    Now that atleast it's confirmed that it's a test bike and also you may have had a chance to take a good look at it what is your opinion?

    Any significant noticable changes which may not have be clear enough to notice in the pics?
    as i said b4, they were too fast fr me. i cud only look at the front of the bike through my rear view, wen they zoomed past me(i ws driving at 80 then)after that all i could see was the tail, that too from a gud distance.......

    • definitely a test mule--no doubt--

      the rear hugger is plain ugly but so was said about p 135ls & it turned out good in real

      the side tail panels are reminiscent of mod jobs done on street

        same ws the case last time too but last time i ws in my verna n my brother was clicking........this time i ws alone.......
        Ok, Nice catch there.

        I hereby award you "SPY OF THE YEAR" award.

        I hope this bike remain the normal 150cc, with the specualted power during its initial launch (~25bhp), but if its a 250cc...then

        The tire is not as fat as the one on fazer, for obvious reason of distance between the bikes both appear to be same. Illusion.

                    May be becuase what you see on tail is not the panel but a cloth taped to the real panel... may be, thats why the awkward bulge and all... may be

                          Good work Vaibhav!

                          My Speculation:
                          What i'm thinking now is, Yamaha is upgrading both FZ and R15...
                          If what you said about speed is correct, then I'm sure, FZ also is having a newer engine.

                              The tyre is fatter on the R15 as seen from the pic. So considering the distance, it might be a 140 or a 130 atleast.
