I bought fazer about a year ago. Options were many. Pulsar 220 was just 6k more. The cc difference was huge. I went with fazer because of poor plastic quality of bajaj. Have driven pulsar 220 of my brother, which was far from being comfortable. It has got engine vibrations in less than a year. Fazer and fz have same engine and power but i went for looks(remember, my brother has plusar 220).



Negatives : to begin with fazer is heavy and less engine power than a comparable looking bike. It takes a lot of ground to turn. At night, only one side head lamp glows which is a turns off and looks awkward. The pillion is not comfortable and you will get back pain if you are sitting behind for a long duration. Its not a tour bike as claimed by yamaha. The rare tyre being widest of all the bike tend to wear out fast. I had to change my rear tyre within a year of purchase. Once reached 75kmph, it takes a much longer time to reach 90kmph and if road is open you will struggle to get it past 100kmph. Rare breake is non existent.



Positives : looks it gives in that price. Being heavy it is grounded to road. The rare tyre never allows the bike to slip, but be aware of using front break in rough roads. Once had an accident(hit a dog and slipped) at 75kmph but escaped unhurt as the leg guard and wiser protected me in front. Helmet was life saver. The pickup is awesome. You can dare any bike at traffic stop. The drive is smooth. Engine vibrations is negligible. Photogenic bike:p. Plastic quality is better than any other bike. Product quality as a whole is good. Brand yamaha is any day better than brand bajaj/ hero. If you follow the schedule servicing, you need not visit servicing center for any other problem.



Pros

comfort, sound, pick up, looks

cons

power, breakes

    My father bought it in 2010 and the first experience is very awesome because this bike has a sporty look with a handlebar which makes it perfect for long rides and daily commutes. Its servicing and maintenance costs are very low.
    Pros-
    The engine is very efficient and gives a better mileage of 45kmpl. The seat is very comfortable.
    Cons-
    The engine vibrates a little bit at higher rpm and gets heated up quickly.

  • Worst decision to buy FAZER (waste of money)

    38 weeks ago


    Nipun Sharma

    I bought Yamaha Fazer in year 2011 left home a bit to buy Bajaj Pulsar but ended up buying a Fazer as the showrooms were almost closed and that decision of mine was proven to be the worst one
    Very heavy bike in the segment, riding was smooth but much more expensive as the mileage that was claimed (50km/l) by the co. was never achieved just gave me mileage between 30-35. I have never sped up using the bike as it is said more speed will lower the mileage of the vehicle but still very little mileage
    if you wanna have a trendy-looking bike then this is the one for you but if expecting value for money don't go for it
    performance: if you are looking for high speed vehicle then you can buy it, the balance of the bike is good
    servicing: after-sales service is very poor as well as maintenance is very expensive as and when I went for servicing the workers were unskilled every point we have to tell them again and again, if you need some part to be replaced then it took very long to get it.

    This bike is best in class
    For long rides , city rides . Engine is smooth, Riding comfort is good, for me power is slightly less compared to others in this segment, and we do lot of modifications, top speed is 112, suspension is
    unimaginable , and radial tyre give you better experience, under 80km/hr there no need of ABS..

    After 10 years and 70k kms I'm still happy with Yamaha. Annual average maintenance costs me <5k. I get vehicle serviced for every 2.5k KMS and currently get a mileage of 38 KMPL. Headlamps are modified for both to operate simultaneously, replaced with 30W LED when6I bought the vehicle. Battery replaced once so far.

    6 years ago


    Prajan

    Hello everyone,I owned my fazer version 1 special edition for my daily usage and also sometimes long trips.Here i'm sharing my travel experience with my bike. Pros : 1. Really looking very stylish and the mirror is just look likes eagle wings while we drive. Feels great 2. Mileage is also good , getting 35 to 40 pl sometimes on long drive getting 43 like that 3. Engine is very smooth , moving sounds good 4. Long drives feels amazing, but little bit fear ( because riding a big & length vehicle on the road)5. Back tyre awesome , such a safety ride, no worry about back tyre 6. Overall performance of fazer is excellent.Cons :1. Important thing this vehicle very suitable for tall person with having long hands.2. Average tall persons cannot sit straight and operate the vehicle long period or distance 3 .Definitely will get back pain and neck pain while drive 70 to 80 km like that.5. Apart from that , vehicle performance is good.

  • Average tall persons cannot sit straight and operate this vehicle

    6 years ago


    Prajan

    Hello everyone,I owned my fazer version 1 special edition for my daily usage and also sometimes long trips.Here i'm sharing my travel experience with my bike. Pros : 1. Really looking very stylish and the mirror is just look likes eagle wings while we drive. Feels great 2. Mileage is also good , getting 35 to 40 pl sometimes on long drive getting 43 like that 3. Engine is very smooth , moving sounds good 4. Long drives feels amazing, but little bit fear ( because riding a big & length vehicle on the road)5. Back tyre awesome , such a safety ride, no worry about back tyre 6. Overall performance of fazer is excellent.Cons :1. Important thing this vehicle very suitable for tall person with having long hands.2. Average tall persons cannot sit straight and operate the vehicle long period or distance 3 .Definitely will get back pain and neck pain while drive 70 to 80 km like that.5. Apart from that , vehicle performance is good.

  • Mind blowing bike

    29 weeks ago


    Shibam Ghosh

    My father bought it in 2010 and the first experience is very awesome because this bike has a sporty look with a handlebar which makes it perfect for long rides and daily commutes. Its servicing and maintenance costs are very low.
    Pros-
    The engine is very efficient and gives a better mileage of 45kmpl. The seat is very comfortable.
    Cons-
    The engine vibrates a little bit at higher rpm and gets heated up quickly.

  • Worst decision to buy FAZER (waste of money)

    38 weeks ago


    Nipun Sharma

    I bought Yamaha Fazer in year 2011 left home a bit to buy Bajaj Pulsar but ended up buying a Fazer as the showrooms were almost closed and that decision of mine was proven to be the worst one
    Very heavy bike in the segment, riding was smooth but much more expensive as the mileage that was claimed (50km/l) by the co. was never achieved just gave me mileage between 30-35. I have never sped up using the bike as it is said more speed will lower the mileage of the vehicle but still very little mileage
    if you wanna have a trendy-looking bike then this is the one for you but if expecting value for money don't go for it
    performance: if you are looking for high speed vehicle then you can buy it, the balance of the bike is good
    servicing: after-sales service is very poor as well as maintenance is very expensive as and when I went for servicing the workers were unskilled every point we have to tell them again and again, if you need some part to be replaced then it took very long to get it.

    Aravinthsarathy

    If you maintain well...
    This bike is best in class
    For long rides , city rides . Engine is smooth, Riding comfort is good, for me power is slightly less compared to others in this segment, and we do lot of modifications, top speed is 112, suspension is
    unimaginable , and radial tyre give you better experience, under 80km/hr there no need of ABS..

    3 years ago


    Haron Dsouza

    After 10 years and 70k kms I'm still happy with Yamaha. Annual average maintenance costs me <5k. I get vehicle serviced for every 2.5k KMS and currently get a mileage of 38 KMPL. Headlamps are modified for both to operate simultaneously, replaced with 30W LED when6I bought the vehicle. Battery replaced once so far.
