    I dont think the quality is poor, just that maybe their design is flawed...Notice a indent in the inside of the levers.that is the place where majority of levers break off.

    although i am not very happy with the material of levers, handlebar ends etc.....

    my handlebar ends just keep on breaking it is the second time i will have to get them changed....

    are there any metal handlebar ends available in the market I dont want the bright blue ones available with yamaha...
    Accessories are available with yamaha with 3 different colours- Gold,titanium and blue.

    I've got titanium clutch and brake levers and bar-ends and they give me a superbike feel..

        • Crossed 500kms

          I have crossed 500kms on my bike ... the manual states that now I can rev up to 6K in each gear, which would probably allow me to take the bike to 80-90kmph; is this recommended or should I stick with my current riding style of 4.5K rpm per gear with max speed of 60kmph in the 5th gear?

              What is the LED position light? Is it the headlight? Where could I get a more powerful headlight?

                the position light is the pilot lamp beneath the main headlight....
                LED position light is basically a powerful LED in that position....

                        if it is the only motorcycle to be featured in the song than the producer of the movie must have taken a good sum of money and the bike from yamaha to show it in the song.....

                        • Selling my FZ

                          hi guys,

                          I'm selling my FZ-16 (black color). It was bought in Jan 2009 and I've clocked 24500 km on it. Is the price 58000/- suitable enough for it? The bike is still rocking big time

                            let the people know why you are selling.... otherwise they might think its an accident case...

                                58k?? dude.. a year old fz goes for 55k.. yours is 1year 9months and has run 24k kms !! a optimistic expectation would be somewhere in the high 40s. but if you find a buyer lucky you !
