Yamaha SZ-X Disc

About
The Yamaha SZ-X Disc is a 150cc commuter motorcycle that was designed to balance style, comfort, and performance. It features a detuned version of the FZ16s 153cc engine, producing 12.1 PS of power, which is sufficient for daily commuting. The bike has a sporty yet comfortable riding position and good ride and handling balance, making it suitable for both city and highway rides. The design is compact and stylish, appealing to those who want a sleek look without compromising on comfort. However, the lack of a front disc brake in some variants and the reported issues with reliability and maintenance are key factors to consider when evaluating this bike. Overall, it is an underrated bike in India that offers a smooth and reliable ride, but potential buyers should be aware of the potential drawbacks.

USER OPINION

Our take on this /// Verdict
The Yamaha SZ-X Disc is a mixed bag when it comes to overall performance and user experience. On the positive side, it boasts a comfortable riding position and good handling balance, making it a decent choice for daily commutes. The engine, although detuned from the FZ16s 153cc version, still provides a smooth and reliable ride. However, some users have reported significant issues with reliability and maintenance, particularly with the clutch plates needing frequent replacements. The absence of a front disc brake in some variants is also a notable drawback. Despite its stylish and compact design, the inconsistent service experience and higher maintenance costs might deter some potential buyers.
Price
The price of the Yamaha SZ-X Disc in India, although it is no longer a new model, can be estimated based on its historical pricing. When it was launched, the ex-showroom price was around 60,000 to 70,000. However, the on-road price, including taxes, registration, and other costs, would have been closer to 75,000 to 85,000. Given its age and the fact that it is no longer in production, the current market price would likely be significantly lower if you are considering a used model. As an older model, its crucial to factor in the potential for higher maintenance costs and the availability of spare parts when making your decision.
Mileage
Tuesday, 19 November 2024 03:18 PM The mileage of the Yamaha SZ-X Disc varies widely depending on the source and riding conditions. Some users report an average mileage of around 55-60 kmpl on the highway and about 45-50 kmpl in city conditions. However, there are also reports of much lower mileage, around 20-25 kmpl, which could be due to specific issues with the bike. On average, you can expect a mileage of around 50 kmpl, which is decent for a 150cc commuter bike. This makes it a reasonable choice for those concerned about running costs, but its important to consider the overall reliability and maintenance needs.

SZR is my 3rd vehicle of this company bot not satisfied with any of the vehicle, now this vehicle giving 25 to 30 kmpl mileage which is too less. Recently I have changed the parts from the Yamaha showroom (Angul, Odisha) and all the time I go for the servicing to the showroom only and now they are refusing for the mileage test. My first vehicle (YBX-125) also didn't give satisfying mileage and after 6 years it not in the condition to use. If the company can't give good services then why would people go for this company's vehicles? If mileage will be good then only people will be benefited.

Best Features: Pickup is good

Pros: Ok with other features

Cons: Not satisfied of mileage (25-30)

It has a powerful engine and smooth ride quality. Before this one, I was using a Pulsar 150. When comparing both, Yamaha SZ-R is the best one in all aspects.

Best Bike for Commuting and Cruising. . . .

Premkumar - | 6 years ago

Hi, I am using YAMAHA SZR for the past 3 and half years, at first i use to get mileage of 40kmpl, after regular service i got 52kmpl if i ride @ 50kmph. Now I am using my bike as the regular commuting and weekly cruising purpose. Daily i use to commute 40kms. Now i use to come to my home town which is 165 kms from my workplace on my bike. For the past six days i travelled 850 kms on my bike such an amazing experience. While cruising i reached the top speed of 115kmph which gives good stability and control. Pick up is little bit lower than FZ thats it, throttle sounds good and engine smoothness is amazing. Kindly font expect pick up if the pillion weights more than 80kg.

Best Features: Engine Immobilizer, Aerodynamic design, Crystal clear headlamp and indicators, rider seating position and pillion seater has good comfort.

Pros: Sportive Design, Engine smoothness, Pickup, Braking & Handling

Cons: Fool rest could be kept little back, Lack of Digital Speedometer, mileage drops from 50-39 while cruising at 80 kmph

SZ-X is a Good Commuter

Sen | 8 years ago

I used this bike past 4 yrs, according to my experience, this is a good commuter for long ride. Value for money economically and mileage also OK for me. But, it needs more power after 70 kmph. Throttle response should improve because it's not a 100 cc machine. I like the design of this bike, especially the cowl, but if it comes with disc brakes it will get sportier looks.

Best Features: Tank capacity of 14 Lt, bright headlamps

Pros: Throttle response from 0 to 60 kmph, bike looks & bright headlamps

Cons: No disc brakes, taking too much time to achieve 70 to 100 kmph, suspension can improve with gas type shock absorbers

Hi,


This is vinod


Actually  I am planning to take SZ-X ... but I am feeling unhappy that this bike has all features in its class and good reputation too ... but doesn't have the Disc Brake....

By searching through net... I am feeling happy that you'll release the SZ X with disc brake...

I and my friends are waiting to buy that SZ-X disc bike.

I know it very easy to say and hard for you to launch in short time... but We hope that you'll release the SZ-X bike as soon as possible... if possible release before Diwali.


Thank you so much.
