Yamaha FZ S [2012-2016] Mileage

I have used this bike for over 7 years and I never have regretted buying this. It’s good-looking, great mileage, comfortable. Great for city rides as well as outdoor trips. Smooth handling and Yamaha has a great service. In the city, I have seen it go as much as 40kmpl so that mileage is also amazing. Way to go Yamaha.

About the Reviewer

From 2013 onwards, FZ S was my partner in riding. The plus point is the mileage, the look, and the long-riding capability of the bike. I really loved the bike in every manner. While talking about look, the headlamp and tail lamp are the sexy ones. I have received good servicing from the team of Yamaha, but certain spares were unavailable at some service centers. Before giving for service, kindly ask them whether the spares are available or not.
The major negative I faced was the chain issue, I had to lubricate and tight the chain monthly.
PS;- The other problem I faced was while I took triples on my FZ S, my balls got jammed. This is a serious problem guys, so beware of that & take precautions, which means don't take triples.

I bought bike when it was much popular and no other bike was near this one. I was much amazed by its performance . Well balanced, silent run, mileage everything i got superb. I did long ride up to 400 km and i got no issue with my back. Spare parts are cheap. Only i got timely service from yamaha only and never faced any breakdown or offended moments. Overall a superb experience.

About the Reviewer

I bought yamaha fzs fiery orange in 2013 and now it is 6+ years old. Its a very long period of use and i hope my review will help many of the friends who wish to buy the fzs family. My fzs till now looks good and i have been taking it for long drives of about 550 km's per day. So far i have completed around 6 such kind of long drives and the fzs still looks good in the performance. Initially it comes with a dual cable carburetor and the pick up was very super, but the mileage is about 40 km's per litre. I thought to change it and made a fuel economy carburetor fitted with the help of yamaha service centre and the mileage drastically improves to around 50 km's/litre. On the other hand the pickup is reduced. Guys if you buy this bike, my recommendation is to take yamaha service always. Please don't compromise on this in order to maintain the performance and i also suggest you to use a petrol and engine oil of same brand and grade respectively always.Till now my bike is the best friend of me and without him my day will not complete.I had some repairs like suspension oil seal break and carbon in the piston. I rectified them immediately as soon as noticed. If you are planning for a long drive change your engine oil and better do it a service in the company service centre to avoid any discomfort during your ride. So far i haven't met anything and till now i have no plans to exchange this fzs because it becomes a part of my family. Love this bike.
