    Headlight nonadjustable? It certainly can be adjusted to a good extend to change the angle of the light beam. The owners manual shows how its done and you can acutally do it yourself.
    Or are you talking about the dome housing the light bulb?

      With these antics, no-wonder my bike seldom gives me above 25 kmpl!

          I am not talking about the projection or beam of light buddy, it's physical outer glass of the headlight which is attached to the front fairing, that is nonadjustable post the accident.

              Yes, mine was faulty. But as I said before, I kinda got used it and felt normal.
              I'm not sure about wobbling, never happened to me. But the steering was a bit tight. I felt it after riding others bike. And today when I got back my bike and rode it, I felt the sudden change. Now the steering moves soo smoothly! Also I used to get some squeaking noise from the front, which is disappeared now. It used to come mostly while going through a speed breaker or bad roads. Now no such issues.

              Changed my headlights to Philips Xtreme Vision today! It's brilliant.

                  • I don't have any interest in CBR vs NINJA,as we all know Ninja is in its own league and quality is exceptional.Ninja is selling for decades but still many in this thread say CBR will beat Ninja upto 100km/hr,and Ninja does not have ABS but Cbr has.So,whats the big deal?It still will remain the best 250cc in many years to come and no other bike in this segment can match the legacy of the kwacker

                        Yes it can be adjusted with a screwdriver. Can't find the method in our's owner's manual. Please check this. I have personally done it and works good, no need to remove the fairing, headlight assembly nothing, just rotate that screw up/down and fix your satisfied position. Simple.

                        what's the cost? I have used Osram Nighbreaker in my FZ16 which was really good. How good is this when compared to Osram/stock bulb?

                        • First of all, I do not know why people are comparing these two bikes. If you have bought one, you know that you made the best choice for your needs. Whether it is better or worse than other does not make any difference.

                          • I really don't like to see another war, if not war, bragging about what each machine is capable of & each of them pointing fingers towards quality issues, top speed, expensive parts, technology, braking, FE, price, matured product!!!

                            What Overdrive did was just a mere ad to promote their sales; ordinary people just don't care about it, posers just brag on it, matured people go through it, educate themselves & keep moving, 'cause they know what it means!!!

                            For each of us, be it Mofa or MT01, we take in pride on what we ride & not with what is best. End of the day be it N250R, FZ, R15, ZMA, C250R, N650R or R1 all of us share the same passion for riding & we will ride together!!!

                            @Sudeep - Tks; I'll compare mine with another C250R & draw a conclusion.

                              When the honda guys were here I pestered them about my front handling and told them something is not right here. Asked them check my coneset or the forks but they insisted, after riding my bike, that the front was perfectly fine and it could be the dent in my wheel causing the handling problem. Aargh! Awaiting my wheel now..have no idea when it will come
