Yamaha has launched the new FZ-X, its first neo-retro motorcycle in India. While it offers quite a bit for the money, its neo-retro design is a tad polarizing and may not fit everyone’s bill. Consequently, it shares its most crucial components with the streetfighter. The 149cc air-cooled fuel-injected 2-valve engine makes the same power and torque as the naked: 12.4PS at 7,250rpm and 13.3Nm at 5,500rpm. The FZ-X offers Yamaha the distinction of being the only retro bike in the 150cc segment. However, we wish Yamaha had also tweaked the engine with at least better torque output to complement its retro flair. On the other hand, the Apache RTR 160 4V has raised the benchmark of what to expect in a 160cc motorcycle. It not only costs less but also offers more power and torque: 17.63PS and 14.73Nm. That’s 5PS and 1.4Nm more than the FZ-X’s 12.4PS and 13.3Nm. Moreover, its class-leading output figures are complemented by sharp handling. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.
