as far as the main topic is concerned i just saw a fazer in flesh in the showroom and looks awesome from the front...the appeal gets somewhat lost on the side view though (personal opinion).

It will be 80 K on the road in navi Mumbai...and official launch is 6th july..

IMHO...if this bike had a full fairing ...the same rear view and a same exhaust it wud have seriously kicked ass of all the bikes in the price range of 80k - 1 Lac
yeah..length of bike probably hampers the sideview me too feel that..
should have been lil more in length for a comfortable tourer..

hmm
googled it...got nothing..
but fresh clolors in r15 and..fz16 are definitely on the cards..
yellow will be awesome....if thats not fz-s yellow..

Had been to Perfect Riders today..
Got info that the OTR will be 85-86k.. When I asked the ex-showroom price, he seemed to not have an idea.. But was saying it'll be 7-8k more than FZ-S..

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.

going a bit out of the way but wanted to share with all of u guyz that---a cheaper R15 will be launched by early 2010 -------reason being yamaha will start making the complete r15 engine in india so they will pass on the benefit to the custmr's.

i dont understand whats up in yamaha's mind.... its kinda funny to imagine three avatars of a single bike with the same engine.. i personally feel that fz could have been the pulsar of yamaha with all the three fz having distinct cc capacities but hopefully with 50cc upgrades unlike 20/30cc on other bikes!. and if fz is getting so much attention, then why is r15 neglected!!!

but somehow i like all this... i hope they do something with the r15 also to give it a fresh appeal...
