Looks cool guys.... Great and neat fz25 sticker works... Especially tat lime colored rims....

Looks very good and tastefully done. Dhana stickers have done a great job.

I'm planning to do some stickering for my white FZ25 and I'm confused between Dhana stickers and Knight Auto customizers to do the stickering. Any fellow Chennai bhpians have any feedback on them? Or any suggestions for a better place perhaps?

Cheers!

U got bike on 7/7/17, I think first service for FZ25 is after 2 months or 1000KM. So, you are due for first service before 7/9/17.

P.S: Correct me , if I am wrong

Hi,
Actually, i was told that first service either 1000kms or 1 month, whichever is first. So, will be dropping this weekend for service.
But you have mentioned that 2m or 1000kms.. so will cross check with the service people again...

Cheers....

Yeah, those people told me that, but that's not true. I asked the dealer, he told me they would have given you old schedule book. In new book it's 2 months.
And it's on Yamaha Website also, you can check.

In fact, I gave my bike within 1st month, because they gave me wrong details and old service book. And in return they just said "Sorry Sir, but your bike 1st service has done now, next time follow that new one schedule".

First step for obtaining a driving licence is that we have to take /pass Learners test ( usually a written test or online test taken from RTO office) once you pass then only the physical driving test begins. To start practising on bike the person with Learners must be accompanied by a person who has already got a licence, in the pillion seat. Better consult an Advocate

Thanks! Appreciated for info.

The other point is insurance claim.

Not an accident, robbery of the bike. Therefore insurance must compensate the claim without a fuss on driving licence. Made up my mind to fight back in court if the claim is rejected by insurance company.

I wanted input from similar experience of the riders in the forum.

Hope suggestions will come in.

As per my knowledge, 10th digit is year of manufacturing. "H" is for 2017. 11-17th digit is vehicle identifier. Newer bike should have it around "00186XX" number

Better to ask your trusted dealer or check in road worthiness certificate before you sign for registration. There will be a mention for month of manufacturing in that.

Re: Yamaha FZ 25 Owners Reviews and Experiences

My gear lever is extremely hard and rough. Shifting from 1st to 2nd is a pain. After 60kms i have pain in my leg. Please help. Also my front disk is making a strange cricket insect like sound. The service guys told it's due to dust, and it will be gone over time, but it hasn't until now.

Re: Yamaha FZ 25 Owners Reviews and Experiences

Do we have anyone in this group who's from Noida & owns a Yamaha FZ25?
For the sake of comparison I need a Alternate FZ25, so that I can drive & compare it with mine.

Please do let me know.

I will be very grateful to you.

Ok, I was genuinely shocked by those 0-100 video of fz25 and duke 250. Then I came across this page:

Yamaha FZ250 faster than KTM Duke 250 India road test bikes

Read the content of the link and was amused by the observations on Sea level, altitude etc!!!

Heating ? Electrical issues ? What are you talking ? Duke can be ridden all day in b2b without any heating, the 2017 ones. Also, Duke is more of a performance bike, tends to heat more, it has a sharply tuned engine rather than the detuned engine on fz25. Every component used is far more costlier than fz25 and 50k extra is justified. Let's not start flaming here. Stay on fz25.

Duke 390 will get hot in B2B traffic and though it was not unbearable (at least on my 390) but its makes uncomfortable. FZ25 is lot cooler and there is hardly any heat observed for a air cooled engine.

KTM has been focusing on engine a lot to make it more refined and they are doing good job, but there are few more areas that need to be checked in. Pre-2017 390's have wiring issues not sure about latest ones.

If you have been following the thread, then you must have come across with post of FZ25 with Windshield from Bajaj AS200 and some other brands.
