Yamaha FZ X Summary

The Yamaha FZ-X is a unique take on the 150cc sporty commuter segment, with its neo-retro design language complementing the engine and other mechanical bits shared with the Yamaha FZ commuter. The FZ-X goes up against the Kawasaki W175. Here’s how they compare.

Yamaha FZ X Price

The Yamaha FZ-X is on sale in India in a single variant with five colour options: Matte Copper, Dark Matte Blue, Matte Titan, Metallic Black and Chrome. The Matte Copper and the Metallic Black options are priced at Rs 1,36,200. Meanwhile, the Dark Matte Blue and Matte Titan colour options are priced at Rs 1,37,200 and the Chrome option is priced at Rs 1,39,700 (all prices ex-showroom, Delhi).

Yamaha FZ X Engine

The Yamaha FZ-X shares its BS6.2-compliant 149cc, air-cooled, SOHC single-cylinder engine with the Yamaha FZ-S range. Paired with a 5-speed gearbox, this tried-and-tested engine produces 12.4PS at7250rpm and 13.3Nm at5500rpm.

Yamaha FZ X Suspension & Brakes

The Yamaha FZ-X gets a 41mm telescopic fork and a 7-step preload-adjustable monoshock suspension setup. The motorcycle comes equipped with a 100/80-17 front tyre and a 140/60-R17 rear tyre. Braking duties are handled by a 282mm front disc and a 220mm rear disc.

With a ground clearance of 165mm, the Yamaha FZ-X has a 10-litre fuel tank with a seat height of 810mm.

Yamaha FZ X Key Features

Like most sporty commuters in the 150-160cc motorcycle category, the Yamaha FZ-X also has single-channel ABS, an LED tail lamp and a full-LCD instrument console with Bluetooth connectivity. However, it is one of the few affordable motorcycles to feature an LED projector headlight in its category, while also coming with LED turn indicators and traction control.

The negatively lit LCD instrument cluster on the Yamaha FZ-X packs in a speedometer, tachometer, fuel gauge, odometer tripmeter and given that it has Bluetooth connectivity, you can also see things like data for incoming calls and alerts.

Yamaha FZ X Rivals

The Yamaha FZ-X is a one-of-its-kind neo-retro offering in the 150cc commuter category, which otherwise has sportier offerings like Bajaj Pulsar N160, TVS Apache RTR 160 4V, Suzuki Gixxer, Hero Xtreme 160R, Honda SP160 and Yamaha’s own FZ-S V4.0. Other larger-capacity retro alternatives include the Kawasaki W175, TVS Ronin and Royal Enfield Hunter 350.

Yamaha FZ X Pros and Cons

Things We Like

  • Smooth and refined engine
  • Comfortable riding posture makes everyday commutes easy
  • With a tested real-world city mileage of 55kmpl, the FZ-X is pretty fuel-efficient for a 150cc bike

Things We Don't Like

  • Feels pretty underpowered for quick overtakes
  • Quite expensive for a 150cc commuter bike
  • The design looks quite awkward

FZ-X Expert Review

BikeDekho Experts
The Yamaha FZ-X looks unique and is based on the reliable Yamaha FZ platform. However, the performance is not really exciting and can be underwhelming for a 150cc bike. The FZ-X feels like a half-way product for riders who are waiting for the XSR155 to launch in India.

Overview

The Yamaha FZ-X is a premium neo-retro 150cc bike with unique styling. The Yamaha FZ-X uses the same engine and mechanical parts as the FZ-FI model and establishes Yamaha's presence in the popular neo-retro motorcycle segment.

Yamaha FZ-X Expert Review 7

Design

The Yamaha FZ-X is inspired by the stylish and globally acclaimed Yamaha XSR 155 neo-retro motorcycle. The inspiration is noticeable in the teardrop-shaped fuel tank, metal fender, and headlight brace. This design language gives the Yamaha FZ-X a distinctive personality compared to the FZ-S. 

The build quality of the FZ-X is on par with other Yamaha models. In its latest update, the Yamaha FZ-X received sleek LED lights and new colour choices. These new shades are Matte Titan, Chrome, Matte Copper, Metallic Black, and an exclusive Dark Matte Blue with golden alloy wheels. There are no alterations to the rear profile: The FZ-X has the same LED tail light and tubular grab rail.

