    I got recommendation from one of my friend who is owning Fazer to use Castrol Activ Xtra (SAE 20W-50 ) instead of Yamatube.

    Is it recommended to use ??? My bike is 150 KM old now, will it affect my warranty if I used it ???

    Thanks...
    I would recommend to stick with yamalube until you have those free services,after that ask the service workshop guys,if they have no problem with it then go for it.

      BTW some images in their site do have our mono-shock!
      Yup they don't have suspension settings as we do They've directly posted our pics of Indian FZ in their site so it looks so, Google it out you'll find it out that all the Bysons have different suspension from ours.

        Those byson would definitely be getting more mileage then our Fz as they have lighter tyres with less width and all.

          yes they will b gtng more mileage also bcoz their ps is little less than indian Fz i.e we have 14 ps & they have 13.something.its given in their website.& their Byson has adjustable mono suspension.look carefully in the pics of website..

            you can also go for Motul Mineral oil 20W 40. It will keep your engine cooler and also costs the same as Yamalube.

              Technically , yamalube is just re-packaged motul ... so you can let the SVC do their job and put in yamalube mineral itself ...
