  • I mostly shift up clutchless and sometimes down too. The clutchless downshift is not possible when I blip the throttle. I have been shifting this way for many years now in all the bikes I ride without any problem.

          FZs... As in more than one?? In either case why?? You'd get more powerful bikes there... Perfect chance to lay your hands on a Ninja or a GSX...

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

              Are you going there temporarily? or shifting residence? You will have to look up the import/registration and transfer laws over there.

              Nope, my friend just bought a second hand 125 for like 1200-1500 pounds.

              And you have license restrictions there. So first time bike riders, get a 125cc license, then a 250 cc after some time, and then after about 3 years or maybe lesser, you get a open class license, which allows you to ride bikes of all capacities.

                absolutely right arya, no point in shifting gears without the clutch and scewing the gearbox...
                love your bike.. use the clutch.!!
                LOL

                        I don't know about the castrol but the 'motul' is one of the best oil for our fz's

                            • Guys have a problem with my rear tyre , i got a puncture a few days back , the wider part of the object went in to the tyre first and it happened to go into the groove , so wen i got it fixed the strip wasn't able to cover the entire length of the puncture , so now the air is still leaking out , what do i do ?

                              the puncture being in the tyre groove also is creating a problem . the strip is unable to cover it properly .
                              People ask me , why are you cribbing about the BHP ? to them I say "MORE is never ENOUGH" xbhp.com

                              • ^^ if lucky, sometimes you can fix such cuts with two layers of the puncture sealing sticks. But many times it is not possible. Anything longer than 1/4 fo an inch is difficult to fix.

                                If you cannot switch to a new tyre, you can run with a tube in it.