Yamaha FZ-X Expert Review 6

Engine, Mileage & Performance

The Yamaha FZ-X shares its air-cooled, single-cylinder, 149cc engine with the FZ-FI series commuter motorbike. In the FZ-X, this engine generates 12.4PS @7250rpm of maximum power and 13.3Nm @5500rpm of maximum torque. This engine does a great job of reliably assisting a rider in their daily commutes. The power delivery is linear through the rev-range and the engine is complemented by a slick five-speed gearbox. The clutch action is very light and makes gear shifts effortless.

The engine operates smoothly even in higher gears without much strain. You can even ride at 30 kmph in fifth gear with no difficulty. The Yamaha FZ-X gets an impressive city mileage of 55.11 kmpl and highway mileage of 48.67 kmpl. These fuel efficiency figures make it a cost-effective 150cc commuter.

Yamaha FZ-X Expert Review 5

Handling & Ride Quality

The Yamaha FZ-X handles easily because of its lean profile. However, its dual-purpose tyres may not provide enough grip for aggressive cornering. The suspension setup comprises a 41mm telescopic fork at the front and a 7-step adjustable mono-shock at the rear. It can absorb road irregularities and reduce discomfort caused by uneven roads.

The brakes of the Yamaha FZ-X, 282mm front disc brake and 220mm rear disc brake, provide good stopping power. This twin-disc brake setup ensures stability even during sudden braking.

Yamaha FZ-X Expert Review 4

Comfort

The spacious single seat with plush cushioning of the Yamaha FZ-X is suitable for everyone. An upright riding posture, appropriately aligned controls, and slightly forward-positioned footrests give the riders a stress-free commuting position. 

On the other hand, extended rides on highways on the Yamaha FZ-X can be uncomfortable due to its soft seating. The FZ-X has a seat height of 810 mm, which is fair, and most riders can rest both feet firmly on the ground.

Yamaha FZ-X Expert Review 3

Features

The Yamaha FZ-X features an all-LED headlight and tail section and an informative LCD dashboard screen, which connects with the Yamaha Y-Connect application. 

With Y-Connect, users can access messages, phone calls, the last parking location, mileage details, technical fault warnings, and maintenance reminders. Unfortunately, there is no integrated GPS navigational assistance. 

The FZ-X also gets traction control, but it has limited usability in a motorcycle of its size and performance. Other inclusions in the Yamaha FZ-X include a USB charging socket and an asymmetric fuel container cap. The single-channel anti-lock brakes and the side-stand sensor that deactivates ignition improve safety. 

Yamaha FZ-X Expert Review 2

Should you buy Yamaha FZ X

The Yamaha FZ-X excels in urban settings with a good ride and handling balance, but it fails to outshine the other 150-160cc motorcycles in parameters such as outright performance and riding excitement. 

The eye-catching neo-retro design is the sole attraction, justifying Yamaha FZ-X's steep cost. The price is equivalent to the high-end version of TVS Apache RTR 160 4V, a superior-performing contender with far more features. At this price point, it becomes the cheapest Japanese neo-retro bike on sale.

    Superb seating comfort.
    The best things about this bike are riding comfort and mileage. The cons are: chain is becoming loose in less time, and also had to change chain kit after 1 year from the buying date. It has 5 stage power transmission. It would be good if it gets updated with 6 stage transmission and with more power. The price of the bike meeting very well to its features.

    Things you must know before owning a Yamaha FZ-X
    My Blue Yamaha FZ-X with Golden alloys will turn 2 year old this May of 2025. Pros: 1. Pretty good mileage if not driven roughly (Mine shows 40KMPL instead of the 50-55 KMPL that Yamaha and other owners claim due to rough driving and irregular maintenance) 2. Easy to corner. 3. Low maintenance cost. 4. Strong built (I have crashed the bike twice to realise this) Cons: 1. Stock headlights are not powerful enough. 2. The Digital interface is unnecessarily big which makes the front styling a bit weird. 3. Quick overtakes are out of question as it lacks power. 4. The bike could have used a 6th gear as the bike punches in max 5000rpm at 60-70 KMPH 5. Pillion riding is uncomfortable and tiring as the seat is small.
