I replaced the stock air filter with a high flow one. It definitely improved throttle response, and is easy to revert for warranty claims.

It's asking for trouble messing with the bike. It's perfect as is. What do you have to gain for voiding the warranty for such little gain?

I got a slip on exhaust that's street legal. It sounds better and may give a tiny bit of power. So far no issues with warranty.

ECU tuning is the way to go. I found a guy that does it, and leaves no trace. Now bike feels much more alive.

Tried a bunch of mods, but none really did much. Save your money and let the bike be as Yamaha intended.

Changed the sprockets for better acceleration. Its a simple mod that adds some fun to city riding without affecting the warranty.

Installed a Power Commander. It can be easily removed before service visits. It is totally worth it.

Why bother? If you wanted more performance, you should have bought a bigger bike. For what it is, the FZS V3 is great.

I focus on weight reduction. I removed unnecessary bits and swapped some parts for lighter alternatives. No engine mods needed to achieve better performance.

Braided steel upgraded the brake lines. It's a safety mod that shouldn't void anything, and it made a massive improvement in brake feel.
On long highway rides, how does the FZS V3 Dark Knight Edition’s fuel efficiency hold up?

I was blown away by its efficiency, I did a 500km trip. Even at 80-90 kmph speeds, it averaged around 45 kmpl. A highway star is The Dark Knight!

It’s nothing spectacular, but decent. But on long rides, my buddy's Pulsar NS160 seems to sip less fuel.

The best area is from 70 to 75 kmph. The mileage plummets like a rock if you push it harder. And for a 150cc bike, it’s pretty good.

I installed a small windscreen and it made quite a difference to fuel efficiency on highways. I guess that was less wind resistance.

It's all about how you ride. On highways, I have gotten anywhere from 40 to 55 kmpl. It’s all about smooth throttle control.

Long rides? It's too small a tank for serious touring. On highway trips, I'm stopping for fuel way too often.

I was skeptical but it actually does better on the highways than in the city. It must be the consistent speed and less gear changing.

With luggage loaded up, mileage suffers. But it's still respectable. Fully loaded I manage about 42 kmpl.

It’s not very fuel efficient, but the small tank is the real limiting factor for long rides. I wish Yamaha had a larger tank option.

Though it's a better bike than my old one, I expected better from Yamaha. Perhaps I’m just a heavy handed guy when it comes to the throttle.
