The FZ 25 is the bigger, more powerful version of the Yamaha FZ Version 2.0 currently on sale in India and is priced between their popular offerings – R15 and the Yamaha R3.
The FZ 25 is powered by a 249cc, single-cylinder engine that is air-cooled and comes equipped with fuel-injection technology.
It comes mated to a 5-speed gearbox and delivers 20.9 horsepower at 8000 RPM and 20 Nm torque at 6000 RPM.
The bike manages to keep a compact design despite the bigger engine as it has a relatively comfortable seat height of 795 mm and a ground clearance of 160 mm.
The fuel tank capacity on th eFZ 25 is 14 litres.
It also gets LED tail lamps along with an all-digital instrument cluster and will be available in three colours – Knight Black, Ballistic Blue and Warrior White.
In terms of stopping power, a 282 mm front disc and a 220 mm rear disc brake have been offered and as of now, it misses out on ABS.
What remains to be seen is how the bike performs in real-world conditions and how it fares against the sub-Rs 2 lakh motorcycle segment in India which has been dominated by KTM and has got a new challenger in the form of the Bajaj Dominar 400
