Underneath the stars, my bike takes on a new allure, its headlights cutting through the darkness as I journey into the night. The quiet hum of the engine and the solitude of the road create a meditative atmosphere, allowing me to reflect and unwind after a long day. The Yamaha FZ-X is a styling street fighter bike that races off-road trails with the same intuition you drive in towns. When you look at this motorcycle, with its tough appearance and wild styling, you can't help but feel empowered with the impression that this bike can perform and handle mountains of any difficulties, and that makes it the right motorbike for riders open to new experiences and adventure. The FZ-X sees to it that the bike delivers terrific performance on the road through a strong engine and responsive handling properties, and it also ensures comfort for long rides by (bearing) state-of-the-art features and wonderful ergonomics. I don't care if it's crawling through the city traffic or going out and adapting to desert conditions; this bike is ready to provide the best of independence and performance caught in two bells.

    1. The buying experience was quite similar with other brands, as companies have understood the fact that initial impressions go a long way with customers. Having said that, i had actually cancelled my advance booking amount for X440 Harley which was one of the best decisions i could have made.
    2. I owned a vespa for 3 years and sold it for a good price. After going for multiple test drives for different bikes, my priority being comfort, good road presence and pillion comfort for my better half, this was the best option, The most common impression and response people gave was "Why didn't you go for Royal Enfield/Ronin?", my answer was simple, a. It has reduced itself to common bike after offering EMI options and aggressive sales with most of them selling back to market for financial issues(check OLX) and b. the Total weight of the bike with full tank of fuel is above 200 kg which, my friend is hellish in hot, humid, polluted weather at a red light.
    3. It could have more power, which i only felt missing when i travelled to hill stations nearby, but in city, the opportunity to go beyond 60 km/hr + is rare, just like the times this bike will disappoint you in performance VERY RARE
    4. SERVICING IS EXPENSIVE. YAMAHA WILL CHARGE YOU FOR THE TECHNOLOGY THEY PROVIDE NOT AT THE PRODUCT PURCHASE BUT AT THE SERVICE CENTER. I can talk to any Yamaha representative and he will agree to this point 100%. For reference, its double of Hero. In my case, if it was just little more affordable i would have praised it.
    5. Must Buy for someone who is looking for :
    a. Comfort for driver and pillion : Good weight distribution & Straight seat
    b. Looks like cruiser but superb maneuvering in traffic
    c. no problem in paying extra for service
    d. Surely a head turner from daily bike rosters

    Go to a service center for every issue, don't go to local mechanics. you will observe a price difference in both parts and service but it's worth it to go to the company service center.

  • Good bike with under powered engine

    8 weeks ago


    Mahendra

    Bought it from I Yamaha KR Puram Bangalore and it was a pleasant, quick buying experience.
    My initial riding experience was so bad and at one point I thought to replace it with better expensive alternates. The bike pick-up was so bad compared to my previous FZS 2013 version. Compared to my old bike FZX has an excellent riding posture that doesn't affect my long-ride plans and that one thing stopped me from trying this bike further.
    Post second servicing my riding experience has improved a lot, except for the pickup part. I have added a saddle box that can hold up to 15kg and the bike was handling the changes very well. Though the projector lamp is a good feature, still I had to add fog lights with a good throw.
    By the end of six months, I had covered around 8.5KM on this bike which covers highways, Ghat roads, and dirt roads, and the bike is easy to handle on all of them. Not a good choice for any kind of off-road due to the very low-powered engine.
    TCS and single ABS are providing a good handling compared to my old bike, breaking at high speeds is still manageable. once the bike exceeds 90 or 95 the bike vibrates badly and riding would be uncomfortable.

    1. Irrespective of price point it is a very good bike and the behaviour of the staff at the showroom is also very decent and cooperative. If you buy it for daily commuting you will not be disappointed
    2. The bike is a little bit high with a seat height of 810 mm but believe me it feels like 830+ due to its wide seat it will be difficult for short riders to flat foot on the ground. But its ground clearance is not good it touches high bumps if you are riding with a healthy pillion. It is very easy to ride in the city and on highways also. Its wide tires give you extra confidence while cornering but it doesn't provide ABS in the rear disc brake so if you push it hard the rear wheel skids but it is manageable. Next, the turning radius of the bike is not so good. You need a large space to take a complete U-turn. The engine is butter smooth and there is zero vibration up to 80. It provides Bluetooth connectivity but it must be improved as it can't automatically connect with the mobile a maximum number of times.
    3. Looks are subjective but looks like a bigger cc bike and its muscular looks often attract people's attention
    4. maintenance cost is affordable but the price of parts is a little bit higher side
    5. conclusion
    Pros-
    @ Looks big.
    @ easy to ride and handle in traffic.
    @ zero vibration.
    @ good mileage around 50.
    @ projector, headlamp is very good at night.
    Cons-
    @ not for short riders <5.6
    @ not good ground clearance
    @ feels lack of power while overtaking

  • Perfect bike for city and long rides

    10 weeks ago


    Jitendra

    Writing my review after 2.5 years of riding this wonderful bike.
    Very comfortable for city and highway rides. I have travelled to mountains with this bike and plains covering thousands of km. I never encountered any challenges.
    Mileage (50+km/l)is perfect in this segment.
    Faced a problem with the fuel injector once which got replaced under warranty.
    The only cons I see is Gear shifting which is not as smooth. Rest everything is perfect.

