    Hey friends..
    I have some issues..

    I have 2012 FZ-S 38500 kms running. Top speed as of now is 98-100 kmph without pillion. It used to go upto 122-125 kmph max. Once it touched 131 as well. But now it goes to max 100 only. Pickup also decreased significantly. Mileage is around 35-38(local) to 40(long run)all the time. Previously is was returning 40-42(local) to 46+(long run) with decent speed of 60-70 kmph. Riding style and distance covered now and than is same.
    Bike has New Rear tyre, battery, Motul 7100 10w40, front fork refill, clutch wire, spark plug, air filter, chock wire, plus all basic maintenance with original parts only. But my bike never went through deep cleaning or decarbonising. Does it really make any difference if it is done.

    1. How to clean carburettor and how many turns anticlockwise from locking position to get optimum tuning? Many people says that it is 3 full rotations anticlockwise.. or any specific amount of turns???

    2. How to properly decarb engine from inside?

    I have searched and found people saying for cleaning carburettor with fuel treatment additives without opening it. Just mix it with petrol in patrol tank and run the bike. It will automatically clean the carburettor. Is it really effective or one should do it physically by opening the carburettor and cleaning it?

    Secondly... Is it really effective to flush engine carbon deposite, Gum formed inside with the use of any engine flushing fluids. Anyone tried them?? Does they harm engine anyhow or they are really meant to enhance the performance??

    Please suggest me effective brands of fluids/cleaners and Process of solving above asked problems...

    All the suggestion and advices are welcome..
    Thanks in advance..

    Decarbonising is important. Thanks to our internationally acclaimed fuel quality the cylinder head gets clogged again and again. I would suggest cleaning the head. Have it opened at the local mechanic, get your valves polished, guides checked and head cleaned using lathe.

    Also, use a decent carb spray to clean your jets every 7,500 kms to 10,000 kms. It's more effective than any additive. Get your clutch plates checked as well. If they are close to wearing out, change them. Steel plate as well if needed.

    Cpr8eagp-9

    After a lot of reading here I finally got the Gpower spark plug for my Fazer V2 from a reputed website and I suspect it to be a fake one/ Not genuine.
    Could anyone post a picture of a genuine CPR8EAGP-9 model spark plug please.
    Thanks in advance.

    PS:ODO- 34000 KM ,And the OEM spark plug was NOT giving me any problems ,just for the sake of improved mileage and performance,I upgraded it to G power.

    Your charging system is the Tap and the Battery is the Bucket.

    So in short, using a bigger bucket is pointless as long as the output of the tap remains the same.

    What is average life of a battery? Mine is 4 years old and ran 30000 Kms. Now its taking some seconds to light the instrument console after ignition switched on.
