Yamaha FZ-X design and specification

When I first saw the pics online at the launch event of the new FZ-X the bike looked a bit confused but in reality, it doesn’t feel all that bad at all. In terms of build quality, it promises quite a lot more. The Yamaha FZ-X comes with three colour options which are matte copper, metallic blue and my favourite matte black.

The bike has generous use of metal all around instead of plastic, like the retro sports classic looking fuel tank front fender and the besh plate are all made of metal. in the front FZ-X has a very unique looking round bi-functional led headlamp setup, it has one led bulb in the centre for a high beam as well as a low beam also the round led DRL does add a distinguished touch. The tail lamp Yamaha say was an inspiration from the rx100 and it does look as such.

The speedo console is newly designed and now it gets Bluetooth connectivity that displays call SMS and email alerts along with other bike statistics. Apart from this Yamaha FZ-X comes with an all-new ribbed pattern seat. It is perfectly cushioned which feels not too soft, not too hard.  Regarding suspension, we get 41 mm telescopic forks upfront and a seven-step adjustable rear mono-shock. In terms of tires, we get radial block pattern tires from MRF with a 140 section rear tire.

Yamaha FZ-X Engine performance

The Yamaha FZ-X is powered by an air-cooled, 4-stroke, 2-valve, single-cylinder fuel-injected, SOHC 149cc engine and the engine comes with a 5-speed gearbox. This 149cc engine produces 12.4 Ps of max power at 7250rpm and 13.3nm of max torque at 5500rpm.

The bottom and torque are good with good pick-up right off the mark also the mid-range punch is good with the bike effortlessly reaching 100km per hour and with the top speed of Yamaha FZ-X, you can go up to 120 kilometres per hour. Yamaha FZ-X comes with blue core technology which optimizes combustion efficiency. This bike comes with 10 litres of a fuel tank, talking about the mileage,  there is no claim as such but you can expect the same mileage as that of the FZ-X which is around 45 to 48 kmpl depending upon your riding style.  Yamaha FZ-X gets a 282 mm disc in the front and a 220 mm rear disc and for safety FZ-X comes with single-channel abs as standard.
