About the Reviewer

Ridden for (If Owned)	0-5000 km
Got mileage of	36 kmpl

Bought the yamaha fz 25 abs model in february 2019. Considering the highly rated reviews on youtube and feedback given by other riders on various blogs about this particular motorcycle, my expectations were high however within 3 months of use i can safely conclude that the yamaha fz 25 is a piece of junk at rupees 1.55 lakh on road price. There was already a clicking sound from the tappets of the engine within 1 month of use. I assure readers of this review that i have been a rider for almost 25 years and well aware of the restrictions of the initial run in period. I have not exceeded the mandated speed limits during the first 1000 kms run-in period. My first experience of yamaha service center was pathetic since the (so claimed) well trained service engineers at the yamaha authorized centers were not even able to open the tappet covers on the engine and instead damaged them during the process by not using the correct t tools. After a third visit to the yamaha authorized service center the yamaha engineers claimed to have fixed the tappet sounds but it still exists. There is also a clunky cluttering sound which starts emanating from the engine once you have reached the 45 - 60 kmph which is completely unexpected from a brand new bike. As per yamaha authorized service engineers this sound of clanking and clicking is a natural sound of the engine and they actually made me drive another very old rickety fz 25 just to prove their point. (honestly this is a nightmare and a pathetic joke). I read articles where people claim a top speed of 130 -- 140 kmph on this bike but i have my doubts since the engine on this bike starts rattling and their are serious vibrations once you reach 80 - 90 kmph. A new problem which started recently was the ignition key getting stuck when you try to withdraw it after locking the bike. Again yamaha engineers said it will be fine if we put some oil in it which did not happen. Since the bike is under warranty i asked them to replace the ignition lock set which they flatly refused. Overall if you can live with clattering and clicking highly irritating sound coming from the engine everyday that you this bike then go ahead and buy this motorcycle. The gear shifts during downshifting are inaccurate, hard and a real pain due to lack of a slipper clutch which is expected from a motorcycle in this price range. The front headlights which are led are an absolute joke and visibility is extremely poor (god knows what yamaha designers were thinking when designing this motorcycle). Good powerful headlights are extremely crucial on a motorcycle for riders overall safety specially at night. The only positive about this motorcycle is the amazing torque which comes at just 6000 rpm and gives you that sheer adrenaline rush which i understand is the top selling point of this motorcycle. A water cooled engine would have been an icing on the cake but as of now you have a air-cooled engine thanks to the cost cutting techniques from yamaha. The dual abs in the new 2019 model does a fantastic job at braking but the rear wheel braking definitely needs more more teeth and aggression. In terms of colour options you just get a very limited choice out of which the 2 matt finish are definitely not appealing and feels very cheap due to the all round matt finish plastic. When buying a new fz 25 abs you just don't get the feel of taking home a spanking shiny brand new bike if you have chosen the matt finish colour option. I think yamaha is trying to cut cost in the paint division too by restricting the colour options. Both the riding position,rider seat and also the pillion seat is broad and very comfortable unlike many other bikes and job well done by yamaha. The instrument cluster is basic and outdated and shows limited options on screen, you need to make multiple clicks on the switch to get additional information. It also does not have a gear indicator on the instrument console and with just 5 gears it may not be too confusing but definitely would have been more easier for riders when driving in heavy traffic. If you look around and understand the term value for money, then there are definitely other better options available in the market. You just need to do some r&d and maybe shell out some more cash but in the long run you won't regret your decision and the riding pleasure will nullify your pain of spending the extra... Ride safe and always wear your helmet..

Owning Yamaha is free from any problems. Want to upgrade my Yamaha from 150 to 250 for weekend rides and occasionally long rides and this bike served my my all purposes.
Because of the light, it is easy to maneuver in the city.
I have experienced 2 service centers and both have not given me any trouble instead suggested things to maintain my bike.
The only 1 con I can say is only for pillion-riding seats for rides.

