    No,actually it depends on both the Time and KM's.Once the oil is opened from the bottle,it will degrade as time passes by...so even if you have only ran 100km on a new oil in 3 months...you have to get it changed.

      LOL. No idea. Will give a complete update when i get it done.



      Actually stupid of me not to get his name. I aint never going to that place if he isnt around to take my complaints...
      Hmmm ... my bike turns ONE today , happy b'day FZ !!!

      That apart , I was referring to the rear fender ... the extension on the virtually non-existent rear mud-guard

      About the speedo replacement , keep us posted , would really like to know what that is about ...

      Fair , round with specs guy ? coz he's the only one that knows what he's talkin bout I guess ... if yes , then it's Mr.Kiran ... he's not always around , when he's there though , service is much better ...
      People ask me , why are you cribbing about the BHP ? to them I say "MORE is never ENOUGH" xbhp.com

          No problem buddy, carry the temp.registration certificate copy with you till you get the permanent no. Cops are on the watchout for TR vehicles, so make sure you have it with you always!
          On the other hand, if you don't even have the TR no., you can be fined upto 3 times of the road tax amount!

          • who gives this temp reg certificate
            coz the dealer gave me invoice n insurance papers only
            is there any other document i should have collected at the time of purchase

            • you can run upto 30 days without one is what I heard , wen i posted the same query ... The tax paid invoice is important ... that should do till u get the number ...

                  dats right! 1 month with Temp registration is allowed after that permanent number must be there!

                      • Most of the Cops themselves dont know the rules.
                        I was caught few days back and was asked to pay a fine of 100Rs because i dont have a Non-Pollution Certificate...i told tht guy several times tht my bike isnt 1 year old yet but told be "After 6 months you need a Certificate"....but luckily the senior officer who was writing the fine cleared tht only after 1 yr i need it....thts how these ppl roll.
                        anyway im not sure abt how many days you can ride with TEMP but its at least a week i guess...

                            • Update on the Recall. It is infact for a lot of bikes. All FZs only.
                              And the Speedometer is for the fuel guage. The other parts are Torsion spring, push lever, return spring. No clue what those are. The guy whom I talked to said that they are "bike parts".

                              Bad experience for me though. I called the SVC place(Pacer Motors Bangalore) yesterday asking if I could come over. The dude said today mechanics are on leave and come tomm. Today I landed up there and asked for it. They tell me the parts have'nt even come to the SVC yet. I was super pissed. I blast the dude who calmly tells me to come later. He then calls another guy (Gajendra), this is the dude who took my service last time and did a good job. He explains to me that the parts are yet to come and asked me who called me over there. I didnt know the guy whom I spoke to. End of story I came away super pissed with no new parts .

                              Any of you guys know what Torsion spring, push lever, return spring are please enlighten me.
                              Everyone falls down, doesn't matter...
                              But its how fast you get up, that matters.....

                                bro, can you get information on what fz16 serial nos or identification numbers are affected? really would help us to know.

                                what is the reason why they want to change those parts? will our bike be a road hazard if these parts where not replaced.

                                thanks in advance
