      I use cheaper Formula 1 Scratchout (Polish) and 3M Wax.

      • unicorn's sprocket

        hi guys,
        i just fitted unicorn's 15t sprocket to my fz using it since a week.the engine has become smooth but initial pickup reduced but the top end increased.Iam very satisfied about it.

        my Question is whether it increases the mileage? does it affect the engine?

        guys please help

              why dont you go for iridium? just go to any two wheeler spare shop and ask for the NGK iridium for honda shine. FZ one is not in the market but shine's is of the same spec.

              • transporting bike in multi axle volvo

                Hi
                I have decided to bring my Kerala registered FZ to Chennai.....
                I am thinking of transporting it by Volvo multi-axle (Kallada travels) as they have a stop near my place of residence and my friends have had horrible experiences with transporting their bikes by train..
                Around 2000-3000rs union charges in just taking the bike inside the train and getting it out.......

                So what are the steps in transporting the bike...? please advice me on this..
                Reduce 1 km/hr speed, add 1second 2 ur life.

                  for the procedure of transporting the bike via private careers you will have to contact them and ask them. most probably they might be needing the xerox copies of the RC and insurance.

                  and if you were asking for the number change procedure the steps are as follows:

                  1. get an NOC from kerala RTO. (u will be needing an NOC from police as well).
                  2. go to Chennai RTO deposit the Kerala NOC along with other documents like RC, Insurance and a paid road tax reciept of TN.
                  3. apply for a new number.
                  4. you can also ask for a refund of the road tax in kerala but that is a way cumbersome process.

                    Thanks for your advice.. However I am not planning to take a TN registration as I will be staying for maximum 1 year in Chennai..... I plan to ride with NOC only.....(and get lucky with cops)..

                    I meant steps to transport the bike in the bus.....
                    Like we have to drain the fuel tank empty, remove the mirrors etc... will it be safe in the under storage of volvo?

                      I put the g-power also and feel that there is no noticeable difference between the iridium and platinum tipped plugs..also it was 400 rs cheaper and is custom made for the fz unlike the iridium which is for shine..so minute differences in design do exist..just my 2 cents

                                check the NGK site for authorized dealers, if not found in shops. I've been using them for last 23k km, cold start is nonexistent since then
