    hey, I've ordered Motul 7100 10w40 from amazon.in for my fz 25 the package says an import date of April, 2017 while the manufacturing date is 13th March,2017.

    Now my question is i would be using the same oil for my fz 25 in next service which would probably be by next 1500 kilometres or January end 2018 i.e. next month.

    will the oil be expire by that time? how much shelf life does motul 7100 has?

    Please advise... also as of now only 1 bottle has arrived the other one is yet to come... maybe that would be of different date... i can use them both together right? [emoji14]
    Shelf life of engine oil is 5 years. For fully synthetic oils, it’s more than that.

    You need to store it in cool and dry place. With caps tight.
    If you see any moisture or any oil lumps after few years, then the oil has gone bad.

          Not needed as of now. Try to use flush after 20K kms. From there on, use it every 20 or 25k intervals.

          If I am really interested in flushing earlier, I do with engine oil. I put new mineral oil. Run it for 100-150 kms, drain it and put in new oil. This way, I can be more safe and ensure none of internal oil seals get damaged. I use cheap same spec mineral oil.
          The replacement would be higher quality oil.

            And what is the criteria of highway or cty bike as per you?
            It's low end torque. It's a great bike for high traffic maneuvering. In the highway, if you can effortlessly do a 100 kph for long stretches, that's a great thing.

                    - Try to get your hands on the 17T front sprocket of Apache 310 Bike isnt launched yet. Not sure if the chain specs are same or not. If they are same, it should be a direct Fit.

                    The second option, which is extremely difficult is that, by changing the final drive ratio. Gear box needs to be dismantled. Tedious, hectic, complex and might not worth the pain.

                    That Chasis can sustain speeds upto 150 MAX. with Pain. Anything more than that, you are asking for pure and expensive trouble.
                    Gonna put RaceDyanmics Powertronics as soon I reach 12-15k on my odo.

                        It’s a high torque motor already in a frame lighter than 150 cc bikeso. You can do wheelies easily. Other than that, you won’t achieve anything with mods to ECU.
                        You need sprocket changes with ECU change for higher performance and top end. Then you cross the limit of that frame. Also you will need better brake rotors, calipers and pads to stop it. Why risk?

                                I don't have a pic but I tried this. Didn't like the look. Neither did it help me much. Why don't you try some other windshield?
