Wll i tried a friends FZ today, after riding RTR for some long period i came to some good conclusion about this bike
1. First its vibes free (which is enough in RTR) 2. I used to think that the low end torque is not that good, but i was wrong, it was really good till 85 mark 3. Handling is superb, specially for the rear tyre, it was like very much planted to earth. 4. Last but not the least, the looks, i was feeling like riding a big machine, and of course people were starring.

![]() ![]() Yesterday I was bored at home after adding some colours to my tank cover...lied down on the bed and read the manual...I came across this Throttle Free Play...I was wondering if we minimise the throttle free play to get more power concentration on the throttle (meaning with lesser twisting of my wrist, the throttle woud respond better, which means more concentration of power in the throttle) ... so I experimented with the throttle free play and then adusted the rpm... . started the bike and felt a bit of difference, though I needed to tuned the engine rpm properly in the YMIS. Later in the evening when I started on the practice for wheelie... damn the response was better... The bike lifted more easily after the adjustment was done as compared to what I had previously done...Dont know if any of you guys have tried experimenting with the "Throttle Free Play"... and if you did it, please do give feedback to this particular post. ![]() @leadpb: Well I haven't much checked my mileage... ![]() Maybe in the plains mileage will be high...but on Hilstation roads with traffic, m sure it will be much lesser as compared to the plains.... Most probably this coming next Week by 17th Friday, will be going for about 1000kms trip for about a week, for work-cum-ride-cum-short touring...around the state...so will get back to this mileage info and let you know... Just hoping the Weather (usually its time for rainy season), the "Monster" (FZ) and the "MILLITANT outfits" ![]() won't be troubling us along the way..... ... hmmmm should I be carring a WaterGun with some booze on it for them?...hehehhehe![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

some FZ owners are testing KPL soon after the bike is delivered. while the bike is in running-in period, the fuel settings are set to Rich, as the new engine generates lot of heat, the engine cools with fresh rich air fuel mix entering into it. the manufacturer sets the carb to rich settings. we cant get the correct KPL during this period, and this shouldn't be altered (setting to lean air fuel mix) until 1000 KM, as the engine suffers permanent damage thus decreasing the engine life. if u want to squeeze some extra kms per liter, adjust the pilot air screw to lean settings after 1000 KM. so leave the bike alone at least up to the end of running-in period ........then think about increasing or testing the KPL / mileage
