I have a question..
Can we fix a bolt-on handle bar on fz? and if yes, how much does it cost (approx.)?
Hey anyone tried this? If so how is the bike handling with clip ons? I am thinking on trying em as well.

i checked it during the servicing but yamaha service people says it is ok
Adjust your front tyre pressue to 25 - 28 psi. If it is a little high you get that click sound on bumps from the front end.

No crash guards also made available, even considering indian road sense. chain rusting is so common, my chain got rusted after 3 days of service. cluth lever broke in half when bike fell on speed of 10, foot peg broke on the same speed although it cost Rs 35/-, this proves build quality is cheap. they only concentrated on a great handling and styled bike. But not things which matter in long term. I do not use bike for long distances i make short trips so i am ok with it, my frnd uses it for long travel, he is ok with it if not very happy.
I absolutely agree with you, if a huge company like Yamaha creates a product which is being soled in India then it has to be designed for India.
