  • I am thinking of getting rim stripes myself (red for my red fuzzy). So if u hav them already, could u tell me whr u got it? I asked the svc guys abt the rim stripes in the accessories shop. He said fz-s get them prefitted and they don't keep spare ones. Asked me to check in Nanapeth. Need inputs from u if u got smth done... thanks in advance.
    ...........rim stripes are available at vitesse yamaha in bibvewadi if u know where it is or else try the MG rd showroom .......they cost 300 bucks.

              Bro check back on this very thread for your answer ... see if your electricals are working and see if your papers are in order ... I think one member suggested to check the rear wheel balance or alignment by putting it on the main stand and running it in 5th gear , that's all i could think of ... hope it helps


              and yeah , congratulations .

                    from my experience also check for body dents/scratches esp. scratches...mine had quite a few frm transporting,on the mud guard and headlight's case...got it all replaced.

                    best of luck...btw is it S or 16? and which color?

                            yeah that's the best way to do it ... upshift at 4500rpm and downshift at 3500rpm ... I also shift a bit early to conserve fuel ...

                            • just took my fuzzy to 80+ speeds...........and LOVED it.......never felt anything like it......the drubbing exhaust note is just superb and no vibes at all............got 800kms on the odo and planning to go past 100kph after completing 1000kms on the odo.......already completed my 1st servicing...............one thing i want to ask is..... when standing still on traffic lights the bike just shakes a little when i touch my feet down........is this a common thing due to the radial rear?????
