    even my FZS default position was upwards...i adjusted it my self.

    there is a nut on the left side near the head lamp,just adjust it with SIZE 10 spanner frm your tool kit.

    • Number Plate

      Guys I have a question about the number plate on the FZ16's front...
      Is it valid to have the number painted on to the mudguard or do we have to put up with the silly number plate that the company is now providing with the bikes up front.

      In my opinion the number plate spoils the entire of the bike's cool look...so what say?? Painted on number plates ok??

      To ride or not to ride?? is a....

        Get it stickered onto the mudguard, SBK style!

          Sadly it was a TR vehicle, but already crashed&damaged on the right side!
          Yeah they do turn inwards.

            Pretty useful!
            I wish the R15 had those kind, it would help a lot in my congested office parking lot!
            Also I like the FZ/Fazer tyre hugger.
            And the last thing is the accessory optional mesh seat cover.
            Guess Yamaha is pampering FZ/Fazer owners-even the accessories are much more flashy than the R15!

            Only thing I couldn't understand is why both lights do not glow at once in high beam in the Fazer.

              Do I need to open the glass or it is accessible from outside also?

                IMO you should have no probs with stickers up front on the mudguard.They look cool too

                this is an extract of the article from **********.in.hope it really works....
                "There is a simple solution to this that may seem silly, all you have to do to turn both the lights on is that you just have to place the high/low beam switch somewhere in the middle position. This lights up both the lamps and after lots of riding in the dark with this setting, the battery seems to hold up well."
                It all begins with a thumb-start -- Oh, wait, I forgot the kill-switch

                  You can go for the hack..its pretty simple..and I got it done within 3-4 days of purchase. It definitely adds more appeal to the bike.

                    Don't try that Middle switch funda..it will do nothing but only burn your switch.
                    So avoid it.

                            Where is this nut on the headlight you guys are talking about. Even my headllamp focus is facing a lil upwards need to adjust. If possible @Ranjith can you post a pic please.

                                Might not log into to xbhp all weekend. Will try figuring this out by looking thanks for the info though just today i was like thinking the focus is a bit on the skyward side.
