Yamaha FZ16 Features

Engine
Air-cooled, 4-stroke, single-cylinder 153cc engine

A newly designed 153cc air-cooled, 4-stroke, SOHC, single-cylinder, 2-valve engine with a max.output of 14 Ps and a max. torque of 14 N.m., characterized by its breathtaking pick up and featuring an electric starter.
Yamaha FZ16

Suspension
Monocross suspension adopted

A Monocross rear suspension unit provides 120 mm of wheel travel, while optimized oil and damping valve specs help ensure agile running performance and handling. It inhibits bottoming while riding with a tandem passenger as well as providing a very comfortable ride.
Yamaha FZ16

Muffler
Exhaust efficiency, sound and concentration of mass

To give a sense of volume to the machine, an external diameter of 35mm is adopted in a two-layer type exhaust to minimize the effect of heat on the pipe. The layout features a large-volume primary character on the underside of the crankcase. The muffler is an irregular shaped tapered type mid-ship muffler.
Yamaha FZ16

Rear tyre
India’s first “140/60-17” size radial tyre (rear)

The rear tyre is India’s first radial tyre with a 60% aspect ratio. Both the front and rear tyres on this model are tubeless type that are less susceptible to sudden flattening should the tyre be punctured.
Yamaha FZ16

Disc Brake
Large-diameter front disc brake adopted

At the front, a large Ø267mm disc brake is adopted. The two-pot caliper makes full use of the outer perimeter of the disc to provide strong stopping power. The optimized specs of the operational parts provide a high-level of balance, excellent initial braking performance and good operational touch.
Yamaha FZ16

Front Suspension
The inner tubes on the front fork are the first large Ø41mm units adopted on a motorcycle made in India and the stroke is a generous 130mm. With the front assembly dimensions, they provide good shock absorption. The good damping characteristics during acceleration and braking contribute to increasing stability.
Yamaha FZ16

Headlight
Multi-reflector headlight adopted

The bulb’s illumination and the type of light unit employed gives greater freedom of design. This creates an aggressive-looking front view and the transparent lens gives this unit a highly stylish image that accentuates the character of the model’s ride.
Yamaha FZ16

Fuel Tank
12-liter fuel tank with uniquely styled plastic resin cover

The steel fuel tank with a plastic resin outer cover takes advantage of the freedom of shaping that plastic provides, giving the tank cover a powerful shape with modulations suggestive of the muscular body of an athlete.
Yamaha FZ16

LCD meter
Full LCD meter

The meters on the FZ16 are installed in a Full Liquid Crystal Display. The speedometer, tachometer, trip meter, fuel gauge and other indicators are set in optimum position to keep the field of vision clear. Also, the engine starting signal is an example of the spirit of innovation.

Yamaha Motor India Limited is ready to launch Yamaha FZ-16 on Indian roads by mid September 2008! The bike has all the latest technology features that the customer craves for. The stylish yet innovative FZ-16 has macho and muscular looks redefining the 150cc bikes segment. The Yamaha FZ-16 is an urban-cool motorcycle built for great performance and easy-living functionality, because that’s the whole idea of a bike like this. It keeps it simple, with street-tough naked styling and super-civilized power delivery and a specially designed riding position that gives riders extra confidence at lower speeds. ------------- Shakira <a href="http://www.legalx.net" rel="dofollow" rel="nofollow">DUI</a>

I am atracted with yamaha fz16.I am ready to buy.One month back central govt anounced reduced the central excise duty.In Andhra pradesh all bikes dealer"s reduced their prices except yamaha group Tell me facts&reason

Ashley Fernandes said about 1 year ago:

Yes - It's the Lord of the Street... I bought this bike a month ago paying 73,500/- and have completed 1,000 Kms till date. It has finished its I Free Service [paid for oil, filter and oil ring] Plus Points: 1. Superb styling and great pick-up. 2. Excellent gear ratio for city riding. 3. Good mileage of 50 KMPL presently. 4. Comfortable seating for two. 5. Well designed headlights for brighter and broader light angle. Minus Points: 1. The horn mews like a pussycat and makes the "Lord of the street" look meek and mild in fornt of other bikes in its class. 2. The indicator rubber moulding are of poor quality they are already sagging during the first month causing front indicators to droop spoiling the front look - what can I expect later? 3. The rear brakes are not very effective and are equal to the 100 cc bikes available. Since this is a 153cc R&D should have concentrated better on the rear braking system - larger disc. 4. Larger turning radius creates need for extra space to turn in city areas - this should have been properly analysed before production of the bike. 5. Setting the bike on the centre stand is not an easy task as compared to all the other 150cc bikes in its class - the angle has to be claculated correctly due to the large wheel base of the rear tyre and ground clearance along with weight of the bike. Otherwise this is just another bike in the 150cc class.
