Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Which bike to buy, Yamaha FZ-FI V3 or Yamaha FZ-X?
  • Yamaha FZ-FI V3 is a big bike with style, features, smooth engine. While its motor offers better fuel efficiency, it lacks grunt. The Yamaha FZ-X, on the other hand, is a great commuter thanks to its easy-going ergonomics and suspension. So, if you are on a hunt for a bike that stands out in the general crop of commuters in the segment, the Yamaha FZ-X is the one for you. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.
Q. Which bike is better in terms of performance and comfort journey and mileage purpose comparing between Xtreme 160R, XBlade, Hornet 2.0 and FZ-Fi?
  • As per your requirements, you may go for Hero Xtreme 160R. The Xtreme 160R is the most exciting motorcycle to come out of the stables of Hero MotoCorp in the recent past. It has the styling, performance, and dynamics to take on the competition. It is one of the most affordable bikes in this class. It makes for a good purchase if you are in the market for a no-nonsense daily commuter with slightly sporty intentions. Plus it looks good, is very comfy and handles everything that Indian roads could throw at it with grace. Do take a test ride in order to get better clarity. Check out authorised dealership details.
Q. Want to buy a bike, but getting confused between Yamaha FZ V3(150 cc) and Honda Unicorn 160 cc. Please help me with some helpful insights on this.
  • I don't know otp number
  • Dear Zigwheels team, The comparison made on both the bikes are very well, but after-sales service on Yamaha FZ is more and we need to depend on the Yamaha service center all the time. Since the ECU kit included local mechanics will not be able to perform the service. Correct me if I'm wrong.
  • Selecting between the Yamaha FZ-FI V3 and Honda Unicorn would depend on certain factors such as your budget, preference of the segment, features required, ride quality, etc. Honda Unicorn comes equipped with a larger 163cc fuel-injected, air-cooled engine produces 12.92PS and 14Nm. The bike features a long comfortable seat, good ground clearance and a refined engine, however, the Japanese brand has made no effort to modernize the Unicorn BS6 as it misses out on LED headlight or even a ACG starter as seen on the Honda Shine. On the other hand, the FZ-FI V3 is powered by a fuel-injected 149cc 2-valve single-cylinder engine. Revision to the engine has seen a power drop from 13.2PS to 12.4PS while the torque has been bumped up by 0.8Nm to 13.6Nm. The FZ still holds a strong position in the brand’s lineup and makes a strong case with its comfortable riding position and good handling traits. The bike comes equipped with modern day features like a smart-looking LED headlight and negative LCD fully-digital instrument cluster. For a better understanding of compatibility and riding comfort, we would suggest you to take a test ride. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership.
