      1.
      the windshield on a naked bike won't look good.
      why don't you install the FAZER's front which already has a windshield, will look stock fazer too..

      2
      custom paint jobs really don't affect the touring performance of the bike, its an optional thing that you can do whenever you wish too.

      3
      installing a kicker on your bike is NOT POSSIBLE, it doesn't have a cam shaft that can support the kicker, even if you do install such a cam-shaft, it still won't serve the purpose.

            About the kick start.
            Here in pune, the yamaha factory service center installs a kick start for the FZ.
            Maybe you can try the service centers in your city.

                  Installing a kicker is DEFNITELY possible. Hell, my limited edition came with a kick-start.
                  The kick start costs something around 2k-3k range.

                      hey mate, i made my FZ16 into an awesome tourer, i took the following steps (may not be to everybody's liking but thats my Idea what a tourer should be)

                      -I put a full fairing of the Fazer to the bike, it cost me 6000 bucks but is well worth it, cuz it deflects cold blasts of air away from my legs, plus it also has some aerodynamic benefits i think, above 90 kph, ie the bike is more stable, plus now it has got twin headlights, which means more illumination.

                      -changed the handlebar to the Fazer handlebar, cuz it is higher, and shorter in width, so it boosts confidence, and relaxes your wrists.

                      -Put a Proton free flow air filter, for the bike to breath better.

                      -Shortly i am going to invest in the 175cc block set available for the Fz16,
                      which will result in better performance.

                      -invest in a sidebag, plus seat nets for those trips to hilly terrian.

                      Here is my Customised Fz16 (NOT A FAZER as standard)



                      I gun the throttle, the motorbike wails, the forks heave up, the revs climb, my view blurs, air gushes in my lid, muscles tighten, street lights streak. Just another day at work...

                        a kick start for the Fz16 will set you back by 5 grand.

                          @ wheeli junkie- Nice mod man, your bike looks good!
                          I too bought a new fz16, was thinking whether fazer fairing can be attached to fz16, you cleared my doubts! It looks good. What was the price of doing this mod, what changes were made to fit that fairing?
                          And installing kick is that costly? i mean 5k!
                          My dealer said its worth rs.2-2.5k, do we have to change anything in the engine to install that kick, hence more cost?
