Yamaha FZ-X Specifications
The FZ-X is based on Yamaha’s popular FZ-S FI/FZ-FI platform. So it will carry over the same engine as the streetfighter. Take a look at the detailed specifications leaked earlier.
Yamaha FZ-X Design
The Yamaha FZ-X looks eerily similar to the Yamaha XSR155. Clearest images of the motorcycle surfaced in April, presumably from a commercial shoot. You can check them out here.
Other than these articles, you can also take a look at our full analysis of what we know about the bike so far. Once launched, Yamaha will finally be able to compete in the fast-growing retro segment where Royal Enfield has a strong footing. However, with the Yamaha FZ-X’s smaller capacity engine and presumably lower price, the Japanese brand should be able to find its own niche in the 150cc segment. What do you think? Let us know in the comments below.

- Best bike in all aspectsBest bike in all aspects like safety, riding comfort, mileage, look, reliability, upright poster, road visibility, city commuting, pickup. One negative is feels under power on highways at the time of overtake. Still it is a good choice if your focus is on mileage, engine refinement, low maintenance and upright poster. Yamaha needs to enhance its power for more selling.Read More5 5
