        I din change the chain yet, new one is with me. Changed the brake liner at 16k km. Service guy said chain is gone as it was making occasional clicking noise, but working fine. I booked for chain that time because of this, but the chain is wrkin fyn. So din change and decided to wait and see.

          Recommended by Yamaha to change at 10k km, but I changed only at 12k km.

                contact joel from xbhp for a free flow exhaust for fz....

                for others you can go for the performance exhaust provided by yamaha but that will be very costly

                also you can check out with the editor of bike india

                    i hope you know the difference which a FFE can do...

                    the true speed will increase at max by arounf 5-6kmph and the 0-60kmph time will drop by around 1-1.5 secs....

                    although the sound will increase, it is totally subjective whether you like it or not....

                            Yep, that clack-clack sound is because your chain is at the end of the adjustment, means your chain is loose.
                            But 15k on the odo means your chain set should be fine for another 10k kms at least! Hard to believe that it is gone this soon!
                            Hmm... ok, try to have a look on your chain and sprockets. Check whether the teeth of the sprockets are bend slightly anti clockwise. And check that it is truly the end of the adjustment too!
                            If the teeth are bend and worn out, and it is really the end of the adjustment, it should change, but this soon..... hard to believe. Even low quality chain sets might last upto 25k
                            Anyway, oil the chain, lubricate it well for the time being!

                                It depends on the amount of wear your tyre has. my rear tyre lasted upto 27000kms without much of a problem and the front tyre is also in a descent condition after 33000kms...
