    Hey guys i found useful stuff for upgrading FZ. This i got from "Chinmay Dangre". He is a good performance tech. He told me the things you need to upgrade as follows:

    1.Plug = 550Rs. (NGK Iridium)
    2. K&N filter(RC1060) = 1790/-
    3. Cable = 300/- (Chinese but better than Indian stuff)
    4. Crank breathing filter = 70/-
    5. PAV filter = 70/-
    6. Jet = 200/- (The jet size u will have to tell me, since I have not w orked on FZ for jetting so I can't recommend u proper number)
    7. Courier = app. 300Rs. (depends on weight and volume)
    8. Sprocket for stunting = app. 1500 to 2000Rs.
    9 Front disc brake hose (high performance) Teflon based steel braided pipe. = 1000Rs. app.
    10. ABS for front disc = 1250/-

    I wanted to really do this but right now i cant spend that much money. If anybody intersted can try these parts.

    I have put NGK Iridium Plug today. The pickup as increased, still dont know about topend & milege & also i have Philips Diamond Vision 5000k 60/55W bulb which has really good vision. MAN AFTER SPENDING 75000K for the bike, still cant take enough out of this.

              Has anyone used K&N filters on FZ ... any improvement?
              AFAIK..to install a rear disc on FZ you will have to change the rear rim....
              maybe the r15 one...maybe not....dunno....but it will be expensive...

              Are you using that bulb on stock battery wiring or have you done any mods......how's the battery working???
              Also did you check whether the Iridium is for FZ or not....

                Dunno if i am wrong, but i personally feel the FZ-16 does not require a disc brake at the rear. It would simply add more weight and inertial momentum to the rear wheel for no significant improvement in braking over what the drum brake offers. The R15 rear brake also feels overwhelming to the response.

                Thats maybe why the indonesian/malaysian version of the R15 does not come with a disc at the rear, its only for india that they have given it to compete with the similar P220.

                  I think there is no IRIDIUM plug available from NGK for the FZ - 16. The part finder in the NGK india site shows up only the conventional and G-POWER one.

                  Where did you get the plug from?

                    Even i thought there is no iridium. But there are 2 types of them. One with short screw and long one. Fz normal ngk has long screw type. Only those can be fitted. The mechanic who replaced told me this. I too was suprised to see this. But surely i am getting good performance and slight increase in speed. About the bulb, it just replacement of stock bulb. Fz is a DC bike remember. I have not faced any problem with battery. I am using this from past 2 months. I will try to post some pics of light colour.

                        Rear disc For Fz

                        I found out that a rear disc of the Fz will cost 10k which is also a waste of time and money.....It will take 1 week to get it fixed but can any one tell me what's the point putting a rear disc on the bike....
