How do you find the Yamaha FZS-FI V3.0 in wet conditions?

I travel to work year round, rain or shine. I've never had the FZ let me down in wet weather. It’s just a matter of changing your riding style and being more cautious.

It’s okay in the rain, but not great. If you’ve ridden bigger bikes with more electronic aids, you’ll notice the lack of traction control.

Mine I've kept stock, and I'm fine with it. I don't want to mess with that balance; Yamaha engineers know what they're doing.

Having a bike is half the fun of modding! I've put a K&N filter on it and got a performance exhaust and it's really made a difference in the throttle response.

The way to go are subtle mods. I have some LED upgrades and some frame sliders. It improves the look without going overboard, and makes things safer.

There's no point in modding for performance. The cost is minimal, and the gains are also minimal. If you want more power, just get a bigger bike.

I love customizing my rides. It's my FZ with a custom paint job and some ergonomic tweaks. It makes it feel like it's more 'mine' you know?

Stick to practical mods. Maybe a better seat, maybe some auxiliary lights for night riding. Anything beyond that is just money down the drain.

I modded mine, but mostly reverted changes. For me, the bike felt best in stock form.

It depends on your goal. If you’re wanting to stand out, then yeah, mod away. If performance is what you’re after, you won’t get the results you’re looking for on an FZ.

It's a great platform for mild customization, I think. It’s easy to make your own without going crazy. Just be aware of warranty and legality issues.

Modding is fine, but don’t forget about resale value. Keep all the stock parts so that you can return it to original condition if you ever want to sell.
Is the Yamaha FZS-FI V3.0 really underpowered for its class?
15 January 2025 08:18
Nah, it's not underpowered. It's a city riding machine. I’ve had mine for a year now and it still zips through traffic like a champ. If you're stuck in bumper to bumper, who needs more power?

Are you kidding me? It's totally underpowered! I rode one and it felt like I was riding a glorified scooter. Other brands will give you way more bang for your buck for the same price.

It's all about perspective, look. Yeah, if you're expecting a race machine, you're going to be disappointed. Yet it's a spot on daily commuter car, which is both reliable and good value.

I moved up from a scooter to the FZS FI V3.0 and I find it to be powerful enough. It might not be enough for experienced riders but it’s a solid starting point for newbies.

The thing is, Yamaha tuned it for fuel efficiency. You can’t have it all: Insane power, great mileage, and low price. Instead, they decided to concentrate on what's most important for most commuters.

I have ridden the Apache RTR 160 4V and FZ. The FZ is smoother, more refined, but the Apache definitely feels peppier. It's a trade-off, really.

Underpowered? Maybe on paper. In real world riding, it has enough grunt to keep up with traffic and do a little bit of touring. You just have to ride it.

I think people are just too caught up in numbers. On paper, the FZ might have less power, but it has a nice torque curve that makes it feel responsive where it counts – in the low and mid range.
