Hi its me shailesh and I’ll be telling you my experience and all you need to know about yamaha fazer 25.
India is country where people mainly like faired bike well keeping that philosophy in mind yamaha launched fazer 25 better than ever. Fazer is basically faired version of yamaha’s fz 25. Yamaha has done great job in making the machine rider friendly as you might know that fz 25 have a bit of a clinking affect in the gear shifting which here is tweaked. The engine here is same as of fz 25 producing 20.9ps of power at 8000rpm and 20nm of torque at 6000rpm.
Addition of the faring makes the highway ride less tiring since it minimize the wind blast offer to the rider which means you can cover lot more distance on this bike as compared to its naked sibling. Making no mistake company claims the fuel efficiency of about 43kmpl whch happens to be not far from which I experienced . I found it to be 39kmpl riding normally not even making effort to get more millage.
Talking about the comfort this bike is really good and you can ride all day long without messing with your back even the pillion seat is remarkably comfortable giving rarely any chances for your partner to complain. On the other hand suspension at the front is soft and stiff that back to get over the potholes you encounter while tires provide nice grip even when meeting the odds. Heating issue is fixed from past experience making it more reliable than before.
Well that was a good part the fazer really puts down on breaking . Just like the fz, fazer do not put the instant bite under hard breaking and due to the absence of abs you could end up locking your rear wheel offen . Addition of the fairing may have added a weight and improved its cornering capability but absence of cornering clearances is a bit issue . My last bad point would be an absence of a 6th gear which would have offered more cruising speed.
Finally this all gets to the last point that is the looks. Lot of people might be fond of fully faired bike but here fazer might confuse you . No doubt it looks better in flesh than in picture but still Yamaha could have made it more appealing. So its me shailesh sighing off I hope my review has helped you.
