YAMAHA FAZER-250

Yamaha India came up with the FZ25streetnaked motorcycle earlier this year. The FZ25 is doing fairly well on the sales charts and now, the manufacturer is close to launching the Fazer 250 full fairing model based on the FZ25. The Yamaha Fazer 250 (Fazer 25) will be to the FZ25 what the Fazer (150cc) is to the FZ16. The upcoming Yamaha motorcycle has been spied completely undisguised and from the looks of it, the manufacturer seems to be ready to launch the new motorcycle. Read on for details on the Yamaha Fazer 250 Launch date, Price in India, Specifications and 
Mileage.

The latest spy images go on to reveal that the Yamaha Fazer 250 will offer ergonomics befitting of a sportstourer. The handlebar position, the footped mounts, the seat – everything hints at a fairly relaxed riding posture. Also, the new fairing should help the Fazer 25 tackle high speed wind blasts. In terms of dimensions, the new bike is definitely larger than the already brawny Fazer 150cc. Other than a full-fairing and dual-tone paint schemes, the new Yamaha looks almost completely like the FZ25. The side panels, the fuel-tank, the end-can – everything comes from the FZ25. Even the headlamp seems to be the same and the new fairing simply goes on to wrap itself around the existing headlamp cluster.


The new Fazer 250 shares its engine with its streetnaked sibling. This means that powering the motorcycle will be a 249cc, single-cylinder, fuel-injected engine that comes mated to a five-speed Manual Transmission. Exact specifications aren’t clear at the moment but Yamaha just might have tweaked the engine to suit the ‘sportstourer’ format. For the FZ25, this motor offers a maximum power of 20.6 BHP at 8,000 RPM and a peak torque of 20 Nm at 6,000 RPM. Much like the FZ25, even the new Fazer 25 is built around a diamond frame chassis. The new bike gets the same brakes that do duty on the streetnaked version. It’s not sure if Yamaha India would offer ABS even as an option. The test mule that has been caught testing doesn’t seem to have ABS. Even the suspension comes from the FZ25, which means you get telescopic forks upfront and a monoshock at the rear. Thanks to the addition of a new fairing, and the metal sub-frame for mounting purposes, the the new model is likely to weigh slightly more than the FZ25’s 148 KGs.




Yamaha Fazer 250 (Fazer 25) Price in India 

Minimum - Rs 1.25 lakh
Maximum - Rs 1.32 lakh

The Yamaha FZ25 surprised everyone with a very competitive sticker price of just Rs 1.19 lakh (ex-showroom). Hence, it should be safe to hope that even the Fazer 250 won’t have an exorbitant price tag. We’re hoping an increment of up to Rs 13,000, which means the Fazer 25 should cost no more than Rs 1.32 lakh (ex-showroom). At this price point, the Bajaj Pulsar RS200 and the Fazer 25 will be at loggerheads. However, the upcoming Yamaha will be still out of the sportier KTM RC200’s territory. With the Honda CBR250R going out of production, we can surely do with a comfortable entry-level sportstourer that’s high on refinement and offers a comfortable riding posture.

Yamaha Fazer 250 [Fazer 25] Launch Date

Launch Date [Expected] - October 2017

While Yamaha India is yet to make an official announcement regarding the launch date of the Fazer 250, it seems like the new model will foray into the ever-growing Indian motorcycle market in October 2017. The festive period launch should help the Fazer 25 benefit from the surge in bike sales during the auspicious time period. Currently, the bike seems to be in the final stages of testing. You can safely expect us to update you with more information regarding the launch date as soon as Yamaha India makes an official announcement regarding the same.

The Fazer 250cc version will share its 249cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled fuel-injected engine with the FZ25. While we’re hopeful that Yamaha would re-tune the engine to suit the sportstourer format, there are rather slim chances of a significant change in the specifications. Currently, for the FZ25, this motor outputs a max. power of 20.9 PS @ 8000 RPM and a peak torque of 20 Nm @ 6000 RPM. The engine comes mated to a 5-speed transmission.
Almost all of the mechanical hardware comes from the FZ25. The Fazer 250 gets telescopic shock absorbers at front and a monoshock at the rear. Even the tyres come from the streetnaked sibling. It’s not for sure at the moment but Yamaha might end up offering ABS, at least as an option. That said, the test bike that you seen in the images on this page doesn’t seem to have ABS.


Highlights of this bike’s design include,

  • Semi faired look 
  • LED Headlamps 
  • Chiselled Fuel Tank 
  • LED taillight
