thrash mode was about 37-38kmpl ... normal riding mode , around 80kmph riding was 43kmpl ... splendour mode was 52kmpl ...

removal is very simple ... remove the cover (shown in 1st pic) and then one more screw holding the sprocket in place (2nd pic) and then just tap it from the back and it will come out

...

attached pics , sorry for the quality , tats all my w810i can manage ....

is there any disadvantage in going in for NGK lX spark plug. also is there a need for installing high performance ignition wires after this. what all performance and mileage gain can i expect.

also i was thinking about going for k&n filter. can anyone explain the changes to be done to the carb after fitting k&n. what all advantages and disadvantages for the same.

lastly, what will the dent in my pocket be?

Vok vok. Been waiting for last 5k km for current chain set to wear out, already bought the chain sprocket set that time on the recommendation of the bloody advisor. Crossed 20k with original set

Gotta try the 15T in front.

Ok. So the new parts are torsion spring, return spring and push lever right?

I hear ya on the service tips. Will sit there like a hawk.

yes the R15 rear sprocket will make the FZ a pocket rocket that loses steam at high speed ...

sprocketting only changes the powerband , we really can't increase it ... the engine still will produce the same output ,we're just messing with the distribution ...

, if your going up two teeth ( +1/+1), will have to add a link to the chain and thats cumbersome ... Plus it would land you back in square one . for a more stable setup , i think +1 in front and -2 in the rear is good , but still one link might have to be taken out of the chain ... my next idea is to find a 38teeth rear sprocket , the P200 does have it I guess , but it's not a direct fit ...

And yes I did check out the FB pics ... wil send you an invite on FB ???
