    I was standing in a traffic today a riksaw was trying to cross me a bolt jutted out from his wheel got stuck in between the gap of the white and black part of the exhaust cover and he pulled it so the cover got scratched and the black part from the gap got pilled and bend outward.I'm frustrated of this idiots on road.
    HISTORY IS NOT ABOUT WHO IS RIGHT BUT ABOUT WHO WRITES IT.......

      Roads are full of dolts for which we have to suffer.
      When my bike fell down I was so much depressed that I just could not see who was driving the car only looking at what has happened to my bike.

        • Sprocket for FZ16.

          I am a FZ owner for almost 3 years now. The bike really is amazing. It looks radical, handling is sweet, its great in the city, and is great value as an overall package. However lets accept that one is not going to always ride it within city limits. On the highway once past 90km/hr it struggles to get past over 100km/hr with the same ferocity it gathers speed at lower revs. I know its not ment for topend performance. It did manage to do 115km/hr on the speedgun with a speedo indicating 128km/hr on 2km long straight and the vibs are really annoying at those speed. I came across "sprocketing" as one of the most easiest problem to address the FZ's topspeed speed and vibrating issues. But the shops in Thane and some parts in Mumbai are unable to help me. They are insisting on buying the whole Honda Unicorn kit which costs around Rs1000/- in Thane. Can any of you who has done this mod in Mumbai....guide me on this issue and also on possible location for making purchases.

            the all new black one does look good with the fz.... along with that if your budget permits why dont you go for an all black treatment?? get the silver side panels also converted to black....

              I believe we all should pester RanjithMN to post his results on thread asap..

              Hi Shv18 & Ranjith,

              Any update on the Joel's exhaust?
              I'm planning to buy it in next week.

                          Neither you nor your sister fell. The bike was still faithful to you both, inspite of the rough&wet surface.
                          Your feelings have gone into the bike buddy, it will not disappoint you I'm sure.
                          Take your sister out more often&no need to be over cautious-you tend to make mistakes when doing so.

                                Just stay calm, do other activities, other daily works. After some days take your bike out and go for a ride(if possible with friends but ride single). Then after some days not on rainy day take your sister with you. Everything will become fine as time passes by. Now just don't think about the incident.
