All New Yamaha FZS - FI 2014 First Impression
" The ultimate degree of
perfection means even the slightest feature has not been overlooked "
This is what Yamaha says about
the new Yamaha FZS-FI and they have stood by their words and loaded the FZS
with eye catching features and performance upgrades.
To start with, Yamaha has
replaced the digital tacho console with complete LCD which looks simply
outstanding. The exhaust silencer has got a new design and is small in size but
very very attractive. Headlight is re-designed to meet the machoness of the
updated structure of this bike. Tail lamp which was sitting low on previous
version has got new position and it is quite bright than the old one. Seats are
split into two parts which should provide comfortable riding experience. Grab
rails are split just like all others manufacturers are doing these days. Shock
absorbers remain unchanged.
Coming to the engine, the new
FZS will provide lesser power as compared to old one, 0.9PS less to be
precise. Also the torque has been reduced by 0.8Nm. Does it mean that this version
won't be as zippy as the old one??? Probably, but Yamaha has compensated
this loss by reducing the kerb weight of bike by 3 kgs.

Finally the big change, Fuel
Injection, Yamaha promises the FI will boost up the fuel economy by 14%
compared to the outgoing FZS. This will certainly heat up the 150cc segment
market with other manufacturers launching similar fuel efficient
variants. Yamaha has almost tried to cover every possible thing to make this
bike a best seller and with that price tag the new FZS-FI is all set to intensify the 150 cc segment.
