Bro,

for more info on the power up kits and FFEs check out :.Welcome To Race Concepts.:. try and get in touch with our expert tuner joel joseph may be he would help in this query. My suggestion is a complete no no on this K&N one...

If you still feel that you just want the poser value 'roar' and are willing to compromise on your bike's FE and long term performance and health, please post your query in this appropriate thread: http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/universa...al-thread.html

cheers

thanks a lot shv18. that was exactly what I was looking for.

That is the same thing that concerned me that is y I asked Sunjay Kumar what was the reason behind this and what did he do about this problem..

guys, im new to xbhp but not to biking. this site is awesome

. congratulations to all other yamaha fz owners. i have a query. my bike is about 1k kms old. i want to improve its sound characteristics. i dont want aftermarket exhaust systems. i would prefer performance filters because of their intake roar. the bike remains silent until you rip it. i love that sound on my friends cbz extreme. im ready to fit the k&n rc1060 filter, except, i dont know the proper jet size to upjet to

. some magazines say increase the jet size by 10. ex:if the stock one is 100 upjet it to 110.

has anyone done the proper upjetting. if so, then wats the best jet size and its price

...

if there is already a thread or link for this info, can u pls share it with me

.
my first priority is sound. the performance is just a bonus i feel.

pls help me out guys.

No need to put any mod,just ride it at speed of more than 110 for nearly 7-8 km at a stretch,Fz will definitely be producing some deep grunt & it will stay forever even at low rpm.My personal xperience.& FYI I am still getting 43 km/ltr from the day 1 I bought my Fz with no negetive effect on engine.Running strong for nearly 2 years.And about the grunt I put my video in here at some post I cant remember though.You search it in here.

one or two times is okay until the first service.

while revving means on the move or stand still??

**bilalans** · 07-13-2011, 03:08 AM

I will be attatching a phone charger on the bike pretty soon.. then the better sounding horns and pirelli SD are next!!

Hi Alto,
When the bike is running, those parts get heated enough to turn the water into heat, so do not worry about rust & also the thickness is more so won't cause any issues otherwise Yamaha would have thought of something else

. One suggestion try not to park the bike in open when it is raining to avoid rusting. Check the bolts & nuts (the ones which are galvanised) for rusting.

just give it some throttle while on the main stand and also do a fly-by where someone holds the camera while you ride past him. that will give a more realistic feel to the grunty sound.

I am too much depressed ....again met with an accident today..again a shit head ricksaw from opposite side changed its lane I somehow manged to turn the bike out ward and saved me and the bike but at last my bike's silencer touched the end of ricksaw and it completely shattered i jus changed it last month(it was another ricksaw who caused it).this bike is like my gf I can't take this anymore thinking of leaving her..I'll leave riding..

**Stark23** · 07-13-2011, 10:10 PM

So today I was comparing The FZ-S with the new 2011 FZ,I found the change in note of engine startup! It's much like those superbikes notes i.e Honda CBR 600RR !! Does the engine startup note depend on spark plug?

P.S: Those who have the new edition FZ kindly check the spark plug make.
