Yamaha should have given the bike more power. That would have been awesome and made the bike easily the best in the segment.

This bike luks coooooooool, but i think if u think in over all thats luk+style+mileage+performance+reliablity 2009 Pulsar 180cc rules the game. I sold my P180cc to buy FZ-S but when I went to the showroom and test riden the bike I dnt feel like BOSS OF THE ROAD, 100kmph thats it, P180 would give me 115 max, I am waiting for the Pulsar 180cc 2009 which is coming with more power more speed, but before buying would like to test it first today only.

it looks like you only think of drag races but not a street smart riding.you should stick with the pulsar 180 its best for you.

ds is d best bike i hav ever seen in my life….
fzs 16 really rocks….looks r indistinguishable……
engine is d most efficient nd technically incomparable as it has YAMAHA tagname………

Sri: Hey guys, Wat would happen if the button start fails? Is there any way to start the bike???

rare chance of failure of self…as they r technically advanced as compared to d bikes having kick…..
Bychance if it fails dn u just hav to put it in 2nd gear and dn make it run a few steps on foot…..

hey im plannin on buyin a new FZ-S but im a lil confused with the new pulsar 220 which juz got released nw…
i need luks nd a sum power rather than no power…i dont need too much power as 220 but sum say fz gives very low mileage nd poor pick up nd stuff….
wich 1 should i take???

i am not much pleased with this bike because it doesn’t have the power of R15. yamaha should launch bikes that has high performance engine
