    • Seat Lamination

      Hi guys,

      Any idea where I can get my Yamaha FZ-S seat laminated in Bombay, preferably somewhere close to JVPD in Andheri (W)? Also, how much would it approximately cost? Or should I get it done from the SVC only?

                  Hey Harsh. The 75k for the FZ-16 was like last year prices. The prices have increased due to the increase in Road tax. So 79k might be decent in Bangalore on-road. I've bought my bike from Pacer Motors. Decent guys. No problems in Sales and delivery. Paid full amount in the morning (11:30) got the bike in the evening (5:30). But registration done only the next day (as the dispatch for registration had already gone that day). Number plates the day after.

                  Overall decent guys. But whoever it is just do a PDI. Pacer actually had 4 FZ-16s when I had gone to purchase, but couldnt do a PDI as I was in a hurry that day. So be sure to take a PDI.

                  Oh. Service are also decent. I dont have any frame of reference but they have addressed all of my issues except a hard gear shift.
                  Everyone falls down, doesn't matter...
                  But its how fast you get up, that matters.....

                    I'm not sure how good the material would stand against rain or water when I'm washing the bike :P

                      79K is on road price while 82K is ex-showroom. so i think the comparison isn't accurate.

                        no 82k was the on road price for the fazer an year ago.... the ex showroom price for the fazer is around 72k and that for fz is 64k, for fzs it is 66k.....

(Which subsides when I'm not riding). I have found it easier to ride without gloves than with! Why are gloves recommended again? :P And is this pain normal or something wrong with my glove fitting? I have these:

                          dude i had the same pain too when i bought my bike... i think it has something to do with your seating posture.... my siting style is usually elbows locked and my back way behind and theres a huge gap between me and the tank... i like riding that way... i used to have the same pain too in the left palm and fingers because of pulling in and holding the clutch.... I bought myself a pair of gloves just like yours and now the pain is gone... and also the gloves lessen the vibration of the bike... really helpful specially when you rip the bike at high RPMs!

                          • guys i think disaster struck me... the thing i feared the most has just happened... the last month ive been loosing air in by rear tyre every 3-4 days... when i check... its gone from 33psi to 16 or 20... ive been filling it up every 3 days... but today morning i spotted a steel thing inside my tyre and it looks like a nail without the head. Can i get the puncture done or do i have to replace the tyre? if i can get the puncture done... are there any specific tools i should ask them to use or could you please suggest the process that normally takes place!

                            Thanks

                              A normal tubeless tyre puncture should do ... if it's just one nail in it ... otherwise there might be a problem .


                              P.S : Guys any idea how much the rear panels of the fazer cost ? want to mod my bike a bit ...
