Suzuki GS150R Launched
Inspired by the success and the rate at which Yamaha is boosting up in India, Suzuki had launched the much awaited Suzuki GS150R, which was known as the Lanza. The design was inspired from Suzuki’s GSX-R super bike series.
The Suzuki GS150R is a 150cc bike that develops an output of 13.8bhp @ 8500rpm and torque of 13.4Nm @ 6000rpm and is equipped with a 6-speed manual transmission.
The GS150R is 2095mm long, 775mm wide, 1120mm high and has a long wheelbase of 1340mm. The GS150R comes with 4 colours – Candy Dark Greenish Blue, Mettalic Flint Gray, Candy Max Orange, Pearl Nebular Black.
The GS150R looks great when compared to the other 150cc segment bikes, that is when the Yamaha bikes are excluded. The first feature of the design which looks great is the muscular fuel tank design which can hold 15.5L of fuel. The next would be the highly CBZ Xtreme-like rear LED tail lights, but suits well with the design, unlike the CBZ Xtremes.
The most sad part is the so called “wolf eyed headlights” which look almost the same as the Pulsar’s headlights. The side gets panels of black and silver that cover up a part of the engine. For the front the GS150R gets 2.75 -18 tyre whereas the rear gets a fat 100/90-18 tyre.
For ride comfort, the GS150R gets hydraulic forks and gas charged rear suspension. It features disc brakes at the front and drum brake at the rear. The GS150R is equipped with digital instrument console that includes the speedo meter, the odo-meter and the digital gear indicator. It also offers 2 selectable modes – Power or Economy. When the Power mode is opted, the full power shows up whereas when the Economy mode is opted, the engine is tuned to more fuel saving mode.
Suzuki has priced the GS150R at Rs 59000 (ex-showroom Delhi) and according to them the GS150R’s Fuel Economy(FE) will be 50kmpl in the City and 55kmpl at the highway.
