Suzuki Sprinter / Sprinter ECO

[xtremist]

well guys there have been so much threads here on this topic, so a noble thought came to my mind tht i should make a STICKY thread which should discuss each and everything of SPRINTER and ECO...

so ALL STORIES GO HERE and plz dont bother to make any other thread....
thnx...

You must have your own observations about this bike, but here in Islamabad and Rawlapindi I see more and more cd-100 models on the road.

I dont know whether this is due to the "lakeer ka faqeer" or some other reason.

Anyhow thanks for your remarks.

No one of suzuki fans bothered to tell whether there is any problem in sprinter speedometer or not except foosa.

On Tuesday, I saw a sprinter eco. The owner changed both of the mudguards with the one of yamaha junnon. The bike was looking really nice with plastic rear mudguard and fancy front junoon mudguard.
I am not sure whether the rear mudguard was istalled with original setting or any modification was made. I couldnt ask the person because he was on the opposite side of the road.

Nice thing to preserve the original mudguards for resale purpose and to prevent them from rust.

If any body does that plz post pictures here.

[Automotorsport_Lover]

No reply on this topic so far where r all ppl??

[Alone_Munda]

dear i have also 110...(the old SD 110 Flash)...

and agreed that its meter is faluty too...even once a hole seller parts dealer told that SD 110 Flash was from Thailand not from Japan (he referred manual of SD 110)..but the meter problem is there built-in..

now as my personal experience, suzuki did this, just to break honda cd70's sale market..actually when suzuki launched 110cc, it was time of HOnda cd70, and there was no competitor of Honda in fuel average.., so might be suzuki did this to attract people more easily to their product...in sweet golden package of a 110cc bike and 140 on speedo meter also maximum fuel consumption of 73Km in a liter..but today...we know that 110's meter is faulty...but still we cant say dat Sprinter is bad bike (over all)...its still nice..wid strange carb (butterfly fuel injection)..which made possible for a 110 cc to achieve fuel avg. of around 55..

Salams to All
I, after reading posts from this forum (thanx a lot to all those who write their precious reviews) bought a Suzuki Sprinter Standard 110cc for traveling daily from home-office-home (30Km one side). It costed around Rs. 56,000/- including lifetime registration fee. I'm glad, my decision was right. The bike is in first-class condition after 2 years of heavy usage, according to its mileage meter, it has traveled above 30,000 Km so far. One thing to mention, I weigh more than 130Kg and drive mostly at a speed of 70-100+Km/Hr.


I would be happy to tell you guys, it has NOT shown ANY problem that all other brands do while running at this weight and speed.
It never became too hot to drop speed.. brakes working amazingly fine (I've changed brake shoes once a few weeks ago). Road Grip of the bike is perfect, handling perfect, acceleration from 0-65Km/hr is unbeatable. Its really a Sprinter. Last but not least, its fuel economy.. amazingly economic, does 60+Km per Litre of Petrol, I'm running it on Hi-Octane since when I bought it.

I live in Lahore, drive it from Shalimar region to Kot Lakhpat Region, those who know or had lived in Lahore might know well how long and rough-and-tough this journey is.


NOW.. I trust Suzuki Pak Motors. I'm highly interested to buy Suzuki GS150 Motorcycle. Direly need to know its pros and cons, strengths and weaknesses in details. I've got the mechanics' opinions from various Suzuki dealers, the only known issue is, its spare parts are too expensive, but in Sprinter too, I'm using only Genuine parts which cost much higher than low-cost Chinese counterparts. So that should not be an issue.
What are other issues? Does it require more frequent maintenance than this Sprinter? Is it not well made?


Need your help guys..

Regards,
Zillay Ali





P.S. I've posted the same in GS150 Forum as well.

[aiktoonamila]

I used magnetic south pole touching with petrol pipe coming from petrol tank to carburetor. It increased pick 10% and petrol average 8%. Any body else tried that ????

[farhannk]

both are reliable.. though im not a bike person.

Guys!!!!

after going thru the tread just want to share my experiences:

we owend 2 suzuki one was shoegun & the other currently is sprinter standard.
totally impressed with the quality of both bikes & relaibility. had bad experience with university road showroom regarding service issues. they are totally non preofessional and non technical guys.

i would recommend not to get ur bike tuned from the same.

Shoegun goods:
good, quality
quick pickup
good saeting position
all materials used were ok

Shoegun bads:
poor braking
sound during braking

overall was solid bike and after careful use sold out in 2005

Sprinter goods:
currently owned since 2005
smooth ride
comformtable seating position except for the bad seat.
good mileage
i have used the bike without tuning for more than six months and still doesn't needs tuninng


sprinter bads:
Head light light issue
chain sproket issue
bad & hard seat
tyre touching mudgard

now i am planing to get my hands on Sprinter eco and its on the way.

i have some qureies regarding eco:

1) if any change can be done to the backlight
2) can head light cover be installed like that of a GTO or Yamaha junoon headlight can be installed
3) can we install the star rims like used in suzuki sd-110 and how much they will cost.

[nnabeel]

guys guys,

yesterday got my hand on new sprinter eco. everything was checked and was ok except for the chain which was loose and making noices and the speed-o-meter which is faster by 10 units

ride was good, seat is good too.

Quality of parts was observed low as compared to the sprinter standard like

clutch n break lever
gear lever
air filter cover
horn

rest is good,pick up is allso


letsee what will be the future.

[friendayaz]

Salam to all,

I want to buy a suzuki sprinter but cannot decide to either go for eco or the other one... Eco has rectangular lights which I find more attractive as compared to the round lights that the standard sprinter has.

Other thing is the graphics of eco are more beautiful as compared to the other (this is my perception so may be I might be the only one saying this.)

Eco also costs less than the sprinter. (Here at Karachi Eco is worth Rs.63900 excluding documentation charges while sprinter standard is Rs.66900)

If we can fit that headlight covers in ECO like that found on Kawasaki and Yamaha then I will definitely go for ECO.

Please tell me if this is available in market?

Thanks
