Hello, I'm Jo from Indonesia. Maybe some of you had known about an issue that FZ16 will be released in Indonesia with codename Yamaha Byson. I like this bike so much, look strong and powerful. But I want to ask a few thing about this bike.

- First of all, what is the main problem after using this bike?
- I'd like to know where is FZ16 Modification Forum site? I want to see some of FZ16 modified.

Nice to meet you, sorry for my bad English.

Red face Free services for my FZ16

HI guys,

Sorry if this post doesn't belong here but i need help urgently. I'm from bangalore. I lost my owner's manual unfortunately. Finished my first free service some 2 months ago. Now, all free service coupons and bike warranty card, everything is on the owners manual right? So what to do for next 5 free services? Will they give me another owners manual on request?

Also, pls clarify if the second free service is 3 months from date of purchase or 3 months from date of last service? Because if its from 3 months of date of purchase, then i'm running close to finishing it in 3 days.

BTW, update on performance oils for engine, it really feels much better, smooth and ride quality is improved. Mileage around 45 kmpl or more.

Talking My Eclipse-Yamaha FZS Black Green

Hi ,to fellow Xbpians....i was a constant follower of XBHP for past 6months, read all the comment of thread for FZ16.

Was really impressed with all the opinions and comment .
Finally booked my FZS black Green on 6th Dec 2010 and after a 2 month wait got the delivery of my babe on 11Feb 2011.

Along with FZS also order some accessories like Crank case cover,LED Stop light, and LED position light. The LED stop light are gorgeous in the night.

As i am prominent member of a Riding group in mumbai valiant-Riderz we ofter tour around maharashtra once every month. hence i also got HID's with projectors fitted on the FZS which was very tiring and cumbersome as the from the Glass of the Headlight assembly is glued . wasted my stock headlight and it broke during removal of the Glass cover. Bought one more Headlight of Lumax and gave it to a local mechanic to open up and finally got my HID with Angel Eyes fitted.
Now My FZS is an eye catcher for most bikers around Andheri West for the Blue Angel Eyes !!

Thankz to all XBHPians for helping me choose the correct vehicle, as FZ is best in handling ,braking, cornering and power !!

Clocked 60km/hr as the top speed yet, following 4500RPM. Completed 300km in 10days !! looking forward for my ride to lonavala on 5th March !!
