        somebody asked what the fz looks like with the fz-s visor but without the side brackets ... pic attached of that too ...

        EDIT : the above "discovery" , was for the front alone , the same problem occurs on my rear as well , so i have a suspect , pic attached ... this was a puncture that was fixed wen the head of a nail went in first , so at first this covered the entire groove , but after a lot of riding it's like this now , so could this be a cause ?

        Again pour soapy water on the area that you suspect and observe for bubbles. That is the only way. Puncture in the grooves is really a pain. Didnt you a mushroom cap fix for this??
        Everyone falls down, doesn't matter...
        But its how fast you get up, that matters.....

          I tried but no bubbles from that region , i'm just wondering if it's too small a leak to be detected that way ... no the SVC did the normal fix on it ...
          People ask me , why are you cribbing about the BHP ? to them I say "MORE is never ENOUGH" xbhp.com

              • My FZ got a month old today. Since I fractured my collar bone, I couldn't ride it much. I has been ridden only 150 km. The manual says that the first service should be at 1000km or 30 day from purchase. Should I get it serviced or ride it more????????

                  you should get it serviced because you wont be able to avail the firs free service once it passes and also you might want to skip the oil change....

                  • what is the max mileage that FAZER 150 owners can expect ?

                    Guys,
                    I own a FAZER 150, which I got for myself about a month ago.
                    I have no complaints with the bike. The bike's handling is superb, and so is its acceleration and sound. But the thing that makes me worry is that it's mileage is pretty too low for a bike in that category.

                    I am currently getting a mileage of 32-34 kmpl approx.
                    Before FAZER I had Pulsar150 DTSi, I had a lot of other complaints about that bike but never thought about the mileage.

                    What is the max mileage you guys get ?? Can any1 suggest me a way to improve the mileage to 40 kmpl ?

                    I serviced my bike about a week ago but still the mileage didn't improve that much, I am currently staying at pune.

                      i get an average of 40-42kmpl but yeah you cannot compare the average of fazer or fz for average with other bikes as these bikes are not tuned for average....

                        Thats what i get for my FZ too.
                        The only option you have is to ask your SVC to tune it for mileage but you will lose some power.

                          ......32-34 is good......i get 28-30kpl.....that's because of my high revving riding style.....if you're riding within 55-60kph you should be getting more.....the SVC guys will de-tune it for you.....but then you'll lose power...

                          • Would there be any issues if the handle bar of FZ16 is chromed. I intend to change the color from black to chrome.If yes, are chromed FZ handle bars available in market?

                              • @jacob - send a email to yamaha, or call up their customer care, and complain regarding the non availability of parts at the dealership. Thats the only way to fix the dealer for good.
