It has been a long time coming but yamaha has fimally updated the FZ motorcycle - lebeled the FZ version 2.0 . A HUGE chunk of the update is cosmetic . starting with the front headlight , which has been given an angular design.the most distinctive part of the new fz series is the redsigned rear tail-light and exhaust system.
looking at the news fz-Ss spec sheet we cant help but feel a bit disappointed . the engine has shrunk to 149cc ( from 153cc) and power has also taken dip by unit to 13hp and 12.8nm torque.so has yamaha turned its streefighter to a somber commuter bike? absolutely not.
yes, the specs do paint a grave picture, but ride the fz-s a few feet and the reservation about low power are left behind.the engine gets an all new fuel-injection system that replaces the conventional carbureted system.this makes the fzv2.0 a refined animal on the street.
The FZ-S is all about mid-range performance and this makes the FZ-S fun to ride in the city.
