      Lol it didn't even start till 1 minute in, the narration at the start had out of sync audio. The weird colour changing effect looks cringy and the information density of the video is too low because of the dialogue and stuff. It's good to experiment but this is not the way to do it.

      I agree with you, fellow owner. As the bike is not a performance or race machine, but a higher end commuter/ mid range cruiser in our country. Reviews compare this machine with top performance machine but they should also see the price and target of the product as well.

    @flameonfzn 6 ปีที่แล้ว +24

    I own the fz25 and have done 4000kms. I am more interested in touring than city rides, just two days back i did a 700km journey on this bike and let me tell you guys.. This bike is nothing short of spectacular. I was continuously riding at 105-116 kmph and as it started raining i wanted to get home fast while on the way back i rode for 3hrs straight, nothing happened.. The bike didn't feel like it was out of breath or anything. The mileage dropped, it gave me 30kmph while usually it gives me 35. The only thing i noticed is that as i was driving at 116kmph and because of the rains the road was completely drenched, the bike's rear tire slipped a little when i was cornering, i didn't took a sharp corner at more than 100kmph after that. The bike didn't heat, didn't stall, didn't look tired at all, seat is plenty comfortable. The only cons are the missing sixth gear, the missing abs and the headlight which doesn't go to a long distance. Personally i feel this bike is spectacular.

  • @KrasivyyCreations
    @KrasivyyCreations 6 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    I own FZ25 and done with close to 5000kms. Bed ridden now, since met with an accident on 11th Nov.
    Cons: 1.Tire profile.
    2. Poor head lamp for city and highway as well.
    3. ABS should have been a boon and life saver but then still the brake is good. Depends on individual how one handles it.
    4. Horn is poor.
    5. Lack of 6th gear and an
    odd sound between 4 to 5k rpm in top gear (60 to 70kmph)
    6. Stiffer seats. Got it customised.
    7. Changed rear view mirrors to that of TB350 for better visibility.
    Pros: 1. Super built quality
    2. Cheap and easily available parts
    3. Super throttle response.
    4. Easy on pocket in maintenance and mileage. Got upto 40kmph riding in Mumbai.

  • @PrasadChakradeo
    @PrasadChakradeo 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Been riding the FZ 25 since last 6 months and I agree with all the points mentioned!
    Lack of 6th gear and the LED headlamps are the only downsides to this bike I feel.
    However it is a pure joy to ride this bike on highways and in city!

  • @deepakkm8534
    @deepakkm8534 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The questions were answered in a subtle manner in the video. Carefully laid out through the length of it. Many would like it to be short and in your face, but that aint the PD way. I appreciate PD for keeping their signature style intact even with the 150-250cc segment. Cheers.

    • @chiragsoi8116
      @chiragsoi8116 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      samrat ghoshal ABS is necessary but will take price up ,then it won't be competitive enough as it will be in competition to Dominar ,which is 400cc ,better powered ,with ABS Option and better brakes. So keeping price in mind ABS is not given.

    • @chiragsoi8116
      @chiragsoi8116 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      chitz bhardwaj Yes i agree , but these bikes are mass produced and optional Abs variant would be a bit expensive and not many would buy a bike just for ABS at 150-160000 . But i agree with u

    @VARUNWITHSHARMA 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It's a no-nonsense, mature bike.
    I have done 16k on my fz25 in less than an year. It's going fabulous, never felt the need of ABS.
    6th gear, slipper clutch, powerful headlights & upside down front forks would have added to its qualities.But, every such think cost.
    I am more than satisfied with the well balanced beautiful product by Yamaha.
    Only complaint is about the rusting on exhaust pipe and catalytic converter.

  • @sushantmahale1319
    @sushantmahale1319 6 ปีที่แล้ว +40

    Machines r getting bigger capacity and still no signs of ABS
    Running these on bullshit and chaotic indian roads is v v risky proposition!
    But who cares , its india man !
    Yahan kitna deti is the most imp criterial before finalising the product !
    P.s.
    Why is it so hard for government to make abs and airbags compulsory for manufacturers!

    • @kaushalpanchal3226

    • @ketankadam5669
      @ketankadam5669 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Well Yamaha clearly said they wont put ABS on the FZ 25 until it was made compulsory by 2018. Which doesn't make sense, also show its lethargic attitude towards india and its market. They are clearly not very concerned about the riders safety.

