    • This is slightly off topic,but thanks to mindgrinder for the shop recommendation(Tyre Park,Opp Punjab & Sind bank,JC road,B'lore) I found out that the puncture job done by the Yamaha SC guys(Panache,B'lore) was not good as they had not removed another nail which was lodged between the ridges.The tyre park guys did a very commendable job & i would highly recommend them for any tyre related issues/problems.I switched to Nitrogen on the both the tyres(He charged me for only one )

        • I was facing a problem and i didn't noticed it....

          today one of my friend (who rides a FZ too) met me,we swapped our bikes,
          His bike seems more powerful,but i don't know the reason about this,
          then after our ride he told me, "your bike seems less powerful then mine"
          I was shocked...then what he did was very simple,
          he just started the bike, then left it idle, loosen the RPM screw and, told me to take a ride..
          man my bike was back...
          he told me RPM screw was Tighter then the recommended RPM rating....
          how silly it was...
          have any one here checked their IDLE RPM rating...
          before setting mine was 2000, and now its 1400...

          • For those who are having problem with shifting from 2nd to neautral, try doing blipping of throttle. Give slight throttle and immediately shift the gear. It would help smooth transition of gears.

                                Buddy. How did you get those International-style plates for your bike..?
                                Are they available at the RTO itself..?
