Immediate Help required

Hi Guys,

I am experiencing a strange problem with my FZ rear tyre.
It got puncture on 2-3 occasions but my problem is that after few initial punctures, now it seems that tyre gets puncture from the same place almost everytime. Due to which the hole has enlarged. Can you please suggest a remedy for the same? The puncture no longer is sticking to its place. I got it fixed yesterday and today it has come out half the way thru....

Plz help/advice

riding FZ in the rains is a real mess... the entire pillion seat gets dirty because of the small mudguard...and if there is a pillion..god save him!!! his back is bound to get dirty....the mud gets reflected back that the entire back gets dirty.

Any remedy anyone???

Man i got tired of waiting for this pic to come up , but anyway ,

dude just chk this pic which i got it from news:fazer launched thread..it has got the new fazer with extended rear mudguard.

.it looks pretty good too.i think this can marginally solve our problems for getting dirt during rainy season.

Hey Guys its 500 Kms on and its just getting better and better on my FZ-S.......

Average is around 40 kmpl on Xtra Premium Petrol (But I am getting higher on HP Power would report it soon)
Ride is a bit stiff but handling lets me forget it completely
0-60 is great.........Not went beyond 65 since first service is due
I personally liked the ground clearance as its pretty good for me bcoz my old bike was 10 mm lower than this...
there is that occasional starting problems aur missing that I know since I am following this thread would be sorted after first service and also the harder gear shifts
Rest I had some question folks
I noticed a small nail on the rear tyre of my bike and pulled it out immediately..do I have to get it checked or not bcoz the nail was very small one.......??
Regarding the Chain Lubing this week there was this horrible rains in delhi so I am yet to notice any rust on chain but as a precaution should I lube the chain weekly??

Thanks & Regards

hey my tyre got punctured with a small paperpin, i pulled it out and didn't notice the leak but after a few days took it for a repair and now its ok

hey i enquired at a tyre shop FZ tyre costs a lil less than 3000

and does everyone notice a sound change when we hit 70 above... a more grunty sound? and when we pull the accelerator hard?

hey man , this doesn't happen at 70 only , you can get that sound on,lower speeds also if you max the throttle ... it will make the grunt but the speed doesn't increase ...

ok i guess this is it ... was this the one you were talking about ?

@braveheart : Is that an axle nut issue or a balance and alignment one ???

yeah I did , I doubt it's effectiveness although I think it might help reduce the splattering a wee bit ...

thnkz for ur pic dude..does this really help u during rainy season

.how abt the cost

**vvpl_11** · 08-03-2009, 07:24 PM

Itz free of cost for all the current FZ owners dude

, And I suppose the new bikes will have it installed as well......

Oh, and it is completely removable incase you decide to show off your rear tyre again

It was raining quite heavily in Chennai last week, and yes the new mudflap did a much better job than the stock one.....

But just dont expect too much, FZ will still remain a FZ
