  • Fazer or R15 2.0

    Really Confused as to which bike I should get .

    Fazer or the R15 v2.0

    I Like The Fazer because of the Semi-Faired look. But Most of my Friends advised me to either get the R15 v2.0 or the FZ.

    I'd rather get a Fazer for a FZ .

    Seating position kinda matters to me. In that aspect, Fazer is personally more comfortable for me.

    Power doesn't really matter to me much since I'm not a ripper. City Commuter.
    Would be riding about only 50-60 kms a week .

    and Yes, I'd only Prefer Yamaha.

    Hoping to get some valuable inputs from you all ! Please Help.

      I would have suggested fz as it is great for city riding but since u like it u should Go for the fazer it is literally the same as fz just wid a half fairing and it suits your need better, dont listen to what your friends say.

          if power doesnt matter, then go with fazer as your mind says....

          but in city riding, fazer's rvm is wider than its handle bar, so it will be difficult to flick through traffic...

          IMO fazer/fz has very smooth engine... you can go with it...

              if you have the moolah go r15 way.

              with in city riding condition i would not prefer fazer simply for the fairing resulting in less flickability.both have almost same riding position with fazer being a little more relaxed.
              fz-fazer doesn't have much power in store,anyways if you like fairing go fazer way.

              p.s.=if you were not inclined towards yamaha i would have suggested much more potent vfm rtr.
              and the question remains why do i race?
              every finishing line is the begining of a new race.

                        Fazer is just a semi faired FZ with a little more base. And its not a tourer, even though Yammie says so. My friend owns a Fazer and I'd have to say, its a pretty swell ride when it comes to traffic maneuverability and the balanced torque along with the unique grunt after 6k's definitely a Plus point, but if its riding comfort you want then look no more go for the ZMA.

                        R15, not sure about V2.0, but the original ones were magic, they lack low end torque, but the high end's amazing. And it has the same sporty exhaust note after 7k rpm. And I believe its the best below 200's performance bike in India.
