What was the service for the "labour charge" which they want to provide?

Is pc3 really necessary to correct A/F ratio? my previous owner changed the end-can to an aftermarket slip-on one and i get 22km/l average on SG rides. With fuel addictive like FP60 or Mckreen it averages around 23km/L. There's no PC3 on my bike. I must be the unusual minority. Then again, include the cost of the FP60 and it prob works out to cost more per KM travelled.

 

i do hear a little bit of backfiring (just a little bit) when the rpm slips pass the 4k mark when decelerating. Sounds pretty good to me backfiring can mean that your A/F mixture is too lean. Heat generation is increased by quite a bit also

 

Joos7er, why don't you change your exhaust or do whatever mods u want first, and monitor whether the FC drops? If it drops to unacceptable levels over a few tankfuls, and then u add PC3 to correct the A/F ratio also not too late mah. If ur bike consumption no change, u can save the couple hundred bucks and buy other more useful things for ur ride.

 

Bro i using the akrapovic le.. most of the stuff i manage to get le...

 

still considering isit worth to get PC3.. getting abt 15-17KM/L without PC3.

 

Backfire wise nt tat bad...

[anric79]

I ride my fazer6 new bike about 1 week le. I found out tat the clutch lever very tight when squeeze in , press until my hand very pain and now a bit numb le at my left thumb. is it normal for every class2 bike. last time i ride super4 dont have this problem de, hand wont pain de.

 

Is class2 bike clutch lever all very tight de?

[Pplater]

ok... Dues, PC 3 has it plus points. But with a consumption of 23km/l and more power than i need on a humble 600cc... i really cant't convince myself to get a unit. I'll KIV it though... someday might need.

maybe can adjust ure biting point further?

[anric79]

further more worst brother yatz86. further mean more bouncy i need to use more strength to clutch in . thus make hand more painful if hold long time .

er really meh....den got following things which may/may not help

 

1)go gym train left hand

2)adjust clutch housing / biting point

3)lubricate clutch cable

4)change automatic transmission

 

choose wisely:cheeky:

It's not necessary. It's just a plus point, like you said.

 

Personally, I don't even think an aftermarket exhaust is a necessity for me, much less the PC3. Most of these CL2 bikes have power which you'll never be able to fully utilize.

 

My money's more on tyres and suspension. Always. If I can max out the handling and make the bike easier and more compliant on the ride, I can do the corners faster.

Try wearing gloves then. It might help.

[ah_vic811605199361]

i tink the clutch cable is faulty or if not is too new not "season" yet... but anyway go to ur favourite mechanic to check it out. if really malfunction or spoil change it. if its still under warranty bring back to shop and get it done....

Hi,

does anyone have any experiences or recommendations for fz1 2007 after market battery ? MY battery died recently :cry:and I asked a couple of bike shops , they quoted me $175-$190 for the YuasaYTZ14S. I read on some of the overseas fazer forums that several owners are using much cheaper alternative batteries and getting decent life with it.

dey.. my loud pipes irritated me so much that i went back to the mech to have the silencers fitted back. I don't know how my previous owner managed 4 years without going deaf.

The benefits of using FP60 is widely documented within biking circles and without. Within this forum, it has been proven independently by enough knowledgeable bikers in just the first thread I linked below. Reading just the first 2 pages will suffice.

This product is a matter of personal choice. Like PC3, its a good to have, but not a necessity.
