Hi,

I got my FZ-S this past Monday, but today was the second day I rode her. Couple of points:

1. I noticed that the engine heats up after say about an hour of operation. I have been sticking to the 4-4.5K rpm <=50kmph rule but when I stop my bike after an hour or so I can feel the heat from the engine. Is this okay or am I doing something wrong?

2. When should I start lubricating/cleaning the chain?

I have covered about 40kms until now.

Ideally your not supposed to ride above the 4.5k RPM mark for the first 500km and then the 6k for the next 500km!
its ok if you have the occasional burst breaking this rule but dont make it a habit,try to follow the rule as much as possible.
A new engine heats up more and the smell is normal!
so just dont worry and get through the tough period of Run-In!

Help me out

According to my friends installing NGK Gpower gives better mileage than the stock plug in the Fz-s which is also NGK ! So can someone throw light on this ? Model number ? Price ?

I think kinshuk or Binoy had tried the G-Power. CPR8EAGP-9 is the part number. Also I think they got a small increase in mileage only, not a lot. But I'll welcome whatever I can get

with no loss in power.

I've been using G-Power for quite sometime. Only a bit increase in mileage. Engine runs a bit smoother than with the stock NGK. Never took more than a crank till date to start the bike and no cold start issues till date. My bike is 8 months and 14.5k km old and G-Power is 11k km old.

Price around 200 only.

There is a wrench in the tool kit to remove the plug. Pull the cable connecting the spark plug. Put tha wrench over the plug and put the screw driver through its hole and turn it anticlockwise and its done. Don't overtight when putting it back.

They are not same. G-Power is platinum. Iridium plugs are better than G-Power.
