Some clarification...

fz16 already has 7 step monoshock from the begining (autocar india)
It already had the same size rear tyre
The handle bar n everythig else is alll same....

only change in fazer is the fairing....n no u cant change from fz to fazer as the whole welding in the handle area has been modded...only of fazer...

One very thing which i absolutely did not like in fazer - was that when we use head light... in R15 for dipper one light works n for upper both work together
but for Fazer in dipper left light glows n for upper only right light glows
wat is this maaan... both lights should work!!!! it should looks like eyes!!!
I asked them to clarify this........

n the dual horn is awesome!!!

here in pune onroad price is about 81k!!!
Which showroom?

As requested above ^^
To Clarify..when your riding in lowbeam..considering from a riders view...the left bulb comes on and is at low. When your riding at High beam the right one also comes on(i.e Both turned on) and both point in high beam,i.e straight direction.
when you use the dipper... both beams are at high and if you release it you come back to a normal, left beam only, which is in lowbeam orientation.
Honestly speaking I didnt understand what the guy above meant to say about the Fazer lights, so I didnt comment.
But this is how the R15 (Stock) headlights work :-)

Bullcrap.

In India we cant manufacture a 150cc bike more that 17bhp. And many more irrelevant laws makes it very difficult to manufacture a complete bike.
Like what? Emission norms? How did you arrive at this magic 17 BHp figure?

Quote:
In Europe R15 is of 21bhp but in india it is just 17bhp.
There's no R15 in Europe. There is an R125 which makes lesser power than the indian R15 and caters to a different audience. It is also way more expensive. Feel free to prove me wrong.

All this clamoring for free lunches makes me sick.

>>to all

I went to monarch yamaha tilak road... took a test ride.. while riding i hadn't used the headlights... after riding i checked out the lights by putting the bike on stand...

let me explain...
there r three lights left, right n center(small one...)
at first step of the light button the center light glows...
at second step the left side light glows..---DIPPER
on left of handlebar there is upper/dipper switch...
when we engage it to UPPER.. the left light switched off n the right light glowed ... wat is this...both should actually work...
in this situation when we use passing switch.. both lights glow...

I asked in wakdewadi showroom today but their service guys said that they havent checked out the bike yet(they didn't install the battary) as they just got the bikes yesterday... but monarch yamaha started giving test ride as soon as tey got the bikes

Better Buy a P220 or a Apache 180 instead of this! Not interested!
