    Re: Fiero/FieroF2/FieroFx

    Update: I found a shop which can get me the 2nd gear 18T and 15T, Drive and Driven.
    Have picked up the fuel gauge too.
    I would have got the engine work started but my R15 had a crash (not me) on a tour last weekend in which most of the LHS is damaged.

    Looks good dude!More importantly it proved to be as accurate as the stock speedo, on our comparison test.Now at least you can be happy with the way your bike performs.Next on the agenda should either be a tach,or more importantly a bigger bend-pipe to improve the engine refinement and top-end performance!

They have changed the oil-circuit of the engine,so Fiero/RTR's will have to fit the oil-cooler to the provision provided in the crank-case,just the way we have fitted it on my bike and not like the new bike.

    Oh ok. That mod sounds very interesting. I think you may be trying out the new rtr oil cooler then

    But sad to hear about Mr. Srinivas' unfortunate incident.

    Hmm. Yes. I see the fins now. Oils lines are different. They do seem to have made a lot of changes.

    Yes, the new rtr200 is rumored to have a 4 valve head. From the spy shots on the net, it appears to have liquid cooling though. Thus, the external oil line hole seems to be missing. Wonder what carb will be put by tvs for this setup...
    I hope there will be a work around for that for our fieros Plug and play would be nice.

    You are absolutely right about the Pistons...

Yes, previously i had the 200cc bore and that's when i had installed the oil-cooler.I ran it in the 200cc mode for 14k kms and changed over to the RTR 180 bore-kit.The 200cc bore is still in the same condition as it was when it was new.It has usha piston kit with rings and most probably the sleeve is from a ZMA.Mech is of the opinion that it's good enough for about 70k kms,if oil is changed at every 2k interval without fail and no less a grade than 20w40.But it was running on super high compression and i didn't want to take that chance for that long.So i got a new RTR180 bore kit and this set-up is fine enough for me.

    Thanks bro. For clarifying that for me
    Oh. That's good to know about your 200cc bore. It is still in good shape even tho it was under high compression - so that's a good thing.

    Yeah. I know what you mean about not taking a chance. Raising comp safely is a bit tricky. With rtr bore there is peace of mind.
    Some say domed pistons are a safe way to go about it tho. It seems it's somewhat better than shaving/milling the head...

    Hi Gixxer,
    i will try to source connector today also attached pic of wiring for Ignition and charging.
    We'll go and meet satish.Let's see if he can help you with it,or at least see whether he can get it done with a auto electrician.Try and get that connector though.

Weather's been awful and i understand if you weren't able to get much done in these days because of it. Why don't you try car and automobile garages?They all run on Fi and they might give you an idea as to which connector can be suitable.Other than that,you can head to bajaj,or yamaha showrooms and find out if their connector fits.In jc road too,you better remove that connector first and then try and get a similar one from any 4 wheeler spares dealer. The mechanic satish i mentioned about,he does electrical works,but i don't think he has any idea of FI bikes.So if you can get a connector first,he might then be able to remove the remote lock etc and make the wiring stock.Provided you have a wiring diagram of the FI bike. @<a href="http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/member.php?u=32286" target="_blank">psr</a> might be able to help you out here.

    Hi gixxer,
    As you said first i will remove the coupler and then check if its available in JC road four/two wheeler shop.remote lock has been removed by has been removed by prev owner but left some unwanted wires.i will share wiring tomorrow.
    Thanks,
    Raman
