[Group] Yamaha FZ16

[Epigun]

Thank you. I never had a habit to pump to the top.

 

So assuming that he pump 11 liters (12 liters tank with 1 liter reserve), fuel consumption is about 36km/l. Not too bad.

 

I have been riding the fz16 for a month now.. Clocking 2000+km in 1 month due to my long distance from home to work.. On a few occasion, when e fuel indicator starts to blink, i realise i only hit 340-350 km.. But when i check my tank, there is still a large litre of fuel in it.. Intitally i tot it was e reserve but when i top up, i realise i only top up 9 litres.. 2 litres reserve n 1 more litre to go before reserve.. Yesterday it happen again with my fuel indicator blinking wif 1 bar at ard 340km.. I decided to go wifout reserve n see if it can still go.. Now my trip is at 400km wifout reserve.. My cruising spped at 85-90.. i came to realise that when i hit 400km, the fuel indicator was blinkin wifout any bar.. So counting by this, i actually clock 40km/l..

I wanna check if the same happen to any bros out there?? So far i never ride till reserve n only top up when fuel indicator start blinking..

Hmm, maybe the blinking is just an indicator that showing the fuel is low in your fuel tank, but not mean that it's touching the reserves. So actually 40km/l is good enough already ! I'm not sure about it, but that should be the case. Correct mi if i'm wrong.

I tink so.. If not wrong i saw 2 different blinking.. 1 wif 1 bar and e other

wifout any bar.. Any bros realise that too??

 

Maybe we can share our FC.. mine ard 400km wifout resrve riding at 85-90..

the low fuel indicator is to tell you that ur petrol is low and reaching reserve tank soon. If u wanna calculate the actual FC, top ur tank to full and set ur petrol tank switch to on . Once ur bike engine die out, thats the actual FC without reserve . However if u ride halfway engine die out, dun panic just turn ur petrol tank switch to reserve and the engine will start to run no need to press start .

I asked HL and according to them, the official number at 50km/l! I think that's an probably in a wind tunnel testing. The reviews I saw over in India forums put it at around 35-40km/l.

 

So how's the ride at 85-90km/hr? Is it as stable as the S4?

 

Can't wait for the rack to be ready. Real hassle carrying helmet around.

hmm... i agree to dis.

[RideHard]

I supposed its the size of the filter.

 

All, anyone has any idea if it is just bolt on? What about adjustment of fuel/air mixture? Anyone got any clue where the fuel/air mixture screw is? (not the idle screw)

 

I saw one clip, dey just bolt on e tapered rubber end of KNN filter come wif 40deg angle to e carb inlet. E rest of e rubber assembly from e air box underneath e seat will be modified isolated. air/fuel mixture screw i've yet to notice. cud it be like any other carb eg: RXZ, etc

[RideHard]

This bike sounds damn sweet. Could barely hear the engine running.

 

Dis I agree too!
