join yamaha fazer community

this is my first bike and given by my dad when i topped in my university.
its been around 8 months and you wont believe it my fazer is giving 45 kmpl and sometimes it amazes me with 50 even in the earlier months.

as a family with so many cars i was not very interested in bikes earlier. but after this machine was given to me i became struck with its appeal and performance.
where other bikes got stroked in this years torrential delhi rains. mine one just swimmed across all the hurdles.
and for long rides it is the best bike right now in the indian market. even u mentioned that in ure post. and regarding the fairings, if someone who ever tried to go for a longer ride with it can easily understand its necessity on a bike. fzs are totally different from fazer in many aspects. and aerodynamism is one of that.

Fazer has only Electric start. Gives only 30 km/litr, not even 35?

I have reached 126kmph on my fazer with a good mileage of 42kmpl!!!

even I was using the FZ-16 thread for all my FAZER questions :-)

**yamahafazer** · 08-17-2011, 03:04 PM

Struggles with load !!

My FAZER definitely struggles with load ,power is really a problem I guess,for example if a 70Kg and 80Kg person sit on this bike ,this struggles a lot !

Have you guys experienced the same?

**rakowli** · 12-14-2011, 12:46 PM

Hey do anybody knows how to change the Headlight setting of this bike?
Do we have to remove the fairing and then turn the screw or without removing the fairing we can adjust the beam. please upload with pictures if possible. Thank you in advance.

That's very true!

Nevertheless, although this "touring spirit" thing is no more than a commercial BS, the fairing does offer a very good protection that would not have expected from such a small one, hence increasing the long ride comfort.

Besides that, and although I also like the more "brutal" aspect of the naked FZ-16 and FZ-S, the Fazer got an elegance of its own. This is further enhanced by the "Midnight Special" decoration (mine is not a genuine one but a copy from pictures of the original stickers, and then specially made for me!)

Finally, as "Sky" mentions: besides the protection, it is obvious that the aerodynamics of the Fazer will be better than it's naked siblings, and, although not yet been able to compete, am sure that the top speed would be sensibly higher.

"... +Lot of money" said "Eliksir"??? Hey man: you have to pay for a pretty girl!

However, this thread should be moved in the FZ-16 ownership experience one (just to mock the "naked" owners

).

Yamaha Fazer 153cc

Hi,

My name is Francis and I ride a YAMAHA FAZER 153cc. The bike provides me with an awesome confort no matter what road I ride on. Moreover, it also provides me better control.

The only issue is while riding pillion, the pillion rider complains about issues with the seat.

Can anybody help me fix this issue with my bike, apart from a solution to ride single.

Thanks

Guys from Bangalore, if you are interested.

Yamaha Fazer 153cc

Hi Abhishek,

I have got the seat modified. I had to broaden it from both the sides which now provides extra comfort to the pillion rider.

Thanks for your reply.

Franko.

I RIDE SAFE..... I WEAR A HELMET......

Regarding the Fazer as a touring bike is infact in appropriate. The reason being that the bike struggles to attain any speeds beyond 80Kmph and gives a backpain to tall riders when rising for long. Another thing to consider is that, though the bike has a longer base than the FZ, it is still unstable while hard braking and tight cornering, it may be due to the MRF Revz, but we've experienced numerous falls on the bike, and one of the time while doing a panic brake, at the same time with my ZMA, our Fazers wheels locked and were smoking, where as the ZMA's wheels still had good traction, the point to be noted here is that the ZMA is also running on stock MRF's. The Fazers stock tyres are also prone to getting punctures a lot.

Now coming to the benefits, its one mean street bike, the acceleration note after 6k gives any rider a scare when being overtaken by the FAZER, its torquier and revs quicker than my bike and works well under tightly packed traffic conditions. Returns a mileage of 43Kmpl when ridden sedately.

Anyways ride safe, and its about time an independent topic was started for Fazer.
