Pulsars are already heavy machines and adding more weight to the bilke for looks.... I would never advice it... but the last call is yours.... if you wish to get the looks bolder, then go for it as it really looks great... probably one of the best looking exhausts arround!! |

Hey guys,
This is Mudassir from Hyderabad. Actually i got a Yamaha FZS. I wanted to enhance my bike regarding the pickup and bhp. I have with me K&N made air filter(model RC-1060). i would like to fit that device into my vehicle. Will it help me achieve the desired output. Some people say that it will reduce my engine life, blah blah.... So please advice. Will be grateful to u guys. |

Technically there are no issues, in throwing in a K&N, bigger jets, fatter tyres on your bike, but then think it this way.... all these peformance mods still it would be 125cc engine producing 8-9 odd bhp.... so, it's a question of the canvas you have in your hand!! So, instead of paying so much on modifying the Glamour sell it off to one of your friend and get yourself atleast a 150cc which offer a much better platform for modification. Or else, you can do even better...... get yourself a second hand Yamaha 2-stroke, contact a good mechanic and have Disk Brakes, Proton Exhaust charger, K&N air filter, bigger jets go in (this would again cost you somewhere near to a 150cc), but buddy you would enjoy the ride like anything.... be it your daily city riding or any toures you might plan with your friends.

1) shove in the K&N 2) now since there is more Air flow in the combustion chamber, you need to up-jet the carb. 3) now since you have a rich air-fuel mixture inside the combustion chamber, you need to ensure it burns properly, else everything you did in step 1 and 2 would go in useless. So, you need to get yourself Iridium tip spark plugs, like the ones you get from NGK. 4) Finally since there's lot burning inside the combustion chamber producing a lot of power, you need to get yourself Free-Flow exhaust or Exhaust charger - for which you can contact Joel dude!! This should complete the cycle ![]() Before that I would suggest to add some extra circumference of braking power front and back to give you that stability in Indian gravel conditions and really allowing to push the bike harder!! I mean having a twin-disk upfront and the a disk on the rear!! Believe me... I've ridden such an FZ and you can apply the front brakes with on hand at speeds of 80-85kmph without the bike swaying a sigle mm.... having twin disk upfront is that stable.

. Even if you spend 20k on it you will not be happy with the results. Also, Resale value will go crashing down. I suggest you sell the bike (you will get a reasonable price for a 2008 model) and buy a used '07 model 150/200cc bike if possible.Go ahead with the mods csajal has suggested, he knows exactly what he's talking about.
