Re: Yamaha FZ-16/ FZ-S
I wouldn't relate the engines.. but they definitely share that sound.. i am 100% sure.. check out the videos i mentioned bro.. also check out the fz25 video i added at the end of the post.. mine sounds exactly the same when hot -
Re: Yamaha FZ-16/ FZ-S
Hmm, I've heard some FZ v2 producing this sound. Not all of them do that though. Perhaps it's related to the valve clearances/CCT/oil.Originally posted by truelypulsarian View PostLeave a comment:

Re: Yamaha FZ-16/ FZ-S
The fz 2.0 engine is noisy when it becomes hot. Seen many bikes with this issue.Originally posted by Shashank K R View PostLeave a comment:

Re: Yamaha FZ-16/ FZ-S
On the FZ25 it is expected and is normal. There's not much of a relation between the FZ25 and FZ v3 engines, they're built very differently.Originally posted by vanp View PostLeave a comment:

Re: Yamaha FZ-16/ FZ-S
I have heard complaints from only the 2018 fz and now 2019 fz v3 owners.. check these vids:-Originally posted by Shashank K R View Post
1. https://youtu.be/xY_3m9d9vvU
this guy uprgraded to the 300v after getting fed up of overheating engine, hard gear shifts and in his words "kirrr kirrr" sound from the engine.. he has the 2018 v2.. same as mine
2. https://youtu.be/7-zMMMuAN5k
he has the v3 and same issue described by him.. video reported here by fellow member #bpk
previously i wasnt able to describe the sound.. i named it "trrr trrr".. but when i saw the fz25 forum and members mentioning the coin rattling sound.. i immediately related my issue with it.. it exactly sounds like a coin is rattling inside the engine.. the sound is very low when engine is cold.. but as soon as it gets heated the sound increases.. and is higher in upper rpms..
i also closely listened to some videos where a user has shown the coin rattling sound in his fz25.. mine sounds exactly the same.. example:-

Re: Yamaha FZ-16/ FZ-S
Yes. If you succeed in getting a confirmation in this regard over e mail from customer care. Price wise even 7100 is highly priced and probably overkill for a meagre engine like fz so anything priced above it should altogether be avoided.Originally posted by vanp View PostLeave a comment:

Re: Yamaha FZ-16/ FZ-S
This sound is normal in the FZ25. It's an inherent characteristic of the engine. We just aren't used to getting such sounds from our Unicorns/Pulsars/Splendors, etc.Originally posted by vanp View Post
The same sound exists in the Fazer 250 (Brazil)/XT250/XTZ250/XT225/Serow 250, which have similar/same engines.
However, it's not normal in the 150cc FZ range.Last edited by Shashank K R; 04-20-2019, 07:35 PM.Leave a comment:

Re: Yamaha FZ-16/ FZ-S
Like i said you can try LIQUIMOLY Fs oils also they are imported from germany and the oil provides outstanding engine protection & the gear shifts become buttery smooth, Refinement levels increases in the fz.Originally posted by vanp View Post
They also have different types of additives for bikes which are very much worth for a try.Leave a comment:

Re: Yamaha FZ-16/ FZ-S
really bro .. before the first service I asked SVC about this and they said we cannot use other oil .. and once I brought my own motul chain lube and they refused to use it .. does yamaha really agree with using other oil if confirmed via mail?Originally posted by S3maphor3 View PostLeave a comment:

Re: Yamaha FZ-16/ FZ-S
Free to use any oil of recommended grade. You may confirm same from customer care via email. And then asc people won't void your warranty.[emoji106]Originally posted by vanp View PostYes bro I want to give the best treatment to my bike .. if it were for the warranty .. I would have opted for another brand in my next service .. but I want to test my bike for sometime and give yamalube fs a chance .. if nothing works then I'll surely switch brands
Happy Riding to you too

Re: Yamaha FZ-16/ FZ-S
I too felt the same, have patience wait till 4k kilometers for the engine to settle. After that if you are not comfortable with yamalube you can surely go for motul/ shell oil. This is what i experienced in my bike. But, you are free to use any oil, afterall it's your bike .Originally posted by vanp View Post

Re: Yamaha FZ-16/ FZ-S
bro i followed the break in process very religiously as per the manual.. for me the mineral oil doesn't seem to be working.. i think before moving to another brand i'll try the yamaha fs once and see if helps.. if not then i'll move to another brand as suggested by you guysOriginally posted by #bpk View PostLeave a comment:

Re: Yamaha FZ-16/ FZ-S
Actually according to my experience, it's not the oil but it's related to the engine break in process. Previously i had roughness in my engine, so i used honda throttle synthetic oil around 3.5k kilometers but recently at 4.8k kilometers i poured honda mineral oil in 3rd servicing and to my surprise my hornets engine runs more smoother in 260 rupees mineral oil than the 630 rupees synthetic oil. For small engines semi synthetic oil is enough. You can try shell semi synthetic 10w40 or motul 7100, 10w 40 oil if you wish.Originally posted by vanp View PostLeave a comment:
