does GS150R come with a PUFF-UP tyre(tubeless tyre). How about its, maintenance costs? Warranty? How many pieces have been sold yet, in India-region wise? In chennai metro, there are fewer GS150Rs, and one is not coming across it as often as one should, for a bike of this make & brand. Why?
Nice review! And, Suzuki has proven once again that no one can hold their hands in power segment. The best part of the bike is its speedometer, which shows every thing like in which gear our bike is running. Therefore this model is a good competitor for pulsar and Apache as well as Yamaha.
