    P.S : Did a 300km roundtrip to dharmapuri and back today , but not on my bike but a friends P220-S ... It feels absolutely same as our bikes , in particular mine now upto 6K RPM ... from there it bloody well takes off like there's no tomorrow .

    P.P.S: Ordered for a flexible tripod stand from ebay , so now i'm inching closer to be able to test out the top whack , with video evidence
    Yamaha does need to get a FZ-26 out asap instead of focusing on scooters (not that scooters are a bad way to go).

    Didnt get how a tripod is gonna help dude. Whatever you do, I hope you got guys supervising it
    Everyone falls down, doesn't matter...
    But its how fast you get up, that matters.....

                • guys another update on the mileage , it's pretty consistent , which is again a good thing for me , no erratic behaviour after the change , the latest one being another 95.8km with 150 bucks worth of fuel at 65.43 a litre , gives me 41.83kmpl ... , completely enjoying this , the only grouse is i have to drop gears to find the acceleration when required and not like the stock where just a twist of the wrist and the beast accelerates ...

                    I guess because of this modification the dimension of the bike will change completely. Waiting for your review of it and please post some pics.

                        No I dont have the pics. Yeah I know its not updated on their website yet. Thats what the dealer told me. He told he that they are gonna update it soon.

                        How many Kms old is your Spark Plug? Looks good to me. As per the manual you should get it replaced at 12K Kms and thats what I did.
