      hi , i had a mileage drop down problem with my Karizma, which i later realized to be that the petrol i was using was not of good quality. After changing my air filter too , i got a mileage of 40kmpl.

        km/l

        any way in consequence of the rear wheel dimension Fz will allways drink a lot of petrol, keep the air filter clean and check the color of the candle if it is too dark the mixture is not balance