The bike is amazing and has served me well for the past 5 years. I've ridden it every day, maintenance is affordable and easy to do even on your own. The only sad part is that it only has a 5-speed gearbox, and even on the 5th gear, it still has plenty of power and wants one more gear to fully use the power on hold. The bike looks great and all but needs a 6-speed gearbox to utilize it's full power

Honest Review After Driving 39000 km In 5 Years
1 year ago
Rahul Tak
I have been using this bike for the last 5 years. The bike is very good to ride in the city or on highways. The special thing is I never had a back pain issue while riding on this bike. Daily I am riding 50km in city traffic. I am getting 34 mileage per liter. The best part of this bike is the seating position. My height is 6 feet 4 and 4 inches and I never feel discomfort on this bike. I have completed more than 39k km driving and then given this honest review.

Better than royal enfield. Superb engine refinement, mileage around 37-40 kmpl which is amazing. Beats all royal enfield bikes in performance and re is nowhere close to yamaha's engine refinement, however, I know RE does not make performance bikes. And even in 250cc segment fz25 is little underpowered but atleast its better than RE . The most amazing part is engine refinement which is what Yamaha is known for and best mileage which are my top reasons to buy this bike. However this bike has an issue with ground clearance which is manageable if you ride alone but need to be taken care of, with a pillion rider

Most underrated bike of yamaha
1 year ago
Tanmay Mohapatra
1. Budget-friendly
2. Easy & comfortable to ride
3. Funky look with decent performance
4. Low-cost service 7 maintenance
5. Pros - You can do long & city rides. It's worth its prize on that 250 cc segment and performance is best, brakes are excellent, tire grip to the drifting is best, and services ok but need to improve.
Cons - 5 no gears instead of 6 & little low power as compared to 250cc Very smooth, comfortable yet powerful bike. Just got it a week ago and I really liked it. I am 6 feet tall and I guess it would be comfortable for people of any height. The exhaust sound is really impressive too. People are noticing my bike on the roads.

I have experienced 2 service centers and both have not given me any trouble instead suggested things to maintain my bike.
The only 1 con I can say is only for pillion-riding seats for rides.

Need more gears

The bike is amazing and has served me well for the past 5 years. I've ridden it every day, maintenance is affordable and easy to do even on your own. The only sad part is that it only has a 5-speed gearbox, and even on the 5th gear, it still has plenty of power and wants one more gear to fully use the power on hold. The bike looks great and all but needs a 6-speed gearbox to utilize it's full power

Honest Review After Driving 39000 km In 5 Years
1 year ago
Rahul Tak
I have been using this bike for the last 5 years. The bike is very good to ride in the city or on highways. The special thing is I never had a back pain issue while riding on this bike. Daily I am riding 50km in city traffic. I am getting 34 mileage per liter. The best part of this bike is the seating position. My height is 6 feet 4 and 4 inches and I never feel discomfort on this bike. I have completed more than 39k km driving and then given this honest review.

Drag king 25

Better than royal enfield. Superb engine refinement, mileage around 37-40 kmpl which is amazing. Beats all royal enfield bikes in performance and re is nowhere close to yamaha's engine refinement, however, I know RE does not make performance bikes. And even in 250cc segment fz25 is little underpowered but atleast its better than RE . The most amazing part is engine refinement which is what Yamaha is known for and best mileage which are my top reasons to buy this bike. However this bike has an issue with ground clearance which is manageable if you ride alone but need to be taken care of, with a pillion rider

Most underrated bike of yamaha
1 year ago
Tanmay Mohapatra
1. Budget-friendly
2. Easy & comfortable to ride
3. Funky look with decent performance
4. Low-cost service 7 maintenance
5. Pros - You can do long & city rides. It's worth its prize on that 250 cc segment and performance is best, brakes are excellent, tire grip to the drifting is best, and services ok but need to improve.
Cons - 5 no gears instead of 6 & little low power as compared to 250cc Very smooth, comfortable yet powerful bike. Just got it a week ago and I really liked it. I am 6 feet tall and I guess it would be comfortable for people of any height. The exhaust sound is really impressive too. People are noticing my bike on the roads.

You can go for N250 but this bike is big and looks good and attracts people
Comfortable and easy trick. Maintenance of this bike is very easy. This bike lacks only 2 things 1 additional gear and instrument cluster but when you drive it in city you won't need 6th gear, go for it.
