Squealing sound coming from engine
I own a yamaha fz 16. She's been with me for abt 45k kms. Now my problem is that when ever i go above 5000 rpm range for a long time there occurs a squealing sound from the bottom side of the engine. It usually occurs after i rode a 10 to 15 kms. It happens also when i downshift too when the engine is hot.
Nb: For a year back my bike was with my brother and he drove her for about 8k kms with out changing the engine oil.
Plz help me... Really worried about whats going on with her.[emoji21]Leave a comment:

Re: Yamaha FZ-16/ FZ-S
7100 and 300v would easily last 5+k km. Recommended interval for KTM bikes (7100 comes OEM) with a much more stressed engine used to be 5k km, which they pushed to 7.5k km now. Used to change 7100 at 4.5k km on both FZ and D390 on a safe side.
Yamaha now switched to 10W40 on all bikes except the commuter ones. Now using Yamalube Sporty Premium. Surprisingly good and VFM at 400 per liter and full synthetic. Used to change at 2k (Recommended 3k). Due to time constraints, could not change and crossed 3k km, no harshness or level drop so far (Anyway changing in a day or 2).
(Yamalube SL still comes in 20W40, but Yamaha recommends Optima Prime 10W40 for FZ series).Leave a comment:

Re: Yamaha FZ-16/ FZ-S
I installed hazard 4 indicator switch for my Fz. I was wondering if there is a way to turn the lights on, when bike is ON and Engine is OFF, Turns off automatically when Engine is ON, while still able to use the Hazard switch st any condition...Leave a comment:

Yeah 300v feels lighter on bike, and 7100 produces less heat fumes around engine but engine feels sluggish with 7100.Originally posted by Joel Ashirwadam View PostLeave a comment:

Re: Yamaha FZ-16/ FZ-S
I've heard that 300v is for racing. Which requires much frequent change!Leave a comment:

Re: Yamaha FZ-16/ FZ-S
Use 3100, that's what suits FZ-S. With such usage you better change the oil once every 2 months and oil filter every 4 months or every alternative oil change.Originally posted by Aakash Singh View PostLeave a comment:

Re: Yamaha FZ-16/ FZ-S
Yeah i've been using motul for almost 4 years now but i've always changed it around 2500 km to 3k kms. I have used motul 300v and 7100. But the smoothest experience i had with motul 3100. I was just curious after how many km should i change oil. I drive 65 km per day.Originally posted by Joel Ashirwadam View PostLeave a comment:

Re: Yamaha FZ-16/ FZ-S
Aakash if you are planning to use fully synthetic oil, you can never go back to mineral oil. Try to stay with manufacturer specific 20w40 or 20w50. I personally change the oil a bit prematurely once every two months. Furthermore, it all depends on how much you ride. So even if you leave the bike unused for months you must change the oil once every six months.Originally posted by Aakash Singh View Post
The thing with long drain duration is not possible with the current oil technology for bikes, as they are high revving engines unlike most of the cars. So if you push for 10000 kms per change, you can say goodbye to your engine.
With 50kms per day riding, you can't go over two months, any motorcycle engine oil!
The best oil I've found myself to be happy with is by Motul.Leave a comment:

On potholes my bike's headlight strucks with mudguard. I want to use motul 20w,bhow much fork oil should i put in one side?
After changing piston kit and when breaking period is over which oil should i use 300v 20w50, 7100 20w50 or 7100 10w50. I want longest drain period and please do tell the drain period.Leave a comment:

Re: Yamaha FZ-16/ FZ-S
Check your choke cable, when my choke cable outer layer broke it started to engage the choke everytime I turn right or brake hard.Originally posted by Aakash Singh View PostLeave a comment:

I think you are on lean air fuel mixture, tuneup the carburetor.Leave a comment:
