        the way the engine is designed ,it shd have min 44 tooth in the rear,
        can you try for 13 tooth front from other bikes,i am trying to find out if gladiators sprocket size,do you know it .

          even i wanted to know tht...but it seems like my gear is getting better!!...i think FZ's gear takes time to get smooth after every service!
          jst wait till 1.5-2k kms....by then you can figure out if anything is wrong...

              • Which is the best Bangalore service centre?

                The mileage I'm getting from my FZ is still just 30. I'd asked the service station (Bangalore Wheels) to do something to improve it at the last service. But apparently, nothing's been done. When I asked the mechanic there, he claimed that the FZ does just 30 to 35 km/l in the city! When I told him that most people are reporting 40+ km/l, he continued with his evasive replies.

                I've decided that I won't go back to them for anything else again. So XBHPians from Bangalore, could you tell me which is the best service centre in Bangalore?

                    Sai and Iyengar tyre clinic will have the tools for mushroom puncture by next month. oh! btw he also has a liquid which seals off the puncture from inside in case you get one. It will cost u 400 bucks per tyre.

                      dude...i think its Rs 2500/- but am not sure...u need to check with MRF only...they are the tyre providers and it states in the manual to visit the MRF centers for tyre queries...even the warrenty doesnt cover tyres....

                                AFAIK it costs around 1500-1600...Atleast that SVC guys told me...

                                Bro....i think either the FZ carbs are not tunable or the SVC guys are just not tuning it....Thats what happened to me....When i complained about low mileage they made it so lean that my engine heat was enough to keep my legs warm wearing shorts even in this harsh winter.....
                                Thats when i got it tuned from a local mechanic and he told me that it was not even cleaned from the start....

                                The harsh reality is that gear shifts of your bike is directly proportional to the skills of your SVC mechanic being good or bad
                                I learned it the hard way....