  • Best Bike under 150 cc

    10 weeks ago


    Alok Trivedi

    One of the stylish bikes gets 50+ km mileage. Under 165000. Having riding comfort.
    You can drive comfortably 200 km without taking a brake.
    Not feel any problem after riding this bike for more 4000 Km.
    With Y Connecting feature.
    Only Cons - Switch gear sometimes I feel it could be better and better.

    Chandrakanta Sahoo

    It's a very good bike..... If you a looking for a crusier bike with good mileage and features then this one is for you... But if you are a speed rider... Then it's not suitable for you... Cause its hp is 12 and torque is quite low... As compared to other 150cc bikes... And also the back look of the bike is not so good as compared to the front look.

    1. The buying experience was quite similar with other brands, as companies have understood the fact that initial impressions go a long way with customers. Having said that, i had actually cancelled my advance booking amount for X440 Harley which was one of the best decisions i could have made.
    2. I owned a vespa for 3 years and sold it for a good price. After going for multiple test drives for different bikes, my priority being comfort, good road presence and pillion comfort for my better half, this was the best option, The most common impression and response people gave was "Why didn't you go for Royal Enfield/Ronin?", my answer was simple, a. It has reduced itself to common bike after offering EMI options and aggressive sales with most of them selling back to market for financial issues(check OLX) and b. the Total weight of the bike with full tank of fuel is above 200 kg which, my friend is hellish in hot, humid, polluted weather at a red light.
    3. It could have more power, which i only felt missing when i travelled to hill stations nearby, but in city, the opportunity to go beyond 60 km/hr + is rare, just like the times this bike will disappoint you in performance VERY RARE
    4. SERVICING IS EXPENSIVE. YAMAHA WILL CHARGE YOU FOR THE TECHNOLOGY THEY PROVIDE NOT AT THE PRODUCT PURCHASE BUT AT THE SERVICE CENTER. I can talk to any Yamaha representative and he will agree to this point 100%. For reference, its double of Hero. In my case, if it was just little more affordable i would have praised it.

    One of the stylish bikes gets 50+ km mileage. Under 165000. Having riding comfort.
    You can drive comfortably 200 km without taking a brake.
    Not feel any problem after riding this bike for more 4000 Km.
    With Y Connecting feature.
    Only Cons - Switch gear sometimes I feel it could be better and better.

    It's a very good bike..... If you a looking for a crusier bike with good mileage and features then this one is for you... But if you are a speed rider... Then it's not suitable for you... Cause its hp is 12 and torque is quite low... As compared to other 150cc bikes... And also the back look of the bike is not so good as compared to the front look.

    1. The buying experience was quite similar with other brands, as companies have understood the fact that initial impressions go a long way with customers. Having said that, i had actually cancelled my advance booking amount for X440 Harley which was one of the best decisions i could have made.
    2. I owned a vespa for 3 years and sold it for a good price. After going for multiple test drives for different bikes, my priority being comfort, good road presence and pillion comfort for my better half, this was the best option, The most common impression and response people gave was "Why didn't you go for Royal Enfield/Ronin?", my answer was simple, a. It has reduced itself to common bike after offering EMI options and aggressive sales with most of them selling back to market for financial issues(check OLX) and b. the Total weight of the bike with full tank of fuel is above 200 kg which, my friend is hellish in hot, humid, polluted weather at a red light.
    3. It could have more power, which i only felt missing when i travelled to hill stations nearby, but in city, the opportunity to go beyond 60 km/hr + is rare, just like the times this bike will disappoint you in performance VERY RARE
    4. SERVICING IS EXPENSIVE. YAMAHA WILL CHARGE YOU FOR THE TECHNOLOGY THEY PROVIDE NOT AT THE PRODUCT PURCHASE BUT AT THE SERVICE CENTER. I can talk to any Yamaha representative and he will agree to this point 100%. For reference, its double of Hero. In my case, if it was just little more affordable i would have praised it.
    5. Must Buy for someone who is looking for :
    a. Comfort for driver and pillion : Good weight distribution & Straight seat
    b. Looks like cruiser but superb maneuvering in traffic
    c. no problem in paying extra for service
    d. Surely a head turner from daily bike rosters

