It’s the Yamaha Fazer 250 that’s likely to arrive in the quarter-litre segment of the Indian market. The motorcycle was recently captured on camera during its test runs. The motorcycle, as seen in the spy images, is complete uncamouflaged, although it does not feature any graphics either.Similar to the 150cc model, this will too be a faired version of the FZ series. So apart from the new fascia, the Fazer 250 will share rest of the design with the FZ25. However, unlike the 150cc model, the quarter-litre version is seen with a full fairing. The photographer could not click a photograph of the front but, similar to the FZ25, the new Fazer 250 is also likely to carry a LED headlight.The technical specification are not likely to change from the FZ25 either although, with the added fairing, the Fazer 250 is likely to be heavier than the naked roadster. The motorcycle will be built around a Diamond frame. The new Fazer 250 will features an all digital, LCD instrument cluster which will include the speedometer, tachometer, odometer, fuel gauge, two trip meters, fuel reserve trip meter, instant fuel economy, average fuel economy and clock.As is the case with the 150cc models, the Fazer 250 will share its engine with the FZ25. So propelling duties would be provided by the same single cylinder 249cc air-cooled, 4-stroke, SOHC, 2-valve, fuel injected motor with oil cooler which is rated to deliver 20.9 PS of power @ 8,000 rpm and maximum torque of 20 Nm @ 6000 rpm and comes mated to a five-speed transmission.
The new Yamaha Fazer 250 is likely to carry a slightly premium price tag than the FZ25. The naked roadster retails for INR 119,500. We’d keep you posted with more details as and when they arrive. Meanwhile, let us know your views about the quarter-litre Fazer through the comments section below.

Spotted in Delhi on 24th May 2017.
Yamaha Fazer 250 was spotted in Delhi by an xBhpian. When will Yamaha be launching this bike in India? The bike looks production ready in these photos, but the company has not indicated any date yet.
The fairing part of the bike resembles the Fazer bodywork and other parts of the bike look same as FZ25 which was launched recently with the price tag of Rs 1,19,500/-. We had ridden the Yamaha FZ25 in Goa earlier this year.
The base of the FZ25 will be perfect for a faired version of the same. The bike was well received by the motorcyclists of the country and it makes sense that Yamaha would want to build on that. It is great to see Yamaha once again turning their focus to motorcycles after spending two years growing their sales in the scooter segment. We assume that the new Fazer 250 will share the same specifications as the Yamaha FZ25, based on the relationship between the FZs and Fazer (150cc). The FZ25 has a single cylinder 249cc air-cooled 4-stroke engine which produces 20.9 PS at 8000 rpm and maximum torque of 20 Nm at 6000 rpm.
Since the price tag of the FZ25 is 1.19 Lakh Ex-showroom, we hope that the Fazer price tag won't be higher than Rs 1.5 Lakh.
The Ex-Showroom price of 200-250cc faired bikes in India as follows,
Pulsar RS 200 - Rs 1,21,881/- (Ex-showroom Delhi
KTM RC 200 - Rs 1,72,370/- (Ex-showroom Delhi
Honda CBR 250 - Rs 1,71,646 (Ex-showroom Mumbai
Hero Karizma ZMR - Rs 1,07,880/- (Ex-showroom Delhi)
We eagerly await this bike being launched in India. It should be perfect for the touring community of the country.
