The owner says, he gets somewhere around 30 to 35 KmpL mileage. I am getting it for 60K ... is it a good deal ?

there's another one I might check which is 6K Kms 8 months old for 72K, should I check this one out ?

Also, can I get a leg-guard fitted in Fazer ... coz this guy didn't have it... I think its necessary for safety on cruse.
i would avoid the accident one and the other one try and bring him down below 70k.... make sure before you make the purchase, get the bike checked properly from a good mechanic or svc centre for any accidents or hidden problems.. servicing history etc.

Yes you can buy leg guards separately.. the one available from the svc costs around 600 bucks.

all the best

cheers
