The first problem he has reported is that, the company is not providing (doesn't have it in their stock) required amount of spare parts in the showrooms/service centers.
Another big issue is the amount of dust and water that gets kicked up by the front wheel, the engine is bound to get a good amount of sand blasting unless Yamaha provides us with some quality accessories!

The website claims that Yamaha develops products based on customer feedback! Guess what??? There is not link on thier website that allows a customer to provide one!!! How frustrating can that be?

Overall:
Bike --- 5 star
Service(Showroom) - 4 star
Yamaha approachability -- no star!

"Amazing!", that’s the only thing I’d been saying when I saw the bike. Then came the good part, my friend handed over the keys, (the key looks great too!, well sculpted!) The riding posture is amazing! It gives you a big bike feel. thump the starter and a great exhaust note welcomes you.

Off we go, since it was evening and rush everywhere, maneuvering the FZ was "freaking amazing!" Also I noticed, its a great torquey bike to ride in the city, in heavy traffic conditions. Awesome low end grunt! even with a pillion, who is almost 6’2", the handling was not twitchy at all.

Overall ;
handling: excellent, pickup: excellent, bring vegetables during peak hours + laundry: No problem! Stoppie: Piece of cake. [Didn’t try, saw overdrive mag, seems easy! ;)]
For the average Joe, I’d say, its a great bike! No doubt what so ever. An amazing, well thought out package for the Indian roads. Weekend long rides must be bliss on this bike.. hoping to ride one soon into the sunset.

The front number plate doesn’t gel with the overall physique of FZ-16 as I feel it negates (kills) the attitude and mean looks that is exhibited by FZ-16 to a very large extent!!
The starter and the starting of FZ-16 is the least noisy affair. You will be surprised how easily this bike comes to life at one go and that too without a using a choke!! The bike has no kick mechanism to start and one has to rely only on self-start.

FZ-16 takes gear changing to next level and that too with a single toe lever. One can’t use heel to shift and the disadvantage on this is that the office executives may have their shoes worn out or may look jaded, especially the left one!! The gears have absolutely no false neutrals, no judders, vibration, it’s a spot on and a solid feel that one encounters.

I can simply say that this bike has the best brakes in its class and no one can come near it forget matching it!!
