Cheerz!!

Leave the application for 5 mins (if it's Waxpol), the surface where the polish is applied will become white, then wipe off with a microfibre cloth (available in roadside with yellow or red in color), else you can also use, very old Dhooti or Saree, for wiping job. As for the other two (Formula1 and Turtle Wax), leave the application for 15-20 mins, then wipe off with some pressure applied.

Under hard braking, if it's from the rear brakes. U need to get 'em cleaned. Shift to the top gear when you feel it's right, don't worry about what speed. U'll endanger yourself staring at the speedo while changing gears

Re: Yamaha FZ-16/ FZ-S

Atlast! I am into the FZ Club.. Just bought my Red Stallion Home!!
IT was an awesome 1KM I rode. My friend rode on main road and I drove in my street.
Bike is super smooth, perfect for newbies like me! Dont think, just go ahead with it guys.
BTW I need some good pair of gloves. So can anyone please suggest one? Maybe an online link?
I need somehting that can blend well with my ride..

Re: Yamaha FZ-16/ FZ-S

Congrats on the Ride bro.

The bike looks Great. Colour is lovely.
And yes! Fz is a great bike. Flows with looks, performance & quality.
I'm too a proud owner of fz.
Coming to Gloves, Pro-Biker gloves are Entry level Riding Gloves and they serve pretty well, they go well with the Bike's colour too.
Here is the Link.Probiker Gloves

How does it effect the mileage?

Thanks

I can confidently say that this issue has nothing to do with your horns, Even if you have 2 of them

Re: Yamaha FZ-16/ FZ-S

My gloves. These are for racing hense the dual velcro tabs, protected little finger etc.
They take a little bit to wear in but are comfortable and I won't ride without them.
Cost was SIN$200

I prefer the gauntlet style over gloves as my watch is protected, If I'm wearing my Brietling Super Avenger and something happens I'd rather the glove be covering it than scratching it up.

Like the above poster mentioned, Get a good approved legal helmet that fits, Don't go for one that matches the color of your favorite shirt, though it if does match up then bonus!
Same with gloves, Try them on, try gripping your bike and levers, Make sure they are not too tight, also the stiching inside the fingers near the nails, Make sure that doesn't annoy you.
If you wear a watch then try the gloves while wearing the watch, Also see if you can grab zippers, pick up your phone and put it in your pocket, grab keys and function your fingers like normal.
If you do come off your hands usually are the first things you put out to break your fall. Make sure they are protected.

I'm curious as I want to install dual horns as my friends tell me that since they put dual horns on their rides they have increased mileage.

my mileage has increased but cant pinpoint if its the dual horns!!
i had joelled my ride around the same time and im sure there is a marginally share of bump in mileage due to it.
not sure whats the science between dual horns and mileage increase.

btw,do 7amp battery fit in allocated space??
and whats the normal life for stock battery.

Guys cant you see he is just making fun of you!? Creating a topic related to mileage himself when nobody discussed it and then making fun of it. This is cheap and shouldn't be allowed!

Moderator listening!!

Lighten up mate. You are so quick to run and call for moderators. I bet you used to tell on your school mates to the teachers.

Lighten up! Yes! But I love to have fun in life.. not at anybody's expense though. Which is not the case with you.

This thread has become very dull and boring.
So I decide to inject a bit of humour into it, then the Hall Moniter/Prefect/goodie goodie 2 shoes comes along yelling out for the teacher/mods and hopes to kill the thread again.
I don't see how its making fun at the expense of others. If anything I'm making fun of myself (which is easy for me to do but very very difficult for you to do it seems)

OK, back to not having any fun in this thread as the self proclaimed Keeper of the Thread has banned any more fun.

Just stay off the facebook group, We have a lot of fun on there and would hate for you to go calling the mods.

You appear to be a self proclaimed humor injector definitely from the above post.

There is a hilarious quote thread which the humor lover in you rarely visits.

It is clearly cheap sarcasm which is dominating your posts. I dont know why your funny posts always revolve around the word 'mileage'. Anyways, I am not interested anymore in "awakening" this thread by indulging in tit for tat posts.

And yes, please dont advice me on what I should join and what I shouldnt.. Thats none of your business.

Just like I am not advicing you to stop posting these messages.. thats your right! even if it is unacceptable to me.
