    Re: 2017 Yamaha Fazer 250 spotted testing in India for first time

    Yamaha just designed a fairing around existing FZ25. Horrendous. And, color combination is inspired IPL's RCB Team, red and gold.
    Just launching a product for sake of it. Since there is a naked, let us give one faired one too. And all this clearly shows what Yamaha thinks of Indian motorcycle enthusiasts.

        Beautiful aesthetics. As a potential sports tourer that design is absolutely gorgeous. Definitely gonna sell like hotcakes if the price difference isnt too much. However I did wish it had a better IC. Also I hope that front air intake is functional and not just a design element.

            +1. Even if it's real one, there is no need of air duct for an air cooled engine right? I understood that,"In an liquid-cooled engine the air duct might be placed so as to direct the air flow towards the radiator for effective cooling. Pls someone clarify this.

            For the acceleration and highway/openroad cruising speed which this fz25 possess ex:110-120 this bike doesn't need this full fairing right? A good quality aftermarket windscreen/visor is enough.

            The first thing came to my mind after seeing the above spyshots is these.

              Except for the fact that this bike as an Oil cooling radiator

              Full fairing helps significantly at higher speeds. There is a lot of aerodynamic witchcraft involved. And if this bikes fairing model is anything like what my GSX150F has, then we are talking about less weight on the Steering bar.

                It looks butt ugly. Hopefully a different colour scheme will look better.

                  Re: Yamaha Fazer 250 SPOTTED...!!!

                  Is it possible this is a new type of camoflauge? The red full panels instead of the white and black pattern design normally used for camo...

                    Normally camouflage will not have model name embossed on it. This is not camouflaged, seems like.

                      In my opinion, this looks ugly. Just my opinion.

                        Looks like the 500cc Yamaha scooter from the front. The R15 looks better 😒

                          So, no ABS? Again?

                              NO offence to anyone.... I completely hate this design and it looks like a scooter(Dio or ray) headlight shifted to top.

                              Old Fazer looks better than this.

                                I second this , Exactly what i thought seeing the fairing. Here is another set of images of the Fazer 25 from Rushlane
                                Yamaha Fazer 25 is FZ25's Fully Fairing variant. It has been in India. Price starts from 1.28 lakh. Two colour options are on offer.

                                A bike without ABS again!! Not Fair Yamaha.
