    • Anybody thought of putting KTM 200 Duke's LED indicators on our FZs? Would look fab IMO! Wanted to know the price of each indicator.Asked in the KTM Ownership thread,but nobody replied.

        • What is this?

          I suddenly noticed this today.This wasn't present even 3 days back.Tried cleaning with a brush and soap,still it didn't move. The paint is scaling off probably,don't know why. My fazer is just 2 months only.It is happening on this side of the bike only,the other side is intact! What could be the reason? When I felt it with my fingers,it feels smooth though.

            Can you ppl let me know,if any,the list of dos and dont since this is my first bike.

            and can I open the seat ? Wasn't present at the time of delivery. So couldn't ask the sales person. I have seen ppl open it in their fzs. How to do it in a fazer? I can't seem to find a key hole for it.

              welcome.. Engine breakin procedure mentioned in the manual should be strictly followed.
              Dont speed much on curves.. Tyre breakin till 200 kms.. Also the brakes will not be strong enuf till 500-1000 kms.
              Read the manual fully. You will find how to open the seat there.. Its easy but will not tell you that!! Find yourself :-)

                    Welcome to the club! I own same model, same colour. Mine is making phut phut sound, just 2 months old. SVC person said let engine run a bit,it will be okay.
                    My fuel knob screw is also rusted. Will change it though soon.

                      did you mean it has some yellow thing over it? just spray some WD40, it will do.

                        strange , try using WD40 or diesel.

                            Just press the button "select",when it shows Trip, press and hold it for some time,it will show 0.0..as u start riding,the distance will be measured.

                            Just a few pointers for you:
                            Keep the revs between 4 and 4.5k RPM
                            As you have white,be extra careful about the colour,wipe it every time u see a small speck of dust.
                            Always switch off ur headlight and pilot lamps when starting the bike to ensure maximum life of the lights.
                            Be careful of the mirrors while moving through traffic,they get scratched easily.
                            Thats all. Happy Riding.

                                However, my accelerator felt a bit hard to when compared to the p180s one.... it also felt a bit jerky in inital gears and mid range rpm,....

                                my fz is around 2 years 5 months old done almost 21k km... havent changed any thing till now still running on my first set of everything except oila and air filters, rear tyre....

                                I am about to give it for servicing and want to know what all should i get changed and overhauled???
