    [QUOTE=Jitendra47499;1353985]Hi,
    Has anyone tried ackrapovic or ixil exhaust in their fz machines?
    I am stuck between himalayan ( i only hear negative reviews about it) and fz. If i get fz i would surely like to replace the exhaust to ackrapovic or ixil after some time What is the response of the motorcycle with these exhausts? I dont want too much loud but something nice sound

    Will this fit yamaha? And make the same sound?
    No point in going for any of the imported exhausts as they cost a bomb and even afterwards your bike sounds like a tractor being a single cylinder.

    Motul 300V is overkill i feel. Costs a bomb and doesn't justify using it in 150cc bike.

    Motul 7100, Shell AX7, BPCL NXT, Veedol (dont remember the name) are good. Have tried them personally.

    I will stick to recommended oil grades only no deviation. Bike feels more relaxed with motul 7100 10w40. Even motul 300v is also there in 10w40 so was just wondering if it will assist the cause any further.

    Post 1st service bike ran pretty smooth for short journeys though in longer ones it feels a pretty harsh. No vibes though. So trying to ditch Yamaha lube.

    That's 1 of the youtube channel who did the experiment.

    Better oil than Yamalube.

    If you get hands on Shell oil AX7, try that. I find Shell better than Motul & Yamalube.

    There is a way to ease this difficulty, book the tyre online at mrf website and opt for a nearby mrf dealership.
