After the successful  launch of the Suzuki Gixxer,the company has plans to produce the new motorcycle that underpins the base Suzuki Gixxer,which now became the flagship model in India.The proceedings are going on to bring out the product in the early next year.It is to be designed with the new 155 cc single cylinder,SOHC,air-cooled and carburetted engine that gets mated to a 5-speed transmission unit. Tunnings are made in such a way to deliver the maximum fuel efficiency,yet found to be slower than the Suzuki Gixxer that churns out 14.8PS of peak power at 8,000rpm and 14Nm of maximum torque at 6,000rpm.In compensation with the offer of new 155cc commuter motorcycle  at low cost,most of the spare parts are to be inherited from  the existing ones.However,there is lack of digital instrumentation console which is found to be present at the Gixxer. Further conventional coil spring shock absorbers with gas dampers is said to replace the monoshock absorbers.Arriving at the expected  price range close to Rs75,000(on-road,Delhi),it will take on the likes of Honda CB Unicorn, Hero Hunk,Yamaha  SZ150 and Bajaj Discover 150.
