Yamaha FZ8 Review

11 Sep, 2018 07:59 PM

Quick Review by Maxabout Team

The FZ8 is based on the aggressive and mass-forward concept. It supports a naked fairing on the front which gives it a sporty stance. The bike features a carefully placed handlebars and footrests, slim fuel tank and a comfortable split seat ergonomics. It uses the light and rigid aluminum delta frame from the R-series DNA which gives it a futuristic look. The new radical muffler design and the blackened out alloys enhances the side profile of FZ8. Overall, Yamaha FZ8 throws macho looks that turns heads. The FZ8 comes with a length of 2140 mm, width of 770 mm and a height of 1065 mm as it dimensions along with a weight of 211 Kg. It has a fuel tank capacity of 17-litres which makes it suitable for long runs.

The bike features a amber colored LCD instrument console that includes a speedometer, fuel gauge, tripmeter and a clock. The panel also bears a white base, analogue tachometer with a red colored illuminating needle. There are indicators for pass-light, step-up seat, stand alarm, low fuel, battery and oil. Yamaha FZ8 is expected to be powered by the 779cc, liquid-cooled, 4-stroke, DOHC engine that will generate a maximum power of 104.8 bhp at 10000 rpm and a maximum torque of 82 Nm at 8000 rpm. This forward-inclined parallel four cylinder engine would be mated to a constant mesh six speed transmission and a wet, multiple-disc coil spring clutch system. It will use the electronic fuel injection and TCI (digital) ignition system.

The FZ8 is expected to be fitted with 310 mm hydraulic dual disc brakes at the front and 267 mm hydraulic single disc brakes at the rear end. On the other hand, suspension duties would be handled by upside-down telescopic forks at the front while linked mono shock with spring preload adjustment at the back. There is a great fun to ride this sports bike. The extended wheelbase of 1460 mm offers you a safe and stable ride. On the other hand, the ground clearance of 140 mm makes it suitable for tough and rough conditions. The bike could have a tyre size of 120/70 ZR17 M/C at the front and 180/55 ZR17 M/C at the back. Yamaha FZ8 does not loose control even at higher speeds.

A damn good street fighter

The bike appeals to riders of all ages. Beginner-friendly bike. The power delivery doesn't scare you but has enough oomph. Capable to cruise at 100 kmph . You can roam in the city even at 5th gear. At around 4k rpm you can feel the torque rush. Very comfortable seat( both Rider and pillion ). Mileage is great for a 250cc (33 and 40kmpl at city and highway respectively) Although lightweight, it gives you a big bike feel due to the fuel tank. Instrument console could have been bigger but you will get used to it. Headlamp illumination is ok for city use although being an LED. Auxiliary lamps would help it for highway rides at night The suspension is set towards comfort side Tyres although wide enough, not recommended for hardcore cornering. Pricing is the BOMB here. It's cheaper than R15 and MT 15.

Best Features: Looks, Pricing

Pros: Toque rush , Mileage , Exhaust note

Reliability of a Japanese machine.

made by Yamaha. It's Japanese, end of the argument. Yes, there are other cool bikes in the price range. But This machine will keep running while other brands bikes are guaranteed to blow up at some point since that seems to be happening everywhere.

Best Features: Fat sexy tyres, Yamaha badging.

Pros: Well built quality & refined engine. Fat rear tyres

Cons: Boring instrument console.

Boycott Yamaha FZ25

sourav - | 2 years ago

Suddenly I noticed a review video on YouTube about headlight and instrument console. Yamaha shows that their focus is on money and performance. The instrument console is so odd that Hero Glamour's console is much better than this one.

Best Features: 46 teeth sprocket

Pros: looks, handling.

Cons: low hp, worst headlight, stupid instrument console

A Good Option, But strictly for Yamaha fans!

Naman Vashisht | 6 years ago

The Yamaha FZ25 is a very decent offering, a first of a kind in the segment. It is powered by a 249 cc engine which generates a maximum power of 20.69 bhp @ 8000 rpm and gives out a maximum torque of 20 Nm @ 6000 rpm. Also being priced at INR 1,19,500 ( ex-showroom Delhi ) it is a pretty affordable value for money option. Although the bike is no match for the performance of Benelli TNT 25 in the 250 cc segment, it costs 60K less then it's Benelli rival.Yamaha FZ25 is strictly for the fans of the brand and the followers of Yamaha FZ series. Other features such as LED headlamps and tail lamps add to the value of the bike. But I believe that the bike could have been made to look a little bulkier just like the classic FZ-16. All in all the bike does not disappoint either at this price.

Best Features: Digital Instrument Console, Oil cooled Fi Technology Engine, LED Headlamps

Pros: Pricing, Fi Technology, Digital Instrument Console, Mileage

Cons: Lack of an ABS, Less Than Bulky Looks, Performance not upto the mark
