Yamaha FZ 25 vs Yamaha R15S

Question 1

Q. Which is better, Yamaha FZ 25 or TVS Ronin or Jawa 42?

Answer

Yamaha fz 25

Answer

Yamaha FZ 25 is powered by a 249 cc engine. This FZ 25 engine generates a power of 20.8 PS @ 8000 rpm and a torque of 20.1 Nm @ 6000 rpm. The new motorcycle gets an LED headlamp and tail lamp. The bike’s negative LCD display shows the real-time mileage apart from the regular trove of information. Another new feature in the BS6 model is the side-stand engine cutoff function. The FZ25 BS6’s premium variant, the FZS 25, gets knuckle guards, a longer windscreen, alloy wheels in the gold finish, and more premium color options. On the other hand, the Ronin is surely a brave new step for TVS. But despite the premium features and hardware, it does not entirely qualify as a jack-of-all-trades. It’s a well-rounded urban motorcycle dispatching city commutes with ease, but on the open road, it lacks oomph. Whereas, Jawa 42 is powered by a 293 cc engine. This 42 engine generates a power of 27. 33 PS and a torque of 27.02 Nm. Jawa has kept a minimal approach. It has equipped the 42 with an analogue speedometer, fuel gauge, and a small digital patch for the odometer readings while skipping the gear indicator and tachometer. Even the headlight and indicators use bulbs to keep the retro appeal flowing. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision.

Question 2

Q. Which is better between Yamaha FZ 25 and Yamaha MT 15 Version 2.0?

Answer

Yamaha FZ 25 is powered by a 249 cc engine. This FZ 25 engine generates a power of 20.8 PS @ 8000 rpm and a torque of 20.1 Nm @ 6000 rpm. The new motorcycle gets an LED headlamp and tail lamp. The bike’s negative LCD display shows the real-time mileage apart from the regular trove of information. Another new feature in the BS6 model is the side-stand engine cutoff function. The FZ25 BS6’s premium variant, the FZS 25, gets knuckle guards, a longer windscreen, alloy wheels in the gold finish, and more premium color options. On the other hand, The updates as expected have made the new MT-15 a better bike. It looks more premium, handles better and the addition of a few new features is welcome. But the dullness of the engine is disappointing and the lack of dual-channel ABS is just beyond any reasoning with this performance on tap. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.

Question 3

Q. I am around like 160cm. I need a openion on choosing bike. I don't want avenger and intruder. when I filter the bike list I just came to these 3 now 1. fz and fz25 2. dominar 250 3. Pulsar N250 F250. Hornet 2.0 ( if duel channel comes )which vehicle would you recommend. I got like 1 year experience of riding a 150 and 100 cc Splendor and fzv2?

Answer

As per your requirements, we'd suggest you to go with the Dominar 250. Apart from its accessible price tag, the Dominar 250 does one thing right -- it is fit to purpose. The 250cc motor may feel boring on the KTM, but it works beautifully on the Dominar especially when you combine it with its comfortable touring ergonomics. The seating stance is nearly upright with only a slight forward slant, the 800mm seat height makes for an easy reach, the wide handlebars are set fairly high and even the footpegs aren’t too rear set, making for a comfortable riding position. Moreover, you get a value for money product with Bajaj's aggressive pricing. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride for a better understanding of performance and comfort.

Question 4

Q. For riding in Chennai City r15v3 is good or Thunderbird 350X?

Answer

It's Simple Yamaha R15 V3 is best in Chennai City

Answer

The R15 has always had a singular focus. Performance. That leads to compromise in other aspects like ergonomics. Its sporty riding position comes courtesy of an 815mm high rider seat (up by 15mm over the v2). Despite the taller seat, we did not have an issue placing both feet on the ground. The riding position has become more aggressive and while it worked well on the track, riding in the city for an extended period did leave a minor discomfort in our wrists and upper back. Other than the clip-on, which now feels lower, the low-set footpegs are comfortable and the rest of the bike too didn't give us any reason to complain. You do need to be careful while taking U-turns though as the bars come pretty close to the fuel tank, and your hand getting too close to your knee during full lock does cause some issues. Especially on right-hand U-turns, it’s rather difficult to open the throttle as your wrist is resting on the tank at full lock. On the other hand, the Royal Enfield Thunderbird 350X has been discontinued and is not available for sale in the market. Moreover, we would suggest you take a test ride for a better understanding of performance and riding comfort.

Question 5

Q. Which is a good bike under 1.7 lakh onroad, I have shortlisted FZ 25, Apache 200 4V or should I go with Apache 160 4V as I will be using bike mainly in the city so kindly suggest from the mentioned bike or suggest if any ?

Answer

As per your requirement, we would suggest you go for TVS Apache RTR 160 4V. In the city, the RTR is just as frugal as before, however, it does burn a bit more fuel out on the highway. That’s probably because we maintained slightly higher speeds out on the highway since the motor felt more at ease, leading to it being a little less efficient. The extra performance does have a ripple effect on the refinement level, but it’s nothing alarming. If anything, the mild vibes kicking in while wringing the throttle make the bike feel more alive, which brings back memories from the older carb model -- a bike that was revered by almost everyone who rode it. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.

Question 6

Q. My height is 5.2 feet, which is better Dominar 250 or Yamaha R15 V3?

Answer

You may have to tip-toe the bike while moving the bike around in the parking lot or in stop-and-go traffic. Moreover

Answer

As per your requirements, we would suggest you to go with the Bajaj Dominar 250. The sports tourer offers a seat height of 800mm which is fairly accessible, however, you may have to tip-toe the bike while moving the bike around in the parking lot or in stop-and-go traffic. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.
