Comes with premium tyres, mechanical changes, a new headlight setup and more
Yamaha has launched the facelifted version of the Fazer FZ15 in Brazil for a price tag of Rs 16,990 Brazilian Real (approximately Rs 2.69 lakh).
What’s New On The Motorcycle?
From the first look, we can notice a new projector headlight for the FZ15, similar to the one seen on the FZ 25. Otherwise, the overall styling of the Fazer FZ15 is similar to the FZ-FI V3 sold in India.
The biggest change in the bike is the inclusion of premium Pirelli Diablo Rosso II tyres at both ends as standard. Other changes include a 10mm increase in length, 5mm increase in ground clearance and 1.1-litre decrease in the fuel tank capacity, which is now an 11.9-litre one.
While its engine is still a 149cc one, the interesting bit is that it can run on both petrol and ethanol.
The bike makes 12.2PS in the petrol mode and 12.4PS in the ethanol mode, figures that are the same as before but it’s made at 7500RPM instead of 7250RPM. The torque figures have taken a hit, with the bike making 12.7Nm now, instead of 13.3Nm.
The instrument cluster is the same LCD one, but the tell-tale lights are now placed differently. The India-spec FZ-FI V3, on the other hand, makes 12.4PS and 13.3Nm.

- Yamaha FZ is a good bikeI had a very great experience in driving my bike,It has a good mileage and low maintenance cost. I used it to travel to my university and back to my flat. It is cost effective and also supported me many times. Feels like I am driving a sports bike in that low budget. I suggest that this is the best bike we can have.Read More
- Proud owner of this bikeProud owner of this bike. I don't know why people r having low mileage. I easily get mileage of above 60 on highways at normal speed of 55 kmph. Sometimes even more than 64. Till now I have driven approx 39000 kms in just 2 yrs. Main drawback is it requires chain set change after every 15000 kms. Also indicators r not flexible like in bajaj pulsar (my old bike). Seat comfort is too good. Fuel capacity is also good, approx 11 ltrs (when fuel indicator starts blinking ). Bike features good handling while driving fast while overtaking. ABS works fine. Finally it's a fun to drive bike with no issues.Read More2 1
