Nope. It's kinda custom size by MRF, only option. But 70 profile tyre will save rims

ContiGo is available at 140/80 17 not 140/70 17

It's available in 140/70 only.

Michelin Motorcycle Tires
Michelin 140/70 17
but the site says ContiGo is available in 140/80 17

Michelin got very limited model lineup in India

140/70 should be available with honda and other tyre dealers within a month or so because it is being used in the cbr250. so hopefully we will get another option apart from revz and pirelli sd.

but regarding other things stated by digitalD. i dont have a problem.

i am yet to change the front and rear brakes, have changed the air filter once that too at 12000km. just one puncture in the rear tyre in the past 1.5 years.

and dude fazer is not a bike which performs well in the higher revz. fz and fazer are made for city riding which means instantaneous acceleration from o-60 and not for sustained speeds of 90+ on a regular basis. i have been using fz from the past 1.5 years and till now havent faced anything major apart from a relay which needed replacement. i am a regular user of the highway too on which i maintain speeds of 90-100kmph. but that too once or twice in a month or so. regarding brakes replacement it depends on the usage and varies person to person it is not the fault of the bike.

if you wanted continuos speeds of 90+ in city for daily purposes i am sorry to say that "yes you have chosen a wrong bike you should have gone for something else."

P.S: why dont you buy a puncture repair kit? it costs somewhere around 150rs for 4 rubber strips and the kit. it is quite handy and easy to use.

I would not say you've chosen the wrong bike , For that matter any other 150cc would behave very much the same way if you pushed it at 90+ all the time ...

The point here is , With aggressive riding comes more wear and tear , that is but natural ... You need to be able to accept the fact that your bike's maintenance will be higher and the parts replacement interval shorter ...

First of all no one here is ignoring your posts. Its just that guys here must not be having answers to your questions and thats the reason no one is replying. As simple as that. We all are here to help each other and get our issues resolved.

REVZ and PSD both are prone to punctures. Its bound to happen. I faced a lot of problems with punctures with my old REVZ but got it replaced dirt cheap from MRF for a new one. My friend who has a PSD is also facing puncture issues. So basically we cant help. Mumbai roads are bad and we cant avoid punctures. Navi-Mumbai is the worst place for punctures. If you cross the Vashi toll naka you can easily see lots of nails and screws lying on the roads. And on both sides of the roads you will find as many as 7-8 puncture repair shops. I am sure that these people are the ones who are responsible for most of the punctures there.

As far as regular service goes I have replaced my Air Filter, Spark Plugs, Disk Pad, Brake Liner as part of regular service at 12K Kms (They didn't go bad.....but I replaced it as per the manual). Also my starter motor went bad and it was replaced by Yamaha after a lot of fight. Maintenance is a part and parcel of any machine. If you own a machine you need to maintain it and its bound to create issues. The issues faced in your bike will not be same as mine and thats why we are here to help each other and gain knowledge.

Yesterday I went for the 15T Unicorn front sprocket. I drove around 100 Kms on the Eastern & Western Express highway and the effect was amazing. Stress on the engine was very less as compared to stock. So if you drive regularly on highways then try 15T setup. I am sure you will like it.

PS: Above mentioned things are just my opinion and came from my experience. I am sorry if you feel offended by any of my above comments.


Very well said guys. Its not a highway cruiser or a tourer. But will keep a smile on your face till 100 KMPH. Please dont ask what happens after that.

My engine oil Yamalube mineral oil is at minimum mark may be very slightly above the minimum level
Should i go for a top up or should i change the oil and put new 1ltr mineral oil
And will i get Yamalube mineral oil from the counter at SVC

How many kilometres have you done on the mineral oil ? If it's more than 1.5 to 2K kms it's time to change it ...

And yes you will get it over the counter at the SVC .

I dropped the plan of going for the 15T as i didn't want to lose the fun and my riding is not always in highways its 50% highways and 50% local runs

I am sorry i forgot to mention the main thing i have done only 1000kms
but its at minimum should just top it up or change it

Hey man, maybe you could go for the Joel mods,after which the engine won't be stressed at even 100+ ..

SMILE??? even after 1.5 years of usage i still grin like an idiot for a couple of minutes whenever i redline the engine... its fun until and unless you are below 100....

for highways... 15T mod strongly recommended....

very well said...

if its just 1000kms and the oil is at its minimum than you need to check if your bike is leaking oil from somewhere....

Its not leaking but my doubt is that during my second service a month back
they had changed the Oil Filter so i didn't see that guy pouring oil from 2 cans since in the manual it says if the Oil filter element is replaced then 1.20ltr of oil should be put
Is this the reason why mine is showing the low level reading
And
Will they sell Yamalube mineral oil from the SVC counter how much does it cost
