Yamaha FZ 25

The Yamaha FZ 25 has been awarded by India Design Mark for 2018, which in itself, speaks in spades about the masculine design of the motorcycle. The naked streetfighter offered by the praised Japanese two-wheeler manufacturer Yamaha, is designed to feed your athletic instincts with power and performance. Keeping its focus on mass forward layout and downforce, the Yamaha FZ 25 features a purely muscular design. The street fighter highlights a sense of innovation with its comprehensive LCD instrument cluster and the energy-efficient, three-light type LED headlights with AHO (Auto Headlamp On). The potential grunt Yamaha FZ 25 delivers is a result of its proven 249cc 4-stroke SOHC engine that is calibrated to perform impressively according to Indian traffic conditions. This mill is capable of generating a peak power of 20.9PS @ 8000rpm and makes up for peak torque values of 20Nm @ 6000rpm. The ideal ‘Blue Core’ technology integrated into the heart of the bike allows it to deliver a decent mileage of 43kmpl (claimed). The constant mesh 5-speed transmission mated to the engine delivers seamless power to the spoke wheels of the bike that are designed in a similar fashion to the racing MT Series bikes. The front telescopic forks and the rear mono-cross swing arm suspension offer a great deal of commendable handling and ride quality. The prompt braking capabilities that the sporty streetfighter demands are met by front 282mm disc and rear 220mm disc brake units. The Yamaha FZ 25 comes in three colour options - Blue, White, Black. With this, the bike is offered by the automaker at a competitive price of Rs 1.19 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). The current competition includes - TVS Apache RTR 200 R2.0 edition, Bajaj Pulsar NS 200, the KTM 200 Duke and the Hero Xtreme 200R.
