    @all--AFAIK Fazer's handle bar can be fitted on the FZ.....
    Yes...it has a more relaxed feel....coz it has been slightly raised.....
    on the FZ u have to bend a little over the handle bar.....
    But you wil need the RVM clips fitted on to the Fazer's handle bar
    coz Fazer has the RVM's on its fairing....
    DO keep it in mind while changing....cheers
    i don't get the fuss about FZ handle bar, i feel it is designed to quickly maneuver in traffic, if you get more relaxed bar nimble handling will be effected for sure. If you are getting pain from grips try loosing clutch i got my bike after service today and i felt due to clutch tightness my finger and wrist is paining.

      Or else get after market add-on grips-the soft cushion type ones.

        • @Sarvajith and avithe1

          you guys are talking abt fixing the FAZER/R15 mirrors on FZ handle bar right?
          i was talking abt fixing them on the tiny visor of the FZS,yes on the holder on which the no. plate is fixed to!
          this is the pic of the no. plate holder....isnt it very similar to that of the rubber padding avithe1 posted?

            you will be charged for the oil even in your free service,but what do you mean by after service and labor lubricant?

              yaar waise haryana ke cops toh Rs. 50 mein maan jaate hain...
              thank you for your reply
              are you sure that new bike does not need puc for atleast 1 year
              mine bike is 8 months old


              any one knows about the insurance premium to be paid for the second year

                ok cool, Let me check in SVC if fixing the handle bar is possible without any issues.

                    What do you mean by 3M engine oil plus....if its an additive then they
                    are gonna charge you for that....
