Re: Yamaha FZ 25 Owners Reviews and Experiences

Thanks you are right, just checked again by kept kill switch on and it sounded again, i love this sound, is there any harm doing so? When kill switch off means to turn engine off its not making that sound. Dont know why that time bike dont need fi sound. Or may be when we start it starts together and we cant hear it due to engine noise.

Re: Yamaha FZ 25 Owners Reviews and Experiences

I don't think there's any harm.....but it sounds only when your kill switch is on and then turn the key on..

Re: Yamaha FZ 25 Owners Reviews and Experiences

This is possible...

Re: Yamaha FZ 25 Owners Reviews and Experiences

Ride the brakes, I mean mildly hold the brakes for few Kms and ride slowly.

Hi,

Am new to xbhp. I am considering buying a fazer 25/ fz 25. I would like to know which dealership in mumbai would you recommend.

Also any feedback on the performance on the bike from owners in mumbai?

Thanks

Re: Yamaha FZ 25 Owners Reviews and Experiences

Kamala Yamaha.

This entire thread is about the performance of the fz25. Skim through a few pages, you'll realise the good and bad points. Would take too long for someone to summarize everything as many are new owners including myself while some have owned it much longer.

The bike has a very pronounced character and it appears to evolve with age so some issues remain, while some owners say many issues go away.

A few of mine ..
Some quick positives:
1. Forgiving and neutral behaviour
2. Torquey motor and good range of usable power
3. Decent ride height should suit most riders with varying body structures and height.
4. Good fuel efficiency for a 250cc
5. Quite nimble in traffic and definitely super cushioned ride with its suspension and tyre combination
6. Lovely bassy exhaust

Negatives:
1. Not as refined a motor as one would expect especially the tappet sound taking away from the overall experience.
2. Decent LED headlight. Adequate for city.. not for highways
3. Weak stock horn
4. Buggy instrument cluster on some
5. Tight clunky gearshifter on some
6. Not the best rear view mirrors
7. No ABS // some find the braking to be less than they'd like ESP the rear. I find the rear to be ok.. can lock up but doesn't kick out from under you as much as I've experienced on pulsars. The front discs are pretty sharp.

I am one with you.

Re: Yamaha FZ 25 Owners Reviews and Experiences

Hey Guys, Did anyone from Chennai get OE accessories - engine guard,skid plate etc. My dealer doesn't have and I checked with one more and they don't have either. Both claim that the part numbers released by Yamaha are not showing in their systems.

Re: Yamaha FZ 25 Owners Reviews and Experiences

Are there any owners from Cochin here?. How good is the service center out here?. After coming down to cochin this has become my main criteria for choosing between this and the RTR 200. Any suggestions would help as I have to book ASAP.

Re: Yamaha FZ 25 Owners Reviews and Experiences

I got skid plate from Shanthi motors Pallikaranai.. Engine guard i didn't check if they have

Re: Yamaha FZ 25 Owners Reviews and Experiences

Thanks will check with them.

Re: Yamaha FZ 25 Owners Reviews and Experiences

Which color of Rim Sticker would suit for Blue FZ25 (Reflecting ones)?

Re: Yamaha FZ 25 Owners Reviews and Experiences

I'd say green

Re: Yamaha FZ 25 Owners Reviews and Experiences

Cyber-blue

Re: Yamaha FZ 25 Owners Reviews and Experiences

Green and Blue, I really don't find it matching. (No offence).

Might give it try then.
