    As [MENTION=47870]devils_friend[/MENTION] said, lube at 500-600kms interval and during rains, make do it at 300-350kms interval and clean every 1000-1200kms.
    Ride safe and have fun.

        I had Apache RTR earlier and had to change as i completed 90k kms.

        Fz is so smooth to drive and great handling, didn't expect this much from FZ.
        Congratulations Praveen43, even I am a convert from TVS Apache to FZ and I too felt the same but I do miss the brutal acceleration of the RTR. Anyways ride safe and do post pics of your new possession.

        Problems that i'm facing in traffic:-
        1. On downshifting sometimes gears tend to stick followed by a gear change sound after engaging clutch.this thing trouble me in start n go traffic where gear shift would be frequent
        2. Initial pickup demand frequent gear change.for my bike
        1st gear0-11
        2nd gear 12-20
        3rd gear 21-32

          Hi all,

          I will be taking delivery of black FzV2 tomorrow, can you please let me know what all things I need to check for and how to identify if the bike was manufactured in 2016 or if old bike is being delivered... also can I ask them for bike with MRF tyres? or Ceat tyres are also good? ( In the showroom there were 2 bikes and both had ceat tyres, not sure if bike with MRF tyres is available.

          thank you.

                777Rs ? A mediocre whisky or 5 years of peace of mind. Choice is yours

                  I chose the warranty option 2 years ago when I bought my R15. The amount of money is quiet small and the warranty does covers important parts like fuel injection system, sensors, liquid cooling system, radiator etc.

                  I would suggest you to go for it. 777 Rs is not that big an amount when you are already spending a fortune on a new bike and it does cover some really important kit in your bike. At the end.. your choice.
                  I would like to thank my legs for supporting me, my arms for being always by my side and my fingers; I could always count on them.

                    is it a good idea to get the original seat changed and get some extra cushion? what are the other options for a better headlights?

                      But they have one condition for that you should service your bike regularly only at Yamaha till the end of extended warranty period... If you miss even one service your warranty is void.

                        That is true brother. The warranty will go void if you miss a service.
                        but It is it so difficult to get the bike serviced regularly?? I don't think so.
                        I have never missed a single service ever, and you can do the same by just planning ahead for 2 weeks.
                        And besides our bikes are so complex that there is no other option. you cannot go to a local mechanic, authorized service center is the only option.
                        Which brings back warranty.

                        At the end. Your choice.

                            thank you for your suggestions, i will take the extended warranty ( i can take it within 60 days from date of purchase ).
                            i have covered around 400kms in around 15 days and am planning to give for first servicing after completing around 700kms ( target 25 days ).

                            as of now i have the below issues:
                            1. up-shifting of gears is smooth, but downshift is very hard. shall i report it to service center now? or shall i wait till 1st servicing?
                            2. say i stop the bike at red light and am in 3rd gear, then it is almost impossible to bring it to neutral without dragging the bike...so i have to drag it around 5-10 meters and during that dragging, i have to change the gears. is it normal? or shall i report?

                            thank you for your help..

                                I think the clutch adjustment is towards the tighter side. Try loosen your clutch settings.
