Personally, I would advice you go for FZ .
Not much of diff between FZ and FZ-S except color,visor and radium on the rim for which Yamaha is charging 2500-3000 extra.Doesnt worth the money according to me!!!

Fazer - Price barrier?

Depends upon you which bike you want to take!

no change specific change in performance,only Colours Differ! nothing much and a Visor in front of it!

We all know that performance-wise there is no difference between the 2 bikes..
Choosing between the 2 is purely dependent on your personal like/dislike for them.. I (or others) may like the FZ-S over the FZ-16, but its you who'll be riding it..

& since you really want an opinion, I would say go for the the FZ-S, will be a little more exclusive, considering you're fine with paying an extra 2k, just for the stickering job all around, & that tiny vizor..

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.

In my opinion the FZ s looks very stylish and that Visor really brings out the "Lord of the street" image in the bike. So if you dont mind the 2k extra go for the FZS.

The only reason i m buying FZ-S and nt FZ-16 is just because of the yellow color, the same is not available in FZ-16....
