    I am sure the definition of performance is much different for both of us

      Performance= power, refinement, handling, quality, longevity and hassle free ownership experience. Your definition of performance is more related to top speed and bhp figures I guess. Correct me if I am wrong...

        Completely agree with you.But my main point of argument here is price which is something important to make decisions for me.It's cheaper than a R15,Duke200,cbr150.Japanese are known for their refinement.I'm more of a KTM guy so i like hooliganism in my ride so the point is.If you take a Ducati it's very costly to manitain because you'll need new parts once in a while it's less reliable than a Japanese liter class motorcycles does it make it a bad bike.Bikes are not perfect in every way but in some aspects some scarifce has to be made for another strength. Please correct me if i am wrong

          Totally agree with you. If hooliganism is what you are looking for then I must say you are on right path and you have a prefect choice. I prefer refined, smooth and reliable machine over hooligans like duke.

              You have got it perfectly right.I want to add just one extra point ----fz25 has a fantastic ride quality too.Yamaha has tuned the shocks really well.Neither too soft nor too hard/stiff.Today rode on some broken road with a adult pillion and I+my friend riding pillion were amazed with the ride quality.

                I have Duke 390 currently, I have booked the FZ 25 already and will be getting it soon. The reason i booked the FZ was the refined engine, torque, smooth engine, pillion seat and small tweaks it has such as LED lights, LCD panel etc. I guess i had my fair time with the Duke's hooliganism which i enjoyed and now i definitely to need move on. FZ has that charm which Karizma had at a point in time with relaxed engine and smooth power delivery. I feel this one perfect with the 250cc that too coming from Yamaha.

                  So does the FZ25 come with ABS? Auto headlights on etc? Not comparing or anything but I am looking for a new bike.

                    No, You can check technical specification in Yamaha website or any Auto website.

                            I did a test ride of the bike for my colleague and came out impressed. I own a 2010 Fazer. Excellent torque for city commutes, good ergonomics / seating posture, nice exhaust note. The LED lights are adequately bright. The only things I didn't like was the Display Unit. Though its legible, the font, design could have been a bit more funkier (something like RTR200). It comes with a single horn and felt it to be weak compared to the Twin horn of my Fazer.
                            All in all, an excellent package for 1.4L. Personally, I would wait for R15 v3.

                              Bro how much kms have you clocked on your D390 and how is it to live with one

                                Are you serious [emoji23] [emoji23]
                                R15 can't catch-up with any of these bike on Street on a track it's a different story
                                Talking about capable hands any 150cc bikes can smokes 200cc or higher cc bikes on streets