  • Good bike with under powered engine

    8 weeks ago


    Mahendra

    Bought it from I Yamaha KR Puram Bangalore and it was a pleasant, quick buying experience.
    My initial riding experience was so bad and at one point I thought to replace it with better expensive alternates. The bike pick-up was so bad compared to my previous FZS 2013 version. Compared to my old bike FZX has an excellent riding posture that doesn't affect my long-ride plans and that one thing stopped me from trying this bike further.
    Post second servicing my riding experience has improved a lot, except for the pickup part. I have added a saddle box that can hold up to 15kg and the bike was handling the changes very well. Though the projector lamp is a good feature, still I had to add fog lights with a good throw.
    By the end of six months, I had covered around 8.5KM on this bike which covers highways, Ghat roads, and dirt roads, and the bike is easy to handle on all of them. Not a good choice for any kind of off-road due to the very low-powered engine.
    TCS and single ABS are providing a good handling compared to my old bike, breaking at high speeds is still manageable. once the bike exceeds 90 or 95 the bike vibrates badly and riding would be uncomfortable.

    1. Irrespective of price point it is a very good bike and the behaviour of the staff at the showroom is also very decent and cooperative. If you buy it for daily commuting you will not be disappointed
    2. The bike is a little bit high with a seat height of 810 mm but believe me it feels like 830+ due to its wide seat it will be difficult for short riders to flat foot on the ground. But its ground clearance is not good it touches high bumps if you are riding with a healthy pillion. It is very easy to ride in the city and on highways also. Its wide tires give you extra confidence while cornering but it doesn't provide ABS in the rear disc brake so if you push it hard the rear wheel skids but it is manageable. Next, the turning radius of the bike is not so good. You need a large space to take a complete U-turn. The engine is butter smooth and there is zero vibration up to 80. It provides Bluetooth connectivity but it must be improved as it can't automatically connect with the mobile a maximum number of times.
    3. Looks are subjective but looks like a bigger cc bike and its muscular looks often attract people's attention
    4. maintenance cost is affordable but the price of parts is a little bit higher side
    5. conclusion
    Pros-
    @ Looks big.
    @ easy to ride and handle in traffic.
    @ zero vibration.
    @ good mileage around 50.
    @ projector, headlamp is very good at night.
    Cons-
    @ not for short riders <5.6
    @ not good ground clearance
    @ feels lack of power while overtaking

    Writing my review after 2.5 years of riding this wonderful bike.
    Very comfortable for city and highway rides. I have travelled to mountains with this bike and plains covering thousands of km. I never encountered any challenges.
    Mileage (50+km/l)is perfect in this segment.
    Faced a problem with the fuel injector once which got replaced under warranty.
    The only cons I see is Gear shifting which is not as smooth. Rest everything is perfect.

    Mileage (50+km/l)is perfect in this segment.
    Faced a problem with the fuel injector once which got replaced under warranty.
    The only cons I see is Gear shifting which is not as smooth. Rest everything is perfect.

    1. irrespective of price point it is a very good bike and the behaviour of the staff at the showroom is also very decent and cooperative. If you buy it for daily commuting you will not be disappointed
    2. the bike is a little bit high with a seat height of 810mm but believe me it feels like 830+ due to its wide seat it will be difficult for short riders to flat foot on the ground. But its ground clearance is not good it touches high bumps if you are riding with a healthy pillion.
    It is very easy to ride in the city and on highways also
    Its wide tyres give you extra confidence while cornering but it doesn't provide ABS in the rear disc brake so if you push it hard the rear wheel skids but it is manageable
    Next, the turning radius of the bike is not so good. You need a large space to take a complete U-turn
    The engine is butter smooth and there is zero vibration up to 80
    It provides Bluetooth connectivity but it must be improved as it can't automatically connect with the mobile a maximum number of times
    3. Looks are subjective but looks like a bigger cc bike and its muscular looks often attract people's attention
    4. maintenance cost is affordable but the price of parts is a little bit higher side
    5. conclusion
    Pros-
    @ Looks big.
    @easy to ride and handle in traffic.
    @ zero vibration.
    @ good mileage around 50.
    @ projector, head lamp is very good at night.
    Cons-
    @ not for short riders <5.6
    @not good ground clearance
    @ feels lack of power while overtaking

    One of the stylish bikes gets 50+ km mileage. Under 165000. Having riding comfort.
    You can drive comfortably 200 km without taking a brake.
    Not feel any problem after riding this bike for more 4000 Km.
    With Y Connecting feature.
    Only Cons - Switch gear sometimes I feel it could be better and better.

    It's a very good bike..... If you a looking for a crusier bike with good mileage and features then this one is for you... But if you are a speed rider... Then it's not suitable for you... Cause its hp is 12 and torque is quite low... As compared to other 150cc bikes... And also the back look of the bike is not so good as compared to the front look.

    FZ-X ia Aderoble bike . I have been using this for the last 1.5 years, very comfortable very stylish and super on the Road. Mielege is also Superb. My Riding Experience is Extremely Satisfied. Also, performance is. Monster and it is best at The price. If you Compare another bike between RS 150000 to RS 200000 I think This is the best option.
