and nimble with good grip. Mileage which I get is 52 Kmpl and that includes both highway and city ride of 20 kms a day. Maintaining a bike is easy as it costs only 400 bucks per service except engine oil change. Gixxer is shorter hence benefits the driver of less height and it might be an issue for people with height 6 feet or more.This is it! My take will be Gixxer for city and Hornet for highway riding.It would be better if you take the test rides if available.

Answer

Gixxer is better for riding and hornet for honda's reliability and smooth engine

Answer

Gixxer not for daily base used

Question 19

Q. Is gixxer suitable for tall riders?

Answer

Yes it suits also for tall bikers but bit more good for normal height people

Question 20

Q. How is the bike? and major problems - Gixxer (2014-2018)?

Answer

Bike is good. But pillion seat is smaller, also oil leaks from magneto rubber are the major problems.We can make a better seat locally and fix the oil leak and the bike just rocks

Answer

Some face difficulties in gear changing which can be corrected by replacing the gear lever spring as I did recently at authorized service station. Otherwise no problems

Answer

Bike is awesome in performance and mileage. Engine oil leak is the only problem I had faced in last two years. But it never affected the performance until now.

Question 21
