    I had only my 2 services yet. They poured Yamaha Oil at SVC, don't know details.

    I added a switch for Headlamp and changed lamp to LED (costed ₹1500).

May be its just me. m gonna use Motul oil in my 3rd service with shell. hope to get better result. PLUS, m getting average mileage of 48 to 53 km/litre !!

    average running speed - 50-60
    highest touched - 90km/hr in 0-6 seconds.

    and i ride solo all the time and i keep the tyre pressure 28 front - 35 rear

    i am badly looking for some one who can guide to change the headlamps, i want to shift to led, without ruining stock assembly ! plug n play sort of led bulb !

    also i m looking forward to add a switch for lights, these euro 4 rule is ruining my battery. I dont wanna keep headlamps running all the time. !!

    I would like to know if you actually reached 90 in 6 seconds?
    Gotta report it for a world record for the fastest accelerating fz16 ever.

    PS; just a joke, i feel it must be a typo.

    What does a headlamp relay do? Will it brighten the current 35 35 bulb? Or will it enable me to use a 55 60 bulb? Please enlighten me...
