    My Alpha (FZ 25) is only 1 week old and have only ridden 700km .
    The gear shifting experience was similarly hard for me for about 200 to 300 km and especially in the morning. It was really painstaking in high city traffics but now it has become much more smoother.

    Your FZ 25 gearshift will also be smoother the more you ride.
    And releasing the clutch slowly will do no harm to the engine , if you don’t revv the throttle hard. Keep the bike below 4500 Rpm and keep varying the speed don’t keep the speed consistent, it will ease out the Iron fillings in the engine and help the engine last longer !




    I wouldn’t recommend taking the Bike for a ride of 300km , before first service and if at all you are going to do the trip stop and give rest to the engine after 1hr drive or else the engine may be harmed especially the heat can cause harm !
    Thanks. I am hoping it becomes smoother as it just shows no signs of getting better. Its a 300 km up and down. So 150 km in one day and will come back in another day. But yeah, I will take 1 hr breaks .

        Yesterday I was parking my bike on road side. I picked the side stand and noticed traffic from behind. So I tried to push the bike sitting on it. Accidentally I stepped on a piece of sunmika and lost grip on ground as the sunmika slipped instantly. It was like my left leg was totally in air and I was falling down with the bike. However with God's grace the bike landed safely as the side stand was on. I have completed only 950 kms and the bike has not yet completed running in. Plus I don't have leg guard on the bike. Was sure for a major damage to the bike as well as me. This has happened first time in 15 years of biking. I was shocked at the moment. Guys always look down while parking your bike. Safe riding !

              Yes it is. Please visit an advanced svc. They have things called fi stations. They will do it.

                    They have the fi station they check Yamaha fzs on that station and when i ask them to check my Fz25 they said that the company didn't provided them the code of Fz25.....they are manipulating us they tried to avoid till the free services ends and after that they charge rs.100 for fi check....

                      The user manual says that once in every 6k KMS we have to check and clean the fi system....

                        Anyone from Ahmednagar, Maharastra? I'm planning to purchase this beauty in a week or so and need your suggestions.
                        I am from Pune, and bought this beast 3 month ago. As per me following are the pro and cons ( Strictly based on my observation)

                        Pros:
                        1. Awesome powerful engine. Low end performance is terrific.
                        2. Super torque, so no need to change gear all the time in city traffic
                        3. Amazing milage ( Getting 38.8 kmpl in pune. I am travelling to most traffic loaded area in Pune Hinjewadi to Hadpsar still getting such milage)
                        4. Looks.. it looks beefy spectacular, and not flashy at all. ( Looks are subjective )
                        5. Perfect ride and handling. Rear tyre is huge and stick to road like leech.
                        6. Suspension setup is so nice that you hardly get bump. Ride is smooth and comfortable.

                        Cons:
                        1. No 6th gear. Badly miss 6th gear on highway
                        2. Instrument cluster is too basic. Sometime I feel even fz16 has better console
                        3. Rear view mirror vibrates lots after 75kmph.. its almost unusable
                        4. Sometime my hand start paining in traffic while riding in traffic. Changed seating postion but still it hurts.
                        5. Headlight .. Yes it is weak. Brightness getting from stock headlight is not good.

                        But I am happy with my purchase, so there are hardly any big fault in this beast.. hope this helps !!

                          Dear fellow riders, is it possible to turn off the instrument cluster of FZ25? I saw few videos on YouTube where they were offered test rides and the cluster was not working

                          This might happen with any showroom and they might sell the same bike afterwards.... I'm just concerned what if I get such a bike, as we know how many people drive in TR.

                          Any way to identify it?

                          Riding is not just a skill, it's an attitude

                            Yes it is possible to detach odo.

                            Normally showroom use registered bike as TD motorcycle.

                            As per my knowledge the only way to identify it is by checking during PDI. Especially parts which wear i.e, tyre, foot pegs, brake disk, brake pads etc. At last, we can check month of manufacturing on a OEM form (used for registration).

                              I don't have any shaded parking area in and around my office. The bike gets exposed to rain every other evening. Today morning I noticed water droplets around the fuel filling hole when I opened the cap of the fuel tank. The cap does has a rubber sealing where it fits with the hole but even that had droplets. Is this ok?. I am worried if water has seeped into the fuel tank.

                                I don't think that should be a problem. Yamaha must have done testing for this too. Having said that, try to keep your babe shaded.
