I personally dont own this machine but my roommate has this beast and as a roomie he shares his bike to me also and my personal experience is excellent.I have good experience of bike and touring .So I will tell you why its best in its segments.It has 149 cc engine with power of 9.7kw/8000rpm with the torque 12.8nm@6000rpm which gives you a smooth and powerful ride on city and highway roads.
You will find good pickup and shift power along with a good mileage of 53 kmpl which is constant on highway and 50kmpl on city road.its very necessary that a bike should maintain his mileage in any condition and this bike does what it says.I have seen many friends crying for bad mileage even after they keep their bike always maintained but this beast doesnt need much maintaince as this will heavily effect on your pocket if you are a student or have low income.
Everyone knows that Yamaha fz bike tyre have excellent grip on road.i personally have tested with some stoppie and stunt.Its good results during accidental brakes.The Yamaha fz handle is also famous for stunts because it has good balance.
The Yamaha engine is well knowed.One of my family friend shifted to another state and keep his bike in garage and use it after 2yrs.Trust me after charging the batteries engine didnt even pop up .It directly started with just a simple self start.
ITS REALLY COMFORTABLE AS I HAD TRAVELLED FROM DELHI TO MANLI AND DELHI TO RISHIKESH SEVERAL TIMES .THE SEATS ARE REALLY COMFORTABLE AS I HAVE COMPARED WITH OTHER BIKES WHILE TOURING TO LONG DISTANCEs
IF YOU TALK ABOUT STYLING AND LOOK .I PERSONALLY THINK ITS COOL.ITS HAS SOME LOOK OF SUPER BIKES AND BROAD TYRES MAKES IT MORE HOT.
SO IF YOU HAVE LIMITED MONEY AND WANTED TO HAVE LONGLASTING BIKE .THERES NO COMPARISION IN THIS RANGE.
