Embracing Adventure: Yamaha FZ-X

That deep crouch, that eagle eye, that precision touch, Yamaha FZ-X says it all. It recreates adventure in a rugged design and power-packed 149cc engine, making for unforgettable rides on and off the road. The muscular stance, raised seats and a high handle bar that the motorcycle creates and then fuses them to modern items like the LED lighting and digital screen to gives it the street look. FZ-X provides this combination between dynamic performance and comfort, having compensated ride quality and impressive handling response. Nevertheless, the fact that its seat height is high on the spinal column may inconvenience the riders who are not physically developed, while its safety component being just a conventional brake may be a drawback. In conclusion, this device is both fashionable and energetic enough to be a great mate during the city explorations.

A Complete Package

I just took possession of a Yamaha FZ-X, and it already feels like home. Budget is affordable as the price is the best in the market. So, with superb mileage and high fuel economy, it is ideal for daily trips. The badass exterior takes you by surprise while the cozy seat is sure to make you drooling. The donkey engine provides enough power, the bike is spacious enough for a smooth ride. It comes with a variety of color schemes and also safety features are essential.

Yamaha FZ X Pros and Cons

FZ-X Positives Points: Smooth and refined engine, High fuel efficiency, especially in the city, Comfortable ergonomics

FZ-X Negatives Points: Polarising design might not appeal to everyone, Performance is severely lacking

Zigwheels Expert's Conclusion : While the FZ-X certainly looks unique and runs on the tried and tested Yamaha FZ platform, it severely under delivers in terms of performance and feels like a consolation prize for those eagerly waiting for Yamaha to launch the XSR155 in India.

Pretty approachable

3.8

Yamaha is clearly going for the allure of comfort and practicality with the fz-x.Compared with the fz, The ergos are more relaxed, With a higher handlebar, More forward-set foot pegs, As well as a wider and more spacious seat.The seat height has gone up slightly, But at 810mm it should still be pretty approachable for a majority of riders.The predominant experience on the road is that the fz-x feels light and easy on its feet.At 139kg, It weighs 4kg more than the standard fz, But that’s because components like the fuel tank, Fake radiator shrouds, Front mudguard, Headlamp brackets and thin bash guard at the bottom are now all metal.The actual handling itself is fine, With a balanced and neutral chassis, But it’s certainly not the sharpest or most exciting bike in the segment.The mrf dual-purpose tyres it runs on work fine on dry surfaces, But they don’t appreciate being pushed too hard.Ride quality is decent, With a slightly firm feel from the suspension and while the front brake feels quite dull, The actual braking performance is adequate.A rear disc is standard and the fz-x comes with single-channel abs.The fz-x may be styled like a scrambler, But its actual off-road capability is pretty much identical to the standard fz.That’s because the suspension travel and ground clearance remain the same and the only difference is the extra grip the tyres provide in the dirt.With its smaller fuel tank, The fz-x is going to need more frequent fuel stops because it runs the same motor from the fz, And that includes internal gearing as well as the chain sprocket sizes.What you get is a simple, Air-cooled two-valve, 149cc engine with a smooth 5-speed gearbox.Power stands at a meek 12.4hp while peak torque is 13.3nm.Both figures are not only the lowest in the segment by a considerable margin, But the power figure is just 0.4hp higher than the bajaj pulsar ns125, Which we have also reviewed this month.Yamaha fz-x: should i buy one?this is not a cheap bike by any means, And the y-connect bluetooth-enabled model costs about rs 12, 000 more than the standard fz-s fi.At this price, It’s more expensive than the premium 150-160cc bikes from bajaj, Hero, Honda, Suzuki and tvs, And is positioned on par with the hero xpulse 200.To sum up, The fz-x is certainly a striking and unique motorcycle, And that’s pretty much the main reason to consider buying one.If you like the way it looks, You’ll be getting a tried and tested platform underneath, With a practical, Yet eye-catching motorcycle on top.But if the design doesn’t do it for you, There are plenty of more convincing options out there.

