    [quote=travis31;158486]Hi Anirudh,
    I've had the issue a few times but its usually when shifting from neutral to 1st or 2nd.When i shift from neutral to 2nd,the gear engages but falls back to neutral.I've given it for my 1st service today,will update if this still occurs

    Thanks[/quo
    from wat i ve heard giving for free service only increases problems of bike
    my fz has done 110 kms, decided not to give for 1st free service

      That's a revelation...

      the upgrades for FZ16 r to be released on 3rd Feb. could get more info other than that there r air intake systems, brake calpers, handle clips and foot rests. there might be more he said. lets hope they have engine upgrades also.
      Looks like you haven't seen the post about the accessories for the FZ! Was it in this thread??? I have emailed the photos to Pearl Yamaha last week and until then they were unaware of the details (they knew accessories were coming in but not the details!)

      You seem to have a misconception. Please don't do that. Make sure your bike attends the free services... if there are any niggles, get them sorted with another visit but not going for service would mean not attending the minimum problems, apart from voiding the warranty!

        sometimes bike gives odd mileage too, well i dont know abt FZ all my frnds are getting 42-45, but i know one issue while owning a pulsar, a guy with 180 pulsar was getting 55kmpl, in service i came to know he had some carburettor issue and he lacked power. I hope the same is not with your FZ

          Dn kno much about this, but I was getting average of about 45 before first service, and now, almost 1 month after first service, its mere 35.

          I communicated this to mechanic, and he said that after first service, bike will definetely drink more fuel for initial 2-3 weeks, and then, average will improve..

          Any Idea/comments on this?

              Just got back the bike from first service,the gearshifting niggle is gone now.Feels great to drive above 50,although feeling vibrations when touching 75kmph.

                  I think anything below 70 Kmph will be fine after run in for this baby... I mean, for that around 40 kmpl.

                    A near accident!
                    I was riding around 50kmph in a plain stretch of road alongside beach... a by some beautiful urge raised the throttle and the bike zoomed to 80. I was enjoying the smooth power and awsome pickup when suddenly a parked car turned on to road! [:O] Its 8 PM and nearly dark and that stupid didnt even switch on his light! I squeezed my brakes (more so on the front disc) and almost did a stoppie! God, I was lucky! I skidded to a complete halt in around (I dont know exactly) 1 or 2 metres... My heart is thumping and I shouted at the driver and got off the bike. The driver is a lady still talking on her mobile! And by hell she is smiling... she waved a sorry and pulled off -- still on mobile!! I have no words! Noted her car number, but dont know what to do with it.
                    Its my lucky day! Thank god I am driving my FZ16 and not my old HH Glamour which would have been a disaster. Grateful I chose FZ16 over apache rtr, grateful I was wearing a helmet...

                      Hey guys, i just got my FZ 16 today & the bike has been real good, of whatever little I rode today. The problems with the bike have already started. The problems are:

                      1. There is some kind of sound coming, I'm not sure as to where it's coming from.
                      2. The rear brake light switch is already loose, I mean the spring is dilly dallying.
                      3. The rear view mirrors are not evenly placed. I mean one is a little front & the other is a little behind.
                      Rest is all fine as of now.

                      CHEERS,
                      G D
                      PEACE

                        hmm.. looks like this is ur first bike..
                        1. the sound is prolly from the front disc which is normal..
                        2.the brakelight spring is meant to be that way.. dont worry ,it wont fall off..
                        3.misaligned rear view mirrors is not a manufac. defect.. theyre fixed by the local dealer.. moreover u can realign them urself which i believe u already know?

                          Mr. Yamdoot, don't worry, this is not my FIRST BIKE. If you have to see my Bikes ridden list here it comes, Kinetic Honda, Shogun, R E Lightning 500, P 180 classic, which I just sold & picked up the FZ. Regarding the problems that I have mentioned I went to the showroom & had them fixed today in about 20 minutes. The point is that when the bike is new & the very first day it has these problems however small they may be, they are there. When you take delivery of a new Bike you don't expect these sort of problems do you ? I thought YAMAHA would be better as compared to the others in terms of QUALITY. That's why I went in for a YAMAHA, & yes your guess is correct, this is my first YAMAHA. I hope this covers all your doubts if any about the bike.

                          CHEERS,

                              @GD76.. good to know u have ridden so many bikes in the past which would obviously give a DIY experience to the dumbest rider.. its only the kind of questions u asked did make me feel u were a newbee.. anyways, ride safe n chill !
                              P.S- did u say u sold the shogun to buy an FZ?

                                I have fixed K&N RC1060 airfilter and NGK iridium Spark plug on on my Fz few days back. Performance bacome better...but after 7k rpm it is jerking (before it was touching 9K easily) so im not able to achieve the max performane.
