Re: Yamaha to launch Fazer 250 in India by mid-2017

The new Yamaha Fazer 250 is likely to be priced higher than the FZ25 and is expected to be launched at around Rs 1.30 lakh, ex-showroom. The upcoming motorcycle is expected to be launched in the country around June, 2017.

Any idea about FZ 25 sales numbers?
