Ya...i have seen that....it might be for their assembly feasibility....


Also in my knowledge adding the fairing in the naked FZ will require following things to be done.

1. additional brackets in the fork area.

2. new wiring for the dual headlamp system

3. replacing the lower air flow panels. Also we need to see whether the leg guard which is available for normal FZ is ok with fairing as well.

the name should not be Fazer but FZ+ (..just like splendor+)

excepting front fairing, no major changes.. was waiting for this bike since long but had to admit that the launch has been disapointing
