    Nice to see the article. I was one of them who upgrade straight from RX-100 to FZ-S. I absolutely still miss the rocketing pickup when leaving the traffic signal, and with that modified silencer, i haven't heard any other Indian bike making such a true racing sound.

    My two wheel upgrade goes like this, TVSChamp--> RX-100-->FZ-S

    • Some sound

      Hi Guys,

      I recently did a 340Km trip (Mumbai-Valsad and back) on my Fazer. After this I've started to get some sound , cant pinpoint exactly from where but definitely from lower part of the bike. This happens only two times, 1. Morning when I start my bike for office and 2. When I leave for home from office. In short when the engine is just started after a long time some tak tak sound is heard.
      This goes away after a minute or so.

      What can it be.

      And one more thing, my fuel indicator now always blinks even if there is adequate petrol. This too happened after my trip.

                • I guess its problems for my bike. I have noticed a small leak in the small tap near the main-reserve fuel cock. Is this serious. When I clean the leak, after 1 week it comes again.
                  I have decided to lubricate the chain myself. What would be the procedures. Or should I go to the service center for it? What would be the cost?
                  Reduce 1 km/hr speed, add 1second 2 ur life.

                      If u cant see anything, rush to a trusted mech or the SVC asap!! You wouldn't want to aggrevate the situation bro.

                        Check for obvious signs of damage. The rattling might be a broken or loose part around the silencer or catalytic converter. Could be a bent main stand. As you describe the sound, it appears to be some part that wasn't or shouldn't be moving but is moving now after the fall.

                        • Guys today I removed the saree guard there was a slight change in performance.. I guess the saree guard weighs around 1-1.5kg.. You all also should remove it..

                            Lolz! It all psychological I guess! 1kg is simply too small a load to make any difference!
                            Your biking tells a lot about the person you are!

                              I disagree. It does make a noticeable difference.*

                                Hai Guys,

                                1 ~ 1.5 kg of weight reduction will not improve your efficiency , because 1 litre petrol weighs around 750 gms if u fill ur tank then it doesnt mean your performance will be affected . it is negligible.
