bro but im sorry i think ur badly misinformed by someone i guess..my FC started to stabilize already..its gives me bout 17.7 km per litre bro.. for a 17 litre tank can take 300 km to run dry, but to play safe..if u take 16 litres as reference u can safely ride bout 280 km.

 

gani_1986, u finish run in liao ar?? sweet FC.

 

don worried too much on FC, power = Fuel will be more comsuption.

yes bro i did a hard run in with race werks, so i guess FC is mroe or less stable , bout 1k on the odo ready.. actually im not worried bout the FC bro , but jus have to make sure u can travel a safe distance confidently before refueling becos i realise the fuel gauge is not tat accurate , at bout 12 litres ready it starts to show reserve. however in the manual it was stated that at about 14 litres then the reserve meter pops up.

Anyone knows way is the fc for fz6?

[daredevil81]

Any bro/sis can tell me whether the side fairing will help to channel the hot air away?? BTW I've got the bike! It is really very responsive and my CO almost fly off when I first throttle off at 1st gear! lol.. Now still running in..

[daredevil81]

oh another question.. If my CO shoe touches the exhaust, will the rubber sole melt and stick on the Fazer 8 exhaust?

Tks bro. So that makes the common belief that fz8's fc is comparable or equal to fz6 a common misperception!!!??

not yet, but in the works..

 

wats e benefit of installing PC. i went to southern motors. the dude told me that installing PC resulted in a very great change in fuel consumption. Said his R1 from 13 can now hit 19 - 20.... said needed to MAP the PC to economy mode.

Hi bro/sis, I would like to check whether your rear pillion got complain vibration at the rear pillion stand is strong?

 

My CO said it can make her feet numb leh..

The power looks disappointing to me. Methinks my next Fazer will be the 1k version.
