Yamaha Fazer review

BIKE India has carried a review of the new Yamaha Fazer.
Here is what they have to say...




The new Yamaha Fazer is available in four colours: Electric Blue, Midnight Black, Lava Red and Flaming Orange and is priced at an ex-showroom price of Rs 72,000. The bike might seem expensive for a 150cc machine but the company is betting heavily on it and is pushing the model aggressively with their new ‘touring spirit’ campaign. We would have loved to judge the bike over a weekend ride but time constraints forced us to cut down our plans to a small evening stint. Nevertheless, the first impression seems positive.
