yaa both of them have same grade .... but both are different...i mean Yamalube is light and Motul is thick (denser).....so i m reluctant to mix.....i am so planing to wait till my next servicing when i'll change the whole oil...but again there is gap of 15 days...so i just want to make sure if its ok to ride in such low oil.....

Its better not to mix them. Instead change your oil now. While getting your bike serviced, you can ask the SVC ppl not to change the engine oil.
Best not to ride when oil is low.

Cheers!!

I was planning to buy a CBR250, but due to some financial constraints, I have to look at a lower priced bike in the 150 cc range. I've zeroed in on the FZ-S as to me it looks like the only bike in that segment that has character rather than being a plain-Jane commuter.

Who is the best dealer to buy this from in the HSR-Koramangala area of Bangalore? Any other after-sales/service issues I should be aware of?

hmm... dats feasible idea......but for that i need oil filter to change rite?....nd i guess i will be getting original oil filter part only from a Yamaha SVC only rite?

hello all,
I have a 2012 Yamaha Fazer. it has clocked about 16,xxx kms. I have changed the following things till date-
1. spark plug- added NGK Iridium spark plugs with a spit fire cable. (at 13k kms)
2.air filter-stock itself. (at 14k kms)
3.rear tyre- upgraded to dunlop tuff grip 140/70-17 (at 16k kms)
now unfortunately the chain started making a lot of noise. When shown to a reliable Yamaha-SVC in my area (Suvarnrekha yamaha,karvenagar) they did some chain setting and the sound stopped. But again after 100-150kms the sound started again. After showing them again they told me to change the rear sprocket. so now as it was monsoon he did the setting and told me to come after monsoon. So i will be changing the sprocket in September. The ODO mostly would stand around 18.5k kms.
Now i want to increase the acceleration of the bike, which basically involves a rear large sprocket. After checking with the SVC they said it cant be done. I am very confused. Recently a friend told about the Daytona sprockets. so i have the following querries-
1.Has any one done the thing i am planning to? With larger rear sprockets? If yes how and what did you tell the service advisor? (any mechs in pune?)
2.What would be the ideal cost of the whole thing? if i change the rear sprocket is it necessary to change the front sprockets too?
3.What would be the cost of the dayton sprockets? are there any harmful effects of installing them?
Thanks a lot!

Planning to get a mudguard extension mod on my ride. Any suggestions other than the guard near the engine of commuter bikes? Help would be highly appreciated.

I don't know much what can be done..butbyou can try the engine guard of old gen apache.. That said to be a relayively easy fit with min alterations..

and as for extra rear mud-guard, you can use Dukes wheel guard.. And that would also need minimum alteration with fitting..

I dont want the belly pan. The water splashes on to the engine,thereby forming rust on the header pipe. In order to stop that,i am planning to do something to extend the mudguard so that less water is splashed from the tyre.
Duke's wheel guard..what is that?

Yo FZ riders..................

The thing here is that.. Karizma is way more comfortable than Fz.. But as per your requirements, you would not do much touring and long trips, Fz would be suitable for you.. And also you would be free from the headace of loans and all..
fz is an awesome city ride.. Resonable fuel economy, good acceleration and looks are better than most 150cc bikes.. The stance is also upright, which is good..
go for it.. Don't worry.. In nearly 2 years of ownership, i haven't faced any serious problem..
the main point is that you would own it right away and Fz is by no means a small bike..

let others comment their views and then decide whats best for you..

Thanks for the reply dude.. really matters a lot..
I am 5'11" having a medium build.. comfort is not my first priority.. build to last hassle free engine definately is..

mostly i will b riding Solo.. pillion rarely.. until and unless koi kudi patt jaye

maximum touring will be one day ride.. mumbai to pune/nashik/lonavala etc..
