Suzuki Gixxer (2014-2018) Service User Reviews

I think this is the right time for me to post my review after running my Gixxer SF for 4000+ kms. I had used to bike for long drives (400km in a day) like twice in a month and also I"m using for my regular office commute. This is the best bike I ever got. I"m 6.2" inch tall and I never felt small sitting on this bike. Tucking is not a problem. In my earlier bike rides (discover, pulsar, hero, honda etc) I used to get severe backpains. But, surprisingly I never got back pain even during long drives except for neck sores due to helmet and continuous focus on straight in high ways. Sitting is comfortable. Mileage is good. I get around 40km in highways and I never bothered checking in cities. What is the use of checking after I purchased? :P I initially had plans to get RE thunderbird 350X. But after a deep reviews I found that they still have the same old engine and their control would be bit tough, especially the vibration problems after you reach a specific rpm.Bike styling is top notch and all the people in road keeps glaring at me. The biggest positive I felt is the power. The bike never felt like 150cc but more than that. It"s power is awesome even when I went on doubles ride. My bike can reach 100kmph within few seconds and it tries to increase even if I don"t notice. I went to a max of 113kmph and I didn"t feel any vibrations or difficulty/resistance to the engine. The engine is smooth. Another interesting thing is my bike overtakes KTMs and REs assaultly and I feel proud to see my bike cruice like a top sports bike infront of them though they too try to race with me. However, I keep my speed below 110km for my own safety and to not give overload to the engine. I had used the bike on very bad roads too. The suspension by default will be very hard and you cannot ride fast on non-plain roads. I got them smooth by getting it adjusted (it comes with 7 stage adjustment) and now the suspension feels ok. Dynamics or control using my bike is awesome. Gixxer SF is a well balanced bike and permits easy cornering despire the fairing. One of the main reasons why i choose this bike was due to the straight handle bar instead on clip on type. I don"t feel confident riding clip on type bikes (I think this will be problem for long rides) and the straight handle bar on a sports bike is like filling gap between sports and highway cruise bikes. I"m extremely happy with my choice. I do feel like the clutch and gears are little tight/hard to operate. Sometimes, the clutch and gear box behaves odd (probably my bike had that issue) but by adjusting the clutch wires and after I got services, I"m not seeing the problem. Overall, Im happy with my bike - a perfect companion in replacement to a girlfriend :D

Purchased Gixxer abs after taking test drive 5-6 top bikes in 150-160cc category.Bike is just awesome, great handling and cornering loaded with features like abs and informative instrument cluster.Bangalore city milage 42 -44kmplHighway milage 52- 54kmpl.Combined milage 48-49.Cons:Pillon comfort is just okay but not for elderly people.Spares and service is satisfactory.Suzuki should try to improve this to points to become no. 1 in this category.

As expected performance is overall good I am using it for daily commute for office and often I go for long rides up to 600 to 800kms a day.I never faced any issue and if you give for service on time I assure that you will not face any issue with this beauty.Only concern is rare seat as it is difficult to sit for long rides.

Nice machine.Very comfortable on city or off road.I highly recommend this bike for new riders.No single penny expend in last 3 years.Except service cost.
