    I purchased a new Iridium Spark Plug today from the Castrol Bike Zone, Shivajinagar, Pune. The cost was 550/- and the number of the plug is: CPR7EAIX-9.

    Will update the performance soon.
    AFAIK the FZ comes with a CPR8 series iridium and is also recommended of the the same series G-spark....rite???
    But u hav got a CPR7 one....i hope u know u are rite....
    cheers...

    • hey guys had been to orion motors today today to get the tyre hugger for the bike , wen i asked the guy there for it , he looked at me like i was some kind of alien , he didn't have a clue , then i tried with tyre guard and even hand gestures , he didn't get it , finally i had to show him from another bike and he then tells me " no sir , we don't have stock " , supposedly will come in three days ... , anywhere else i can get it ? , coz my bike's gettin really dirty , not to mention the chain gathering a truck load of dust , thanks to my daily coll route
      People ask me , why are you cribbing about the BHP ? to them I say "MORE is never ENOUGH" xbhp.com

        Are you planning to install the FZ's tyre hugger onto your R15? I think it comes with the chain cover as a set. May require some drilling on the swing arm to fit, doubt whether the gaps would be correct though.
        I suggest if you want only the tyre hugger, get the XCD125/Stunner's&modify to fit.

          NO NO , the R15's absolutely fine the way it is , i need it for the FZ16 , my earlier one cut in half thanks to a longer than necessary bolt on the saree guard , all due to SVC's negligence ... so i really need a new one , or i have to clean my chain on a daily basis

            Hey nand try Perfect Riders JC Rd. They had boxes of spares coming in when I last visited. So did Pacer. Best would be to get all the numbers from Yamaha India website and call them up before going. Unless u want to do a nice trip of B'lore. Of course they should understand "tyre hugger"

            But its how fast you get up, that matters.....

                hmmm... but apparently it was greek , but anyway i tried the others too , tyre guard , rear mudguard , showed him the hugger finally ,and he was like "oh that , no stock sir" , does pacer hold stock of spare parts , coz thats where i giv my bike for service ??? and it's the closest .

                • Guys what's the mileage between Fazer & FZ-16 in city & highways ?

                  I took fazer for a spin from adarsh(chennai xbhpian) during the meet up in chennai,the bike is good when shifting gears & the amount of torque for the rear wheel is damn good . Now am keen interested in city bike than some performance bike so i may choose this fz bike for my second love.

                          My bike gives around average of 50-52 kmpl,while ripping 48-50 kmpl.With this(fz) 40kmpl on normal riding,it won't suit me..

                          Ps: Thanks for the OT msg
