Hi Guys ,

joining in to the quality of the fz alloy discussion , I have only positive things to say ... I ride through some of the crater ridden roads of bangalore and have been constantly doing so as it's my route back from college , my bike has taken the beating and still runs absolutely like a charm ... *touchwood* ... just finished second service few days back and at 2.5k km on the ODO , so if it can take it for this long , then one sudden pothole should not be so destructive , i felt ... maybe other factors are also involved for the alloy to bend , I've heard that it should break rather than bend , in a thread where one member had a rough crash ... just my opinion and experience guys ...

P.S : bangalore guys , where do you guys buy engine oil ? In J.C Road , one of the mechs said on mobil1 is actually pure synth , the others are all just semi-synth , couldn't believe it , so just wanted to confirm with you guys .

hmmm ... you ok bro ? got a pic of the handle ? otherwise it would be difficult to assess exactly what the damage is ... but whatever the case I believe the SVC can fix it or replace it anyway ...

the new FZ(with Carbon body(not released yet) seems to have a better stronger handle bar...if you can maybe wait try replacing with that.

ya man i am okay... havn't got the pic, but the right side has bent couple of degrees towards the rider, you can easily feel the difference when you ride the bike.
