    not only do the customer has to change the right front fork but they have to change the front alloys as well.add to that cost of the disc plate and the caliper master cylinder and brake line.plus labour. we are looking at a figure of around 6k or 7k at the least.

      impressive......
      I bet Stunner looks even better in that angle, but the crowd going for P135LS aren't really after looks... if that's the case Stunner is already there, now they have one more option.

      • another thing i observed,unlike other 150cc or even 125cc bikes available in the market,the SZ doesnt come with a toe shifter...great for commuters..

          Where do you see an oil indicator??? IT is a petrol indicator!

                I think they would get exchanged value wise,if the bike is booked with disc set-up,brand new,showroom condition...........bringing the cost down to only the disc setup and additional 400bucks maybe.However,I think Yamaha would provide the Optional set-up soon.

                      I agree. This is exactly the reason even the style cues of the SZ are based so much on the FZ. I've encountered many people who'd love to own the FZ for the stylish looks yet are put off by the FE. Good mid range power to zip-zap thru the traffic ,decent FE and contemporary looks have always been top priorities for the target masses of the 150cc categories.

                        • Getting Rid of disk is like getting rid of a Status.disk brakes in a bike not only gives better braking,but also a royal feel to the youngsters.
                          And if u say,this bike is targeted towards middle/old age,then i would say,a commuter like my father would any day choose a honda/HH(Unicorn,hunk) above the yamaha.
                          For people like us,
                          With a 'Disk' option and pricing it under 57000 (onroad), it can really eat into P135 market. Even into the pulsar 150......And also their Own "Gladiator"(if u can afford a 150cc,why go for a 125 ?).
                          It wont affect the HH or Honda's loyal customers though.

                          Now Bajaj's strategy would be-----P180 with 'flairing'.....& 150 with split seats. haha.

                          But thank god,it didnt used the name 'FZ' in this detuned bike like Bajaj.

                          YAMAHA USES SAME ENGINE FOR DIFFERENT NAMES....BAJAJ USES DIFFERENT ENGINES FOR SAME NAME. (PULSARS N DICOVERS)

                                I would suggest you get a Ducati HyperMotard, then.

                                Perfect blend of Fuel efficiency and performance.
