Yamaha FZ-S FI V4 : More Details
Under its ‘The Call of the Blue’ initiative, India Yamaha Motor Pvt. Ltd (IYM) has launched the FZS-Fi with refreshed styling updates. Known as the FZS-Fi Deluxe, IYM will offer the bike in two new colour options. Yamaha states that both bike versions retain the same design proportion from the 3rd generation FZ-Fi series.
The FZS-Fi is powered by a 149cc, air-cooled motor which produces 12.4 PS and 13.3 Nm. Yamaha has paired the SOHC, 4-stroke, 2-valve engine to a constant mesh, 5-speed manual gearbox, and an electric starter. For comfort and handling, the bikes feature a telescopic front suspension and a 7-step adjustable monocross rear suspension. With 17-inch alloy wheels on both ends, the bikes sport a 790 mm seat height and 165 mm of ground clearance.
Yamaha has equipped the bike with a single 282mm front brake disc and a single 220mm rear brake disc. Along with dual-channel ABS, both bikes also feature Yamaha’s Bluetooth-Enabled Connect-X App, including a host of convenient features. Riders can use the App to Answer Back calls, Locate the Vehicle, Record their parking & check their Riding History. Other bike features include a multi-function LCD instrument cluster, a tire-hugging rear mudguard and a lowered engine guard.
Yamaha R3 makes a comeback in a BS6-compliant avatar
Yamaha used to sell the R3 before the BS5 emission norms. However, since early 2020, the bike is no longer sold. Meanwhile, the MT-03 is nothing but the naked version of the R3.
The YZF-R3 is a fully-faired motorcycle that will compete against the KTM RC390 and Kawasaki Ninja 300 in the Indian market. On the other hand, the MT-03 will be a direct rival to the KTM 390 Duke. Both motorcycles come equipped with a 321cc parallel-twin, liquid-cooled engine, producing 40.4 BHP and 29.4Nm of peak torque.
