The R15’s new Vivid Magenta Metallic is a unique new colour scheme that will turn heads. This colour scheme will be exclusively available in Yamaha’s upscale Blue Square outlets.
The new colours in the FZ-S Fi V4 come in a glossy finish and look quite good. The existing Metallic Black color is now replaced with the striking Matte Black option and the seat colour for the entire FZ-S FI Ver 4.0 DLX range is now black.
The new Matte Grey on the FZ-S Fi V3 looks pretty dull in our opinion whereas the new Matte Cyan colour on the FZ-FI V3 reminds us of a similar shade in the Yamaha FZ25.
Coming to the FZ-X, Yamaha is planning on rolling out a Chrome version of the FZ-X and the price will be announced in February 2024. Yamaha seems to have taken inspiration from the Mr Clean Colour scheme of the Royal Enfield Continental GT 650. The price of the Chrome variant is expected to be fairly more than the other colour variants.
The updates are limited to cosmetics and all bikes listed haven’t seen any feature enhancements, let alone performance. Yamaha should’ve added more features particularly to the ageing Yamaha FZ range. That would’ve given the popular Yamaha bike more potential to go up against other Bajaj Pulsar and TVS Apache bikes.

Yes retro look with modern features can commute regularly without any backpains. Silent engine start and enlarge seat and position with handle is good. Good console digital meter, led lights with traction control, overall great bike.Read More
A good bike in this price segment, and Yamaha is a great company with great bike models. Love the R15, Yamaha, My dream bike is the Yamaha R15. It offers features like dual-channel ABS, VVA technology, good mileage, and premium hardware. It looks like a much more expensive bike, but I love Yamaha because this bike is priced under ₹2.5 lakh.Read More
