        she is one of the meanest and great looking bike bro, good choice. Ride safe and also click more pics of her close up in details and give us some specification from the manual as well. Will appreciate that

            Update on City riding :
            Rode it to the Factory shop in the noon to get the number , 9492 ( WE have a Asteroid 9492 too )
            The heat in city area coming through the seat was a little unpleasant. To keep her cool , i need to ride at 80 + else the temp starts rising above 87 degrees which makes it uncomfortable.

            While leaving I did give it a short burst in 2nd gear and the bike did a wheel spin at around 60kmph . It was a concrete road. I realsied that I need to make sure surface is grippy if I need to accelerate hard.

            Rest of the ride was pretty normal. Not one person relaised it was a sbk and asked me the irritating set of questions 8)

                great man!
                one of the sensible bikes around, and a practical one compared to the radically extreme insane supersports ones. Did you think about getting a CB1000R as an option?

                ride safe and congrats!

                  Thanks
                  CB1000r was out of question. I loved FZ more because of its meaty looks. Moreover while riding , fz feels much better and gives a more planted feel. Also brand wise , I wud prefer yamaha over Honda any day.
                  P.S. CB1000 costs 1.5L more than FZ

                      FZ16 is a really nice bike. But I never noticed it had 4 cylinders. How much did you pay for the modifications?
