      As I have FZ-S it's headlight got something in Side too so should I paint it black or yellow??

      And before painting will it he have to take the paint off??

      And what will be the approx cost?

      Stickers most prob...
      I think head painiting the head lights with black will add up to the looks..
      you can get it done not with less than 3K
      If u are having an yellow FZ-S you can save some amt

It cost me say around 10k to get it done..

            this is done by GRZ Customs and they charges 4-8k for custom paint jobs.

            • The weird happenings continues.....
              I filled 2.9 litres of petrol for Rs.150 from a "trusted" petrol pump. The mileage indication was 36-37kmpl. ( This included zipping at 70 km/hr for around 8-10km).
              I went to the same pump and filled exactly 1 litre of petrol. The mileage is now 47kmpl.

              Is there a problem with the fuel or with the tripmeter or with the bike?

              Another problem I have noticed is the increasing sound with the chain.
              Is a tighted or loosened chain favourable?
              Reduce 1 km/hr speed, add 1second 2 ur life.

              • ^^^ when testing mileage try not to test with just 1 liter petrol. Try with 3-4 liters every time. That gives you a more sensible average.

                The chain should have 20 to 40 mm slack.

                        No offence but copying other bike's is kinda lame. Get you own paintjob.
                        It's not what you ride, it's your attitude that counts.

                            I would say if the part no. is the same as the one displayed on the NGK website, then it shouldn't be any issue.
                            Just because you haven't seen it doesnt mean its impossible...expect the unexpected.

                              Actually in NGK website there is no Iridium IX for FZ... when i showed it to the SVC guys they told me it is ok the spark plug tip will be same and the heat range will be a lil different... there won't be any complaints... don't know what will happen

                                Oops,
                                yeh just checked, its only the conventional and the G-power thats available.
                                But thats seem strange, the planet DSG guys have ti, why doesn't the NGK website