    • @TheWAP5
      @TheWAP5 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      ABS is good to have feature but do you think that most accidents happen due to lack of ABS in bikes? No! Accidents in India happens due to poor driving/riding etiquette. Tum ABS ki baat karte ho aur yahan log helmet tak nahi pehne. Technology can save lives but usse pehle apne basics clear hone zaruri hai. Warna koi technology kisi kaam ki nahi. Airbag will not save you if you are not wearing seat belts.

    Honest review.. Im a fz25 rider and I like the bike very much. It will beat all other bikes in this category in the city traffic. Like u said in the video lack of 6th gear is one major point. Hope Yamaha will take all these into consideration in their next fz series

  • @moharanabhabatosh2979
    @moharanabhabatosh2979 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    If someone wants to go for this bike then just go through the issues I am facing in daily basis. It's better to know about the Cons of the bike.
    * U have to rev it a little to keep the engine running in Red light also in high traffic u have to keep the gear in 2nd with some revs otherwise engine get killed ( happening with 3-4 people whom I met in service centre and as per them it's bike issue they can't fix this).
    *. The pillion seat is very Hard and not comfortable to sit for more than 30km.
    *. Rider sit is ok ok , u can ride for long time but it's not that comfortable.
    * Tyre hugger is of no use as bike gets too dirty in rain.
    *Mirrors are just manageable.
    *Even after 6k km gear box is still very hard.
    * Area covered by headlight is just ok. If you are in Highway then u can't go beyond 60 in night due to focus area of headlight .
    * Bike get some vibration in footpeg above 85 and nearly at 100 u can feel in both handlebar and footpeg.

    There will be allways a differnce btween a yamaha ,honda and indian brands i have owned a re bullet and have driven ktms pulsars but the refinement and usability of these bikes are much superior than others and i am now owning a fz -25 and have done more than 2000km and i am very happy with the bike and its refinement 👌🏻

      Hey Shadab! What is your fondest memory of the FZ?

    • @josephf3648
      @josephf3648 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Shadab. How long will it take for the bike to become smooth. For now I have completed 500 Km and I can feel a lot of small vibes at around 4k rpm itself. I haven't taken it above 4.5k till now. Gears are hopeless and will have to wait till first service apparently. People keep saying the engine and gear becomes smoother with time but mine seems to be becoming more rough :( . So did you experience any vibes in the initial days or was it smooth right from start?. Just want to confirm if I got a faulty bike.

    • @shadabali6627
      @shadabali6627 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      PowerDrift everything i came from the background of royal enfield you know what i mean , This bike is not as fast as a duke 250 but as cheaper by around 50k and giving somehow similar perfomance as a complete pakage it makes more sense to me that includes mintance cost ,reliabilty and mileage , luv the fz its overall a good package

    • @shadabali6627
      @shadabali6627 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Joseph N. Francis yes in starting the gears feel tight and rough but when you will ride around 3k km it will become smooth and the vibes and engine quality will also become smooth

    By the way Yamaha did this bike, I can say that they created this bike for their existing FZ16, FZs and FZ 2.0 customers who are looking for an upgrade (who are brand loyal). If Yamaha wanted to haul ass of other manufacturers in the quarter litre naked segment they'd just dropped the MT-25 as the FZ25 here with it's LC parallel twin. People who know the technical aspects and the logical market needs will understand this! Peace☮ #alwaysyamaha #revsyourheart💓

  • @saikatdas9122
    @saikatdas9122 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    One thing I must say as an R15V2 owner, FZ25 is way more torquey in the lower midrange that it can put a tough 0-100 battle with Duke 250, but without having a 6th gear it seems strained after crossing 110. The LEDs need two additional auxiliary LED setup for better visibility in highways.
    To the Yamaha Haters (NS200, RS200, Duke 200 & RTR200), ride it once, then feel free to comment what is good and what is bad. Most Yamaha bikes don't match the spec-sheet with the Performance they provide, rather they overwhelm riders by their performance as they had been doing so far from the past.
    Nice video #pdarmy.

    The engine is not that smooth. I am getting tappet noise once the engine heats up and the service centre guys say that this is normal with this engine and nothing can be done about it. I had a hard choice between Yamaha and Dominar, chose Yamaha for it's refined engine but I am disappointed.

