        Iam rajesh from bangalore, i own a fz16 (mar-09) and not much of a modification done just a xenon lamp fitted, custom made crash guard and got the complete bike lacquered. Pictures at comet garage ver V11 complete overhauling. Had been to muthathi and did a little bit of offroading. just been to thattekad (kerala) about 1200 km on 13 jan for three days, the bike behaved really well and the handling is spontanies took sharp bends it was really stable i think the pictures would do rest of the talking, pic at Blr-thattekad bird sanctuary.
        I want to know if the daytona kit is worth fixing in the bike, pls let me know thee reviews....

        Cheers
        Rajesh

        The complete daytona kit would cost around Rs. 16000. also the silencer looks like a small pipe as compared to the present one.
        I don't know in detail but the kit offers around 20% of performance increment. I don't think its worth for that much amount
        I suggest you go for the k & n filter and iridium spark plug which will cost around 2k. and would also be favourable to mileage.

        • Has anyone tried fitting the k & n filter? what is the change or is it worth its 1.5k price tag?

            K&N has served diff. experience to everyone,mostly ppl have chucked it our after a while,even i had plans for it but after reading a lot i learned tht you got to be lucky or else K&N will only ruin your engine in the long run,after all i doubt if it gives a considerbale difference anyway.

                • - went to yamaha showroom in wakdewadi, pune yesterday and they confirmed that if i can get the 'maintenance free' R15 battery from an amco showroom, then it would be possible for them to get both the lights of my fazer working

                  - Also, they mentioned that i would not get a crash guard installed on my bike since fazer doesnt have that facility... any info on that guys??

                      why would you want to go for 3.5Ah batteries from R15? Fazer has a more powerful 5 Ah batteries. Get yourself a 5Ah maintainence free batteries from outside instead.

                      Stock batteries on Fazer are not great, They are Minda batteries, not sure about R15 make.

                            most of the people have told the same the cost for putting daytona is not worth the performance, but don't know how the k&n will behave. my cousin has put iridium pulg in his Zma not much of a difference than stock,have to try on the fz.
                            Well i was very close to ur place thattekad about three weeks ago...

                                dude,spark plugs don't improve the bikes performance!!!
                                they improve cold starting etc!
