But i think the monster can take the beating well... I do take care of him like anything, but i just cant resist to open the throttle, gosh i hate myself for this!!!
    Btw I read in some posts that the RVM do not give the adequate view or so, i find it perfect but i want to change them to RTR's one they are pretty sharp and will surely gel with the looks of FZ.

    One question though, any idea how can i fix a Red backlit LCD display or for that matter just change the backlit of the display to red (just like the Suzuki GS 150)?
    Changing the display color i not too easy, the color is emitted by small diodes and if you have a friend who repairs cell phones he can help you, the diodes are the size of the ones which you see in cell phone displays, easy available but costly, dont ask how much. I had once got the white diodes on my cell phone changed to blue.

      Oh! that must be the same as of FZs as they are the same but the head Fairings. Though can be a bit less coz of the extra weight added to the bike.!

      Please Correct me if 'm wrong.

                    I think it will not ruin the engine! But a little effect will be seen in the pistons after few years, I guess!

Can you please email Mr Abrahim as well and tell him the response you are getting. This will actually help him to go deep into this matter. I am Shocked to hear that in a prime city such as Bangalore, we couldnt fing any one who does a Mushroom puncture and to be honest Both Yamaha as well as MRF are equally responsible. Does the user manual that we use provide any details regarding this? The anser is NO. and not only this, i am very sure that even Yamaha guys are not even aware of whats happening.. U start speakn about Mushroom puncture and all they know is that that sort of fix is only done on sports bikes and selected cars... They are more than just ignorant

                      I am sure that puncture in ur bike is just a normal puncture (2-3 mm in diameter).. and this can very easily be repaired by a Mushroom fix (provided you find 1 in Bangalore).

                      Good to hear that u ve atleast find 1 place where u can fix ur puncture permanently. I ve suffered a lot from this guys and cannot tell u how bad it feels when ur touring with ur GF on ghats and suddenly realize that air pressure is 15psi.

                      Let me know if i can do anything. Thx
                      i called Madhus tyre today before going the funny thing is he told me sir we only have normal puncture not mushroom one for tubeless tyre! WTF yamaha gonna call paul again on monday. Btw how many are running bike on stem puncture and faced problem?
