          And the worst part is the silencer doesn't remain black after wash. Thinking of using petrol/diesel for cleaning.

          The mud flings much higher than what this will protect.

          This type of things won't happen in city though. The mud here was different, it was soft and sticky. My friend's Pulsar 220's front wheel got kind of jammed due to mud accumulation between mudguard and tyre.

          If in case anyone's interested in the video:

            You can find it at Pearl Yamaha kukatpally, Arjun Yamaha Kompally.

            Thank you Riaz!

            I got the inspection done today, but will install a leg guard ASAP.

                Hi Riders,

                As I mentioned earlier, I had done a seat cover with 1 inch padding and a tank cover. Pics below:

                    Was this taken on Saturday ? On the Bangalore Mangalore route ?

                      The seats look quite plush and I think even I need to get this done right away....

                      I'm just not getting the right hang of doing the 80km commute everyday. Have developed some severe pain in my back and seems to be radiating down to the tail bone.

                      Folks from Chennai, suggest me a good place to get this done for my seats?

                        U can try rainbow ( famous helmet shop) located in between thousand lights stop and Gemini flyover. They are quite a pro.
                        Please ensure the additional padding is not too soft ( the one in the pics looks too soft) to have a better long ride comfort.

                          I picked my LS2 from them, I didn't know they did seat covers too. Will have a look, thanks.

                            It will basically protect under part of the engine and not the cylinder area. Useful in its own way.
                            I would still prefer to have mud-flap though.

                            Wouldn't it be too soft for long rides? I found the stock seats good enough at-least for my daily commute.
                            For longer rides, saddle is better to be bit on harder side.

                            PS: Please have the tank bag removed.

                              That tank bag is looking very good and practical. Can you give details of cost and the brand?

                                Had been on a small ride to Shettihalli Church last weekend and had a chance to ride [MENTION=91768]Terrorbladezz[/MENTION] FZ25 extensively.

                                The FZ has oodles of low end torque which I loved. Engine is good enough to provide stress free cruising at 100-110kmph, but I couldn't go to higher speeds as the bike is still being run in and I was varying RPMs. Very good ride quality except for the seats which were too hard for my liking. I finally understood what owners meant when they posted about the rear view mirrors. They present a blurry image above 70kmph. Also noticed the headlight assembly shaking on bad roads.
                                [MENTION=91768]Terrorbladezz[/MENTION] commented that my gixxer felt like an electric bike[emoji14], but we can't expect the same refinement in a big single.

                                Wish I had waited 3 more months. Just love this machine. Man I envy [MENTION=91768]Terrorbladezz[/MENTION]!
