            • Reg air pressure

              How frequent we need to check the air pressure in both tires of FZ16. I got it filled on 18 and yesterday again it was low on rear tire. It shud be 33 but it was 30. A little bit upset as newbie to it and curious to know bcz is this normal that air pressure gets decrease fast on radial tires.
              sigpicDon't Luk back... else u will get a hit...

              A LITTLE CARE MAKES ACCIDENT RARE.

                Your rear tyre of the FZ might be punctured. Do check it thoroughly.

                  Yeah I also had a similar problem at first, but I losened up the helmet strap a bit and then clipped it in the hook. Try it, it'll help...

                    Yamaha was previously planning for Gladiator 165,
                    its engine is perfect for Fazer.
                    I don't think Yamaha will not make a direct entry in quarter liter segment,
                    they first enter there own created segment i.e. 165 cc,
                    no wonder if they tune it to produce more then 19 ps, as it was 16.5 ps engine,
                    but at prising front Bajaj rules all Companies

                    Bunny has mentioned in another thread that its not true! Lets put an end to this discussion (sadly)
                    But he has mentioned some other surprise in the next issue of Bike India. I'm waiting for that!

                          .........well i just thought a plate like thing can do enough to stop the sandblasting of the engine without spoiling the looks........and yes as far as the rains are concerned......they will come back....... and rt now we are having some very heavy rainfall here in pune......and the roads remain the same..potholed.....rain or no rain.......and then there are the speedbreakers.....which might just brush the lower part of the engine.......so anyone knows where to get this "plate like thing"......any pics will be appreciated..

                            Dude, I also live in Pune.
                            The road condition is really very bad here plus the muddy water coming on the engine and the lower part is a big nuisance to any FZ owner here. My shoes get all brown by d time I reach office
                            But I don't like to have anything extra on d bike, so resorted to washing it everynight when its dirty
