    Adjust the clutch lever play and shifts will be better. If you are on Yamalube, the shifts will be notchy.

    For Clutch Plates, their will be loss of pick up, the bike will take sweet time to gain speed, hard gear shifts.
    The real beauty lies in throttle's twist!!

    Headlight can be replaced, Head cannot be. Wear a helmet.

      I think white led is better for main light and green one for angel light (or whatever the small light at bottom in fzs called).

            thats all right 4k rpm at 5th gear should be anywhere between 50-60kmph depending on the road, the exact position of rpm, clutch condition etc.

            Hard gear shifts are attriubted to Cluth cable about to bust or degraded oil or clutch play. the most common is degraded oil. When was the last time oil was changed in your bike and what oil was that?

            To know if the clutch has gone bad or not take the bike to an empty road preferablly upwards sloping put in gear and try to give full accelerator if the rpm meter starts climbing but the speed does not move accordingly then the clutch plates need replacement. Cost of replacement of clutch plates is around 1200-1300rs if I am not wrong.

              Yamaha Fazer 153cc Version 1 Stock Headlight Replacement and Bosch Symphony Fitment!!

              Dear Friends/Seniors/Juniors,
              I have an intention to install White HID Bulbs (not Projector setup) in my Fazer for both lower and upper application. But, I am confused what to install, local mechanic telling go to Wellingtone, Kolkata for cheaper options, but have no warranty. I am keen to install Philips ones because they are reliable and long lasting. Can anybody help me what to install and where? Also want Bosch Symphony Horn in my bike. Can anybody tell how they are fitted with Motorcycle small batteries. Thanks in advance.
              Regards

                  Guys today I've observed that the right side of the rear tyre is more worn than the left side and even the bike pulls towards the right side when I accelerate or brake hard.what may be the reason?

                    I don't know the exact reason, but it happened to my bike also. Maybe the roads are built with slight angle to run off rain water. I am not sure.

                    Change the tyre before monsoon or the bike will wobble a lot on wet roads.
                    Ride safe and have fun.

                      Hi
                      It happened with my Bike too.
                      Reason was correctly pointed out by nadz11.ns but however it might also be due to the improper alignment of the tyres because my previous tyre had them and my current ones dont. The roads are the same where im riding here in Kolkata.

                        Is there any way to keep the bite of the front brake in same way after it has been bled? My front brake looses it's bite very fast.

                          Nope. You just have to get used to that less feedback the bite doesn't come close to like on a new bike.

                          Maybe the brake line is the culprit.

                            The lever has to be pressed almost half way for the brake to come into action :banghead:

                            Has anybody tried fitting Pulsar 220's brake line on FZ?

                              There were couple of members in R15v2 ownership thread who had installed them and have shared their positive review on them.
                              I wanted to get them installed, but never really got through.

                              If the hose is same, we can surely use P220's line.
                              Ride safe and have fun.

                                I got 220 steel braided pipes on FZ. Length is a bit shorter than stock, but fits and works fine.
