FZ-S is having a yellow black combination already. But you can change the way the graphics are.

Aree! Yaar! Sidarth, Showroom wale tujhe pagal bana rahe hai. I am 5'9", less than 60kgs and rocking on my FZ (Monster). Any question?

I guess this is the second time someone is being led astray regarding the purchase of FZ considering the height and weight. Yeh kya ho raha hai showroom wale ko? Your choice is yours buddy. Go ahead with it considering the bike in terms of cc, bhp, weight, pickup and other criterias meeting your requirement. Dont get befooled by the showroom guy. Just go ahead if you like it. Self satisfaction matters a lot buddy.


Engine Problem: Yes yes yes! not just me, heard about it from two other guys also. but its not often, the problem of engine missing reduces with kms travelled. Mine occurs seldom and surely I do get pissed!. But so far, its ok, no major issues.

You can go back to the showroom and tell him he is too ugly for his job.

@Sidharth: Nothing is too big or too small for anyone, buddy. Its all about adjusting to the bike. Any bike will suit anybody. Just treat the bike with all the respect you can.

These showroom walas always try to push their products big time..
The showroom guy you mentioned is either new at his job, or is a fool, or is trying to get you into buying an R15 (my wild guess ).. I can't in any way see that he's being honest when he's telling you what he has..
Like other members have pointed out, your decision regarding the bike should be final.. Be sure you're comfortable enough with the bike's handling, posture & control, before you actually book it..
Cheers!

Sorry bro! Not applicable for the R15 & Apache though..
Tall guys do find these bikes uncomfortable..

My test-ride experience of the YZF-R15 V2.0: http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/news/198...tml#post725556

The pleasure is when your rear wheel slides, and you bring it back;
and when the front wheel lifts, you take your time bringing it back.

wew! wew! wew! Even Sexier buddy

I guess i have seen this one already in xbhp. someone was stuning on this one rite? i phorgot hees name.....
I like the blue,red and white paint combination. Of course maintenance would be high especially the white alloy. Would love to get it done, but i have to consider my state where rainfall is at its peak and very unpredictable .

I dont even have enough time to keep my Monster clean everyday or even few minutes a day. And so if I should get it done, I will have to keep a special attendent to keep it in its sexy shape and colour perhaps a neighbour babe to wash it every day...hehehehe....lmao....