    • @ashwinkumar5065

  • @thethrottlehead502
    @thethrottlehead502 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yamaha has played quite safe with the Fz25. It's a very sensible deal if you prefer city usage but definitely leaves a lot to desire on the open roads. I think Yamaha was crystal clear about the audience they intended to target when they planned the bike and going by the sales figures, they are rocking it at the moment

  • @vinitghosal4611
    @vinitghosal4611 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    My Review for this bike.
    Ride quality decent
    Good mileage
    Engine refinement the best
    No vibrations
    Top speed 145kmph personaly experience by 20+ riders.
    Doesnt heats up
    You wont need the 6th gear u see the torque here is 20nm which more than enough to make u fly the weight of the bike plays a major role here
    Gears smooths out with use and time
    Brake are decent Abs should have be offered
    14ltr tank biggest in class
    Wide wheels great road stability and grip
    Headlights r weak
    Atlast, this is a very practical and all rounder kind of bike with 2 downpoints (as far as i have observed) it gives u everything with quality that is the most imp thing and thats where Bajaj lacks the quality of the product is necessary bcoz u have to live with it for next 4-5 yrs minimum and pulsars tends to lose its quality by the end of 1.5 years i have experienced with Ns n rs both
    This is more for a mature and practical and all rounder person ✌️😊❤

    I'll take the NS200 anyday.
    Abs.
    Cheaper bike and maintenance.
    Cruising on the 6th long range gear.
    Liquid cooling.
    The FZ makes sense only in the city but then why would anyone get a 250cc only for the city ?
    Someone tell Yamaha they were never a budget brand.. Don't try to be one... You've already got it wrong once with the FZ v 2.0 . The grunt of the original FZ 16 lost for better fuel efficiency. Poor vision by Yamaha.

      @vinitghosal4611 6 ปีที่แล้ว +16

      Cheap bike thats y it has a very less life time.
      U should take it to the highway for experiencing what is smoothness what is refinement
      Liquid cooling not needed because engine doesnt requires it

    • @JayanandSupali
      @JayanandSupali 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      mojo jojo totally agree. Just put down a comment stating the very same thing. That ke being a 2009 FZ 16 owner, I would rather get a 200 NS then this bike. 200 NS feels more of an upgrade.

    • @mojomasushi
      @mojomasushi 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Vinit Ghosal by cheap I meant cheaply priced and cheaply maintained. Yes in the past Bajaj had quality issues but not anymore with the new bikes... More so 200NS is a KTM engine bettered by Bajaj for Indian conditions... Also quality depends on usage. Yes liquid cooling is not required and FZ 25 is an awesome bike but not a well rounded package like NS. FZ hands down best for city only.

  • @varaj94
    @varaj94 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    On mid range the engine torque and sound is awesome.another thing I felt that in city ride , I had pain in my left hand .one of the worst thing is brake absence of abs , everyone touches the heaven for one second.on highway at night above 60 km , the vision is very low on dark roads . Other than that same as the review.

  • @JayanandSupali
    @JayanandSupali 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    I own a 2009 FZ 16 and it's been such a pleasant joyful journey. It's been one of the most reliable bike I have had till date. It still starts up at the 1st press of the starter button. But for me the FZ 25 just doesn't seem like a upgrade from where I am with my current bike. FZ 25 seems to just have a larger engine and a LED lamp. And I know for a fact that the LED lamp absolutely sucks. Even my FZ 16 lamp beats it for the spread on the road. The fuel average seems to be in the same ball park on both bikes. I would rather go for 200NS then this. It seems a worthy upgrade for city duties and an odd weekend tours.
    PS - so totally loved the review. Especially the way it was shot n made. Keep such amazing stuff coming. You people are getting better with every new video.

I am not sure whether only i face this problem or its common with the bike.

    @chiragsoi8116 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The only Problem with FZ25 is the 5Speed Gearbox according to me. You don't have that cruising gear on highway ,which makes it a bit unstable at 5th gear due to a incremental deceleration. A 6 Speed Gearbox and 300mm disc at front would make it best buy for price.

    Yeah when we compare the fz25 with the cc , i would definately take the duke 250 instead of this and when it comes to price i will go for the rs200 (abs variant) because the rs has a higher top speed than the fz25 even though torque is high on the fz25 the rs would be my take !!

    Nicely made vid.. trying to cover all the points in a more fun n slightly dramatic way. Like how you would like to tell about your new bike to others... The plus n minuses about the bike. It's different

    On paper it looks underpowered but it's actually really good in city as well as on highways. Of course you do miss 6th gear, and it is slightly on the expensive side,but it's a fantastic machine.Good average,punchy and refined engine make it an allrounder on my opinion
    PS: just my thoughts after owning this bike for about 2 months

    This looks so much better than the current fz 25 from the front..Just personal opinion.
