Thread: Yamaha FZ-16/ FZ-S

Hi Bangalore Guys, Can you please suggest me where i can get mushroom puncture done for my FZ rear tyre. I stay in indiranagar

The mileage I'm getting from my FZ is still just 30. I'd asked the service station (Bangalore Wheels) to do something to improve it at the last service. But apparently, nothing's been done. When I asked the mechanic there, he claimed that the FZ does just 30 to 35 km/l in the city! When I told him that most people are reporting 40+ km/l, he continued with his evasive replies.

I've decided that I won't go back to them for anything else again. So XBHPians from Bangalore, could you tell me which is the best service centre in Bangalore?

guys..
one of my friends needs to change fz's rear tire. does anyone know its cost?

Sai and Iyengar tyre clinic will have the tools for mushroom puncture by next month. oh! btw he also has a liquid which seals off the puncture from inside in case you get one. It will cost u 400 bucks per tyre.

Sai and Iyengar is next to figurine fitness in Indiranagar.

Bro....i think either the FZ carbs are not tunable or the SVC guys are just not tuning it....Thats what happened to me....When i complained about low mileage they made it so lean that my engine heat was enough to keep my legs warm wearing shorts even in this harsh winter.....
Thats when i got it tuned from a local mechanic and he told me that it was not even cleaned from the start....

The harsh reality is that gear shifts of your bike is directly proportional to the skills of your SVC mechanic being good or bad
I learned it the hard way....
