The BS6 Yamaha FZ 25 has been listed on
the company’s official website ahead of launch. Specs, features, and colours of
the upcoming 250 cc bike in India have been revealed. The more ecofriendly
Yamaha FZ 25 uses a 249 cc single-cylinder engine. It is an air-cooled mill
which comes with 2 valves and a SOHC. The fuel-injected powerplant complies
with the more stringent Bharat Stage 6 emission standards. It produces 20.8 PS
of power and 20.1 Nm of torque. It is linked to a 5-speed transmission.
To give the FZ 25 a more aggressive and
sporty look, Yamaha has implemented certain new features in the motorcycle. For
example, there is a new headlight assembly which incorporates a bi-function
type single headlamp that works for both high and low beam now. Also new is the
LED DRL that further enhances the bike’s styling.
The new BS6 Yamaha FZ 25 will be available
in two colour options - Metallic Black and Racing Blue. Both of them feature
black alloy wheels. Yamaha will also offer various optional accessories for its
new quarter-litre bike. These will include an engine guard, USB charger, bike
cover, seat cover and tank pad.
The BS6 FZ 25 appears to be a good rival
to the BS6 Suzuki Gixxer 250 and the Bajaj Dominar 250. Yamaha is expected to
launch the new FZ 25 as soon as the national lockdown is lifted.
