      50 for fz is heavenly. Haha.. I get around 32-34kmpl on mine and this has stayed the same since the beginning.

      Take a day of from school/college and take it to a good service center and talk to them regarding this.

      Also, i had asked you to check the color of spark plug tip. Do that to see you the bike is running rich or not.

      Ride safe and have fun.

        I got from local mechanic checked it
        Too much carbon was deposited and there was very less space in sparkplug ..did that also and even on full throttle visible smoke was produced.......

        he adjusted air fuel mix

        lost pickup but lets hope it increases mileage......

          Good thing that you got the bike checked. Too much carbon deposit on the spark plug tip means the afr was rich. Now check the mileage after a few days and see what difference it makes.

          And a tip, never rev a bike hard in neutral. It can damage the engine. I also learned this recently.

          Ride safe and have fun.

                Honda suggests 10w30, but I used 20w40, because it reduced vibrations. Castrol, shell ax5 were the ones I used. No issues whatsoever.

                          Try to find the source of the leakage. If you can't find it,
                          Take it to a mech or svc.

                          Where do you get the services done? How often do you service the bike?

                              Since it stops if you turn the petcock off, the tank must be fine. Problem might be with the fuel hose or the petcock itself.
