Even after servicing it now in 2021, it is capable of running like new. The bike was truly ahead of its time when it launched way back in 2008-09, featuring dual horns, trip meters and even riding modes. Since we bought the bike in 2008, apart from issues which can be covered while servicing, there have been no major problems on the bike. Suzuki does an amazing job with its bikes. Inherited this beauty of a bike from my dad last year. If they had released a fi version, it would be a killer, which they failed to look around, hero glamour got its fi back then Rear brakes, considering its time, it was not as bad as compared to some of them in 20213. Gear position indicator and the modes, eco and powerCons: 1. Crispy exhaust note, singing in your ears.7. Seat can take you distances with out stepping off it6. Now i can relate why people gripe about slipper clutch, which does not lock up the rear just like mine did. I almost died twice right after service of engine choking up(engine stalling) middle of high speed runs in highways. The service was good till 2010, and later it became like giving set of tools to a kid to screw your bike at your own cost. I have to say if the company or the showrooms gave up on it too soon. Servicing is comparatively affordable by most other competitors, also the spare parts were at least available on demand, if not readily available. Well, what good are you, if you don't trust your instincts. Nah, nothing close to this in all rounder vfm.So being a new brand(2009), just separated from tvs partnership, most people were concerned about the reliability of the gs150r. I still do not feel like switching the bike, i have tried many bikes to replace my requirement. For city ride and occasional touring, it should be an awesome machine. I would still get one if suzuki launches again.I love the simple styling or rather elegance. I have done 280kms on a one-side with one pitstop and it never ran out of power or felt breathless. Till date(2021) i never experienced a gearshift so precise and smooth on many other bikes. When i restored to the factory tune, riding by the road norms i got close to 60kmpl, which is still great for any bike in its class. I have had the mechanic tune it for performance and i was able to clock 123 kmph. It was awesome, good service and technicians were awesome.Riding: this is still an awesome machine, a forgotten or most underrated legend in its class.
Buying: i bought it in chennai swapna motors(not available anymore).