Great Bike

The Yamaha FZ-X offers a balanced driving experience with its upright riding position and comfortable seat. The handling is nimble, making it suitable for both city commutes and occasional long rides. However, the seat could be more cushioned for enhanced long-distance comfort. The best aspect of the FZ-X is its stylish design, reminiscent of a classic scrambler with modern touches. The worst aspect would be its slightly firm suspension, which can be felt on rough roads, affecting the overall comfort. In terms of performance, the FZ-X impresses with its refined engine, delivering adequate power for urban riding and occasional highway cruises. The mileage is decent, offering good fuel efficiency in its segment. The pickup is smooth and responsive, providing a satisfying riding experience. Build quality is commendable, with sturdy construction ensuring durability over time. Regarding vibrations, while the FZ-X manages vibrations well at lower speeds, they become noticeable at higher revs, affecting overall refinement. In terms of features, it comes equipped with essential amenities like LED lighting, digital instrument cluster, and Bluetooth connectivity, although additional features could enhance its appeal further. Yamaha's after-sale service has generally been reliable, with a widespread network of service centers ensuring prompt assistance for maintenance and repairs. However, occasional delays in spare parts availability have been reported, which can inconvenience owners. Overall, the Yamaha FZ-X is a stylish and capable offering in the commuter segment, excelling in design and performance while offering decent comfort and efficiency. With some improvements in suspension tuning and refinement, it could elevate its standing even further in the market.

I got my FZ-X variant last

I got my fz-x variant last year in august, 2021.First things first, I bought it only for the looks and the driving experience at the time of purchase was secondary, And it has not disappointed me in that regards.People have stopped me and asked about the bike.Coming to the driving part, I'll list the pros first:extremely good handling, The rider balance is great, Pickup is good as well almost on par with apache.Company installed tyres' grip is good for ride on wet and scratchy roads.Mileage is as expected they promised 45 to me, But it is around 36-38 for me.Now moving on to the cons:isn't made for most indian roads and you could not just sense but hear the vibrations when your tyres go into small pit.Has to make a lot of effort to touch 100 kmph mark.If you take it out during rain, Even though it's handling is fine, You will not come back without the dirt on all over your pants, And if you are the pillion rider, Then 'god save you'.The bike comes with a bluetooth connection and it's details can be tracked on the 'yamaha app' but the app looks like a college project without any actual(or working) functionality.So i hope now i have cleared some doubts about the bike.

Worst bike

The first bike booked in 2021 from andhrapradesh state.I experienced the worst bike i have ever seen because my bike wiring is burned when it is in parking.Then i applied for warranty show room service manager said claim not come due to inproper servicing.But in my area there is no proper mechanics for service in show rooms then how i will.I experienced there is no resale value for this bike.Some finance companies are not doing finanace also.They rate my bike 45000 only.So my humble request to all guys who are willing to buy fz-x, Plz don't choose this bike.I give this bike zero rating.

Indians don

1.0

Honestly saying yamaha india is among those company who don't think about there customers or respect there choice, They peeped at our face by launch a gly bike with a sht engine in a higher price point.I don't know why vc of yamaha think we indians don't deserve xsr155.Do you think covering the sht engine with a gly cheap design will make you money.Also i can see some so called influencers are telling good about this sht bike.I would advise everyone to buy other bike like apache xtreme gixxer with your hard earn money.

2.6

Tow week before i bought yamaha fz x.But app is properly not working.We have to open the app each time for connect with bike.It’s really difficult and i am not think this is not value for money.I asked details in showroom and they not consider our voice and they simply says, This are all yamaha server issues, We can’t do anything.After facing issues, I search with google and huge persons are facing same issues and they feel bad.

Enjoyed riding

1.0

I had owned yamaha fz fi v1 and enjoyed riding it.This fz-x is not on par with xsr 155.A worst attempt made by yamaha.I'm sorry to say that, Such a weird and dirty design.Not sure whose idea it was.People have eagerly been waiting for the classic retro style bikes like re 350, Honda cb 350 and yamaha rx100.Etc.At least we've been dreaming of xsr launching.However our hopes are utterly lost and disappointed.

Driver seat

4.2

I wanted a bike which cruises at 60 kph and this bike fits the bill. It can go beyond that speed but the engine feels stressed post 60 kph. Also around 4k to 5k rpm I feel vibrations at the junction of fuel tank and driver seat from 3rd gear onwards. The gear box is smooth, the controls are good. Most of all I like the braking, handling and ride comfort of this bike. Below 60 kph, it has good pickup when switching from one gear to another which also gives a good kick to the rider.Overall I would say there are other bikes around 50k cheaper than this which would probably give you the same levels of performance. I cant comment on the other things though. I would say this bike is overpriced at 1.5 lakh rupees on road, for the performance it offers.
