Hello everybody,

I bought my Yamaha Fazer in April 2010. I recently noticed something weird about my bike when my friend, who has the same bike(same color too :P) came to my house. I rode his Fazer and he rode mine. I found a considerable difference in pick-up while riding his bike. Mine never had such good pick-up from the time I bought it. I was irritated. He bought his bike like 4-5 months after me. How can his bike have a better pick up?? Mileage also he gets more than me, he gets like 45 while i get 35-38. My bike has some history though...I tried fitting a K&N filter and an After market spark plug 2months after i bought my bike. Since the mechanic couldn't do the up-jetting properly(after trying many times), i told him to remove the K&N filter and put back the stock filter..Removed the spark plug and put stock too... Other than that, I've maintained my bike very well..Timely servicing and other stuff...I badly want pick up as my friend's fazer...What should i do?? Should i ask in a Service centre? Or should i go find some local mechanic(who will cheat me)?? I live in Chennnai. I appreciate some advise from somebody !!
