    I'd recommend Perfect Riders on Lalbagh Road.. The showroom guys know me very well.. PM me if you need further details.. Maybe I can join you during booking..

    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.

      COngrats for your buy.. Have a safe riding..

      Please check any dent or scratches before taking the bike. Most of us in the excitement at that time will miss checking this. Read all the documents(Insurance papers and any other loan papers) thoroughly and get your doubts clarified.

      all the best bro..I am feeling nostaligic if i read that someone buying a beast

      along with that also check for that when u will be getting your RC papers...

                Have pulled my fz to 120kmph and feel it can do better ....maybe only slightly better but definitely better....though dont kno bout the fazer....does the front faring add any excess weight?? maybe a loss of top speed due to its aerodynamic pull....
                sigpicGirls are like roads, more the curves, more the dangerous they are.

                To ride or not to ride?? is a....
                very very stupid question....

                  so 125 kph is the max fz can reach even on a straight stretch....

                      I do have an FZ and I've reached the said speed of 125 kph and believe me it can slightly exceed that too. I'd to stop coz of truck's movement on a highway. I think I've heard 128 kph once but I'll try that speed to believe it... Until then... 125 kph...
