    3) The pillion seat is totally uncomfortable.
    Now v 3 is even better [emoji7][emoji7]

    I guess it ll b

    1. The dreaded magneto cover oil leak.

    2. Engine drinking engine oil on long trips.

    Engine a bit less refined than fz.

    Liquimoly oils are also imported oils & they are official lubricant suppliers to MOTO2 & MOTO3 champian ship races.

    I use motul 7100 10w40 and it's smooth and gives unmatched smoothness.

    Yamaha lube mineral is worst

    Yamaha lube semisynth the r15 oil is somewhat better.

    Motul 5100 does the trick too for a while.

    Motul 300v 10w40 good but overkill.

    In my observations 7100 10w40 is best.though it's expensive too.

    I have 2018 Fzs v2. Rear disk variant.

    With motul 7100 u won't even notice when it touches 90 to 95.

    And no oil leaks like Gixxer.

    Let me know if you have any specific questions.

    This is the most refined engine u can buy in 150cc.
