Suzuki GS 150 2024 Model: Customers’ Expectations
Given the GS 150’s enduring popularity, it’s no surprise that calls for a refreshed design have grown louder. As the years have passed, the GS 150 has retained its iconic appearance, evoking desires for change. Here’s a glimpse into customers’ expectations for the Suzuki GS 150 2024 model:
A Fresh Look
Lots of people are saying they want a totally new style for the Suzuki GS 150 because they’re getting tired of the same look that’s been around for more than ten years. They want changes in how it’s shaped, the graphics, and all the design stuff.
Introduction of Balancer (Less Vibration)
Even though the bike doesn’t shake too much, some riders are bothered by vibrations when they go faster, like around 70 to 80 km/h. Adding something called a balancer to the Suzuki GS 150 2024 model could make the engine shake less.
Better Front Tyre
Since many people use this bike for trips, people are expecting a better front tire. The current one, 2.75-18 42P, is okay, but it could be improved. The Yamaha YBR 125G has a 3.00 – 18 47P tire that’s better for long rides and off-road adventures. So, for the Suzuki GS 150 2024, many are expecting that it should come with wider tires.
DIgital Instrument Cluster
The current model is being sold for more than Rs.350,000 and yet lacks the digital instrument cluster. Considering the price, it is a genuine demand of many people.
Fuel and Gear Indicators
The instrument cluster on the GS 150 doesn’t show you how much fuel you have or what gear you’re in. But these days, people really like having those indicators. So, we can expect that the company will listen to the customers.
Dipper is Necessary Nowadays
In this modern age, dippers in bikes are essential. Especially if the bike is mostly used for touring. So, it is a much needed thing to be introduced in the Suzuki 150 2024 model.
More Comfortable Seat
The seat of GS 150 is reported to be harder as experienced by many people. Although it is still more comfortable than YBR’s seat, the company should improve its comfort level by using gel or other cushioning in it.
A bunch of people find the GS 150’s seat to be pretty hard. It’s more comfortable than the YBR’s seat, but it could be made even better by using a better cushioning.
Modern Headlight
The headlight on the GS 150 is old-fashioned, and many don’t like it anymore. They want a big change in its design or a whole new look that fans of Suzuki would love.
Quality Improvements
Some GS 150 riders are speaking up about issues with the paint, body, chrome, switches, side mirror, and other parts. Some are even seeing rust. So, it is really important for the company to fix these things and make the bike better in terms of quality.
Safety Lock for Side Cover
People have noticed that the side covers sometimes come off when they are going fast. The company needs to do something about this.
New and Better Mudguards
There are a lot of complaints about the small mudguards, especially the front one, not doing a good job of blocking mud and water. People are hoping the company will make better ones for the new model.
A Better Rack
The carrier rack on the Suzuki 150 looks old-fashioned. It’s time to make it look modern, just like the new body design.
Improved Fuel Efficiency
Many people are saying the GS 150 uses too much petrol. Suzuki could change things around to make it more efficient, which would make people happy, especially with petrol prices in Pakistan.

Final Verdict
Suzuki’s GS 150 has stayed the same for a long time. Now is a good moment to listen to what customers want and make those changes happen. There’s another bike, the GR 150, that has some of these features, but it’s too expensive for many people. If Suzuki can make these changes in the new GS 150 model, it could make a lot of customers really happy.
