Recently Asked User Questions
- Both the bikes are good in their forte. In nearly every aspect, except maybe ergonomics and braking, the Yamaha FZS-FI v3.0 fails to impress. While its motor offers better fuel efficiency compared to the previous-gen model, it lacks grunt. If you have around Rs 1 lakh to invest, you're better off with say a TVS Apache RTR 160 4V, Bajaj Pulsar NS 160 or the Suzuki Gixxer. Whereas, the Yamaha MT 15 BS6 is more than just the R15 v3 sans fairing. The naked looks sharp is light and can be a hoot to commute. However, the compact riding posture might be a bit too tight for large riders. What is also disheartening is the poor switchgear and build quality as well as the lack of dual-channel ABS. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride for a better understanding of performance and comfort. Click on the link and select your desired city for dealership details.

(All prices, ex-showroom Delhi). In terms of features, the FZS-Fi comes with single-channel ABS as standard and chunky tires. The bike's negative LCD instrument console displays information like a fuel gauge, odometer, two trip meters, F trip, and a clock amongst others. There’s also an ECO indicator that guides riders with throttle modulation to help extract more fuel efficiency from the engine. Vintage Edition comes in a British Racing Green color with a tan brown single-piece seat. Which is an additional Rs 2,000 over the premium Darknight color. The FZ-S Fi gets the same set of features as the Darknight trim. It comes equipped with the Yamaha Connect X Bluetooth module that allows you to monitor your bike’s activities as well as remotely lock it. The 2021 FZS FI V3.0 was updated with the smartphone connectivity that came as standard across all the color variants.
