    I have noticed some cost cutting measures in the bike which should not be there.Yamaha has used plenty of push type clips to attach panels.All of the same small size.Two from the rear tail piece fell off on very first day--and now I have replaced those 2 with oversized one and now its perfect.Also replaced another two over rear wheel with oversized clips.All other small size push clips have been replaced by better quality push clips from Maruti service centre.

    Smoothness of the engine while on the go is awesome----anything other than the exhaust note is hardly audible.But the case is not the same at idling.
    Recommended engine oil grade 10w40.Service interval 5000 km(1st at 1000 km).
    I am 5'11" and I found the bike perfect ergonomically for me.Have adjusted the clutch cable myself and the gear shifting is much better now.
    Can you post some pictures of the broken clips...??

      I have done 40k KMS on it and its fun to ride that bike. I can say one thing is that Duke is a toy bike and lot of fun and excitement is there, given how the power is delievered and the seating position. Since i am done riding on the duke and need to settle on a simpler, silent and relaxed bike hence i have booked the FZ 25.

                          Did anyone notice the throttle cables are shifted upwards and it runs under just over the handle bar, didnt take a clear pic of that though, but felt weird looking.

                          refer the below circled area.

                            They are the throttle cables and not brake lines.

                            The brake line originates from the master cylinder just below the cables you pointed out.
