Hey Guys! I got my new Fazer last week. I actually went to the Yamaha Factory Shop at Malad (Mumbai). I had made up my mind that I would buy a blue Fazer. The lady behind a desk told me to come back 3 days later as Yamaha was launching new series with new colors and kick. So I did wait .

Went over there after conforming that the new batch had arrived. The new colors of FZ-S and Fazer were amazing! (except for the Yellow FZ-S). And the moment my eyes fell on a white Fazer I fell in love with her .









My friend wanted to a buy a bike too. So he selected the White-Red FZ-S.



Normally the waiting period for the bike is about a month. But, they had only these 2 bikes in stock. And, we booked it!

I knew I had to wait for 10 days before the delivery. So to control the excitement I bought a new helmet (LS2- in the pics) and Riding Gloves. Cost me 3k only!

The day for the delivery arrived! We went to the showroom early . The people there must think that we're crazy! Anyways we completed the paperwork and were handed out the keys to our respective bikes. We did pooja and stuff. Started the bike with a kick. VROOOOOMMM we went (me and my Fazer).

This is my 1st geared bike. Engine is insanely smooth. Tyre Grip on the road is awesome. I had to stop at once due to stupid people crossing the road while the signal was on. I was at a speed of 40+. And when i braked hard she came to a stop after just 1.5 meters. Headlights are powerful but I don't like the concept of single headlight working. Makes me feel like she's a pirate. So will make mods after the First servicing.Horn is LOUD!! Some people get scared (not that I enjoy it) but it's better than having a nasal squeaky one. Just done 75 kilometers in 1 week. But I think the average that my bike is giving me right now is about 25, probably due to run-in period protocols.

Thanks for reading. Here are the pics. You can see bits and parts of my friend's FZ-S in the corners (don't want to post pics of his bike without his permission. For any details, PM me. You can also make picture requests



































Peace!
The color looks superb however the kick-starter and the leg guard is very ugly man!!! nice helmet by the way... good choice...

I agree with you regarding the kick starter. I didn't want the other type of leg guard i.e. the ones we see on splendor. So I got these. It's black, but has plastic on it now.
