    well that is my problem isn't it ... I have nop idea what to patch up ... it's never had a puncture ... got this checked everyway possible , got checked for rim bend , beading leakage ... multiple times . still no solution , thats y i came to this conclusion ...

    Changing the tyre is somethin i can't afford right now ... hardly 9k on the ODO .
    plus I still worry if maybe they didn't get the rimbend check done properly .. what if i change the tyre and i still have the problem ... it's driving me nuts ..

      i have a crazy idea.... ask a friend or the svc for another fz tyre use it on your rim and see if it is still leaking... if it is leaking you will need to chk the rim again if its not time to check the tyre...

                  I think the filter should be around 1.5k ... not sure if it's there with the yamaha accessories dept though ... these guys don't even stock up properly on spares for the FZ itself ...

                  My personal opinion - I don't think you can get much gain on performance with just the filter ...

                    yup!!

                    you wont be getting much of a performance gain with a filter in your bike...

                    you might get a bit louder sound and some very little increase in top wack!!
