NO chance. . . With a bigger bore the bike ideally does higher speeds at lower RPMs . . As per my knowledge the bike almost does a solid 10 kmph more than what the stock does at the same rpm . . Another difference u should ve noticed is that in 5th gear a stock fz can be ridden at speeds as low as 20 - 25 kmph where as a big bored Fz cannot go below 30kmph without it start starting to chug. . .!!!

well even i was expecting it to change. but it doesn't look like.
in 5th gear at 4k rpm its between 57-60kmph. same as before.

As i have mentioned before i guess ffe's will bring out more of your bike... probably the stock exhaust is hindering the capabilities of the big bore.. Joel can throw a better light on this one..

yeah guess you are right. waiting for Sydney's results.

so the big bore kit will only increase the top end at the respective rpm no effect on low end

and how will it bring out a better fuel efficiency can any of you check the mileage

That is very nice to know, some %^&*() is stealing petrol and am forced to live in reserve land

googled to check how it looks, and found that they just replace plastic tube with metal tube which cant be tampered with...is that it?

anyways, will visit service center guys on Monday for sure.

performance: will increase marginally
looks: subjective
mileage: improve a little bit
grip: depends on the tyre.

should be cheaper than the 140....

how are you planning to fit the 130 section of the stock rim

**ka600** · 08-20-2011, 09:48 PM

is a 150mm REAR tyre a direct fit on the fz frame?

**Sunjay Kumar** · 08-20-2011, 09:49 PM

i have noticed that my bike requires cracking it 2 times to start it
sometimes even when the engine is warm
i give the first crack and release it wont start but just the next crack it fires up
what could be the reason behind this

No idea. It never took me more than a crank to start, all these years, hot or cold
