          The spring right there may not be doing its work properly.. It brings the brake lever back when you press the brakes. Get it checked.. otherwise SVC may have a deeper look into the problem.


          @ cscsarkar331 - You can ask for 50Ks on that but no-one seems to be interested. Why don't you post a classified in the classifieds section. Maybe you'll find someone.

                      Deville might like to have his papers sucked by the air intake.... Personally, I do not like the idea of a thief quietly showing to the cops the original papers of "his friend's" (=my stolen) bike!!!!

                      Don't you have these very useful things on your pants called "pockets"????

                        • I am constantly getting kric kric sound from my MonoShock, I tried cleaning with Chain Cleaner spray but still no use. Anyone experienced the same? Just worried if Monoshock needs replacement.

                            Maybe its your braking style! There is a tutorial somewhere on how to brake. You might be not distributing your braking between your front and rear like you are supposed to and apply full pressure on your rear brake.

                            Any changes to stock recommended sizes imbalances the motorcycle as a whole and you lose out on ride experience. FZ is one of the very few bikes with a 50:50 weight distribution in the front and rear.

                            Don't put FS in the FZ. Its not suited for its engine type. Stick with SS.

                              The spring which you have shown in the picture is breaklight switch spring. What has it got to do with break locking? I think you have posted the wrong picture!

                                Can anyone figure out the exact amount of petrol on reserve? Manual says 1.2 litres, and someone the other day said 1.5 litres and now you are saying 1.4 litres
