Very ingenious brake caliper with the master cylinder integrated into it!

How do I know if my fz's rear wheel is punctured? Bcos I had filled it with full air 33ps and now the ride feels like the air is less in the back wheel. What would be the distance the bike runs with puncture? Also my mileage has drastically decreased from 45-48 to 36 and then 40. Is this connected? My chain is a little more tight when I gave it for last serviceReduce 1 km/hr speed, add 1second 2 ur life.Comment

If you are ready to shell out 50K ready cash why can't you take a 20K loan? that's my choice... i don't like buying second hand...Originally posted by tann View PostHI everone.. i really like yamaha FZ a lot and im planning to buy a used FZ16..

if u can get it for a 45k then it would be a steal...do this ask the owner to fill half a litre and ride about and see..if the mileage is round 40kmpl then its a good bike...i say this as fz is already not so good on the mileage department...if the mileage has further dropped from 40 then the bike has deteriorated....Originally posted by tann View PostHI everone.. i really like yamaha FZ a lot and im planning to buy a used FZ16..

my SVC guy even told me to look out for my own local mechanic if i am hell bent on using Petronas 5000 instead of the Yamalube semi which is not of FZ'z recommended grade....
Guys shall i put the 15w50 semi yamalube or go for the Petronas 10w40.....of course he says my bike warranty will be void then
.....
Servicing is due in a day or two....any suggestions????Comment

Today i went to leave my bike for service, I told him, i have done 2 punctures last time but air still keeps loosing to around 20 psi in 10 days. He advised me to put pulsar tube. Guys let me know any of you are using pulsar tube? does it change road grip?---------------------

Are you sure the puncture has been repaired correctly? Are you sure there are no new punctures? Have you checked the rim flange where the tyre sits for damage? Being tubless, the tyre depends on the rim for an airtight seal.Originally posted by shamanthnv View Post
Putting a tube in a tubeless tyre will reduce the life of the tyre. The handling may or may not be affected.Comment

What is the process for changing oil if we are going from mineral to synthetic.. Just remove the old one and put in new or is some flushing required?Comment

ya, i have told the service person to check for more punctures today. Can we fill the anti-puncture solution into this tyre like the one in Honda?Originally posted by iamvik View Post---------------------

Don't forget to check the valve for leakage. Easiest way: apply saliva on the valve and wait to see if a bubble is formed.
The puncture sealant in Honda vehicles won't work since they use a dual layer tube with the gap between them filled with the sealant. If the problem repeats despite not finding any punctures or leakages, it could mean that there's a problem with the tyre.
The worst case would be a leak in the wheel itself because of either a manufacturing defect or damage.Comment

Dude how did you got your puncture repaired tell me that?? I had the same problem that the air kept losing every 2 day.. I changed the puncture waala and he used some other method to repair the puncture and now the puncture problem is solvedRiding, loving and enjoying my lord of the streets.. FZ-S...
