    Tell them to buy FZ itself
    and tell them to have a look at Honda CB1000R and then speak of from where FZ got the face

      It looks amazing.. I also wanted to get a stripe on the tank to the tail, but never thought of side panels.. Great Job
      ATGATT! There are many wonderful riders/drivers out there who would intrude in your riding space without any notice. Be prepared. Stay Safe.

          I had sent a mail asking for clarification. But no reply even after a week or so. Guess will have to send reminder..

          BTW. I got first approximate mileage figures:

          Method: Reserve to Reserve.
          Riding conditions: 80% city ride. 10% highway, 10% very very bad virtually no road - 1st and second gear only. I ride mostly from 40-60 (in city if possible. rest is traffic riding ). Short bursts to 70-80 for few seconds. Have a habit of quickly shifting to higher gears. I kill engine on signals to even for 10seconds.
          Petrol: Shell super 8.5 ltrs
          Kms: 390 kms
          Mileage: ~46kmpl

          Not bad at all. I am 760km on ODO and 1st service is still due . Hopefully after svc trip mileage will improve even further.

          PS: I got LS2 Phobia for 2800 bucks from Laxmi auto, JM road, Pune.
          use any oil you like,no one is barring you,just do it outside svc,btw i have done it in svc too,but then the service guys were kinda friend of mine.
          and the question remains why do i race?
          every finishing line is the begining of a new race.

          #i have learnt to manipulate my own adrenaline and the perception of biking is different.
          #overkill is underrated.
          #how random roads may appear there is always a destination.sigpic
          #i don't subscribe to co-incidence,either it is the rider or the other moron on the road

          (:)people keeps on saying add spark to life, bajaj got hold of that idea and added an extra spark to bike.

          • FZ got its's face from this. How can ppl compare FZ n NS
            They are totally different bikes when it comes to ffeeel. Just because they both are naked doesn't make NS a copy of it. Stupid ppl first they say it's a copy of 135 LS now fz they are just jealous of NS guys
            Being best is not about beating everyone. It's about how much you learn from others and make yourself even better

                I have already changed engine oil to Motul 3000 @ 370km

                But the corporate world needs to be taught some values and principles.
                Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--
                I took the one less traveled by,
                And that has made all the difference...

                        Thanks Rahul, I was just experimenting with the stickers, to my better half the comment was "you should have bought black if that's what you wanted"

                        @Rahuldevnath - Its a really looking good. What texture/material is it??? Rexine-ish/Rubbery?
                        Man...your THE Einstein on this thread!
                        Originally posted by Rahulbarik View Post

                        Einstein! I'm overwhelmed! And yes as Rahul correctly pointed out, it's Carbon Fiber stickering. However it's a bit different from the usual stickers and has a fabric like texture, which serves the purpose of tank grips, it's nice to touch as well.

                        @ Rahuldevnath, bro. stickering looks cool.

                        Me also plan to do that black strip though middle of the tank up to tail.
                        Thanks!

                        No, Rohan those are Carbon Fiber stickers, got a roll from JC ROAD.

                        @Rahuldevnath has pasted the carbon fibre decals on the lines of the tank curves. But if he levels the decal to match the Black plastic part, then some portion below the curve would remain Yellow, which might be a Eyesore from the front.


                        @RD, great job.. The decals look striking over Yellow. Guess it won't look as good on Red.
                        I have actually adjusted the the the side cut to the black panel. It was tough because the cut had to be done freehand, but it does look good now. Infact I have added the carbon fiber look to remaining part of the design, will post a pic.

                        ...otherwise great job
                        Thanks Bro. I'm glad, that everybody feel that they look good.

                        Will do, a comparison pic.

                        • Has anyone tried to install the sump guard from the KTM duke on to the NS. I was noticing that the area under the radiator is almost similar to the duke, hence was wondering if at all it is possible to fix it to the NS (even if by doing some jugaad).

                          What is the cost of the sump guard BTW?

                              You are talking about the belly pan, right? Normally it's not possible to fit one on 200NS, but yeah, jugaads are always there!
