  • Performance Kit

    Hi guys,
    Please send feedback if anyone installed performance kit for fz.
    Here in delhi, showroom guys won't allow to test ride with upgraded fz, they start the bike and i enjoy the sound only.

      • hey i had this problem too , i asked the guys at yamaha , and they said that it happens if u haven't ridden the bike for a couple of days and then try to start it in the morning , they say the battery charge drops and it needs some time to re-charge by running ... after servicing the problem had vanished .

        • cant be that...i have ridden my bike for the last month..done over a thousand kms....but ya looks like when the battery of my earlier bike was out...

          can it be some problem with the feedback circuit of the bike? like it not being charged while riding?

          • For me what used to happen was , even though the engine kill switch was ON , the engine switching on light used to come on and the instrument cluster backlight used to turn off and then back ON , all in a matter of secs and simultaneously the engine started ... but it didn't sputter . so if u have a similar prob , then ur battery is losing charge , engine sputtering , i'm not so sure

            • the engine sputtering is actually due to the lack of the power in the starter motor to start the bike..that is the sputterin not due to any prblms in the engine ....

              • okay so the battery is at fault . it doesn't have enough charge to start the motor , did u check the level ? ask SVC to charge it and see if the problem goes ... again your assumption about the feedback circuit is also of concern ... that could be the problem .

                    I dont know about bosch. But already yamaha is using ngk on fz. So go for ngk with higher plugs like g-power or iridium rather than bosch. If somebody has used bosch just show him some light.
