Have been using System G in my cars and bikes for almost 10 years now. Just couple of things for people who have doubts: System G was officially recommended by Ford and GM for their cars till couple of years back. Similarly, TVS recommended the same for RTR 160.

As far as my experience with it is concerned; I am quite satisfied with the performance of the same. As mentioned earlier I have used if for quite some time, in between I switched over to STP fuel injector and carburettor cleaner. I found System G to be much superior to STP. You can feel the difference in just couple of tank full of fuel treatment.

Also note that they have never claimed to increase of power by using of the same. What they are claiming is that by keeping the engine and the fuel system clean, it helps maintain power output which would otherwise go down due to carbon build up and gunk build in the fuel system. Which is a reasonable claim.

Recommended usage is 1ml per liter of fuel. I would recommend a 2 ml per liter dose initially for the first couple of tankful of fuel as it will help clean the carbon from the intake track and combustion chamber. Yes, it can be used regularly. In fact you should use it regularly to get maximum benefit.

Re: Yamaha FZ-16/ FZ-S

Guys, may be a noob question but since my bike is ridden 10000kms+ , so I want to know is that - Is system G really worth ?
If Yes, then I will give it a try vut where in kolkata can I get it & what is actually needed to be done once a tankful of petrol is used with proportionate usage of system G

Yes, it is worth it. You will need couple of tankful to see real difference. Search for at any BP petrol pump. You may need to clean the fuel filter and the carburettor, but that's about it.

Hi Vimal,
The drain screw shown in the photo is correct. Apply little bit of WD40, sometimes the screw is jammed. Use a good screwdriver or else you might damage the head. Keep a small container below the drain tube to collect the petrol from the drain.

Hi,
Here is the contact of the Iftex person in Mumbai: Akash: 9819988454 or Shiva Nair: 022-22853281.
If you stay in Suburbs then you can buy it from Jhaveri Auto in Borivli: 285055793.
I use System23 which is meant for 2 wheelers. Don't know the difference in the chemical composition or properties, but make sense to use it since it's from the same company which sells SystemG, which is for cars. Dosage & other details are given on the website.

Re: Yamaha FZ-16/ FZ-S

Hi all,
Need one suggestion, I have my headlight set-up as One bulb at low beam, and 2 bulbs at high beam, now my question is, if I put 2 55/60W bulbs in the same set-up, what might be the problems, that could appear.
1) Will it eventually burn the reflectors?
2) Can the stock battery handle the load of 2 55/60W bulbs (in high beam)?
3) Or is it advisible that only one bulb should be activated for high/low beam to maintain the stock battery health?
Since I really don't want to switch to HID's, It will be very helpful if anyone could anwser.

Hi Vimal,
Yes, online you get discounts too.
Actually no need to change the fuel knob position since carburetor works on vaccum.
Gather the drain in a white container to see the dirt.

No it wont burn the reflectors.halogens dont produce so much heat.
2) Can the stock battery handle the load of 2 55/60W bulbs (in high beam)? For some time,it can.then it would start dimming as battery cant take so much load.try out with 2x55w lights for a few days within city.if u face any problems,keep one light glowing in low beam.
3) Or is it advisible that only one bulb should be activated for high/low beam to maintain the stock battery health?

Thanks a lot buddy

will try with 2 55/60W in high beam, and 1 55/60W at low beam, and run it for few days. Let's hope that it won't cause any problem.

It surely wont cause any problems.even if it does,just get the battery water topped up.but no highway rides with that setup,as its for trial purposes only.

Ok, thanks for your suggestion and quick reply. Now, if you please don't mind, since you said "no highway rides", what's the disadvantages of a highway ride with the mentioned set-up?
