Yamaha Fazer 250cc Review
Yamaha Motors had us flummoxed for some time now. While most manufacturers have been churning out model after model, Yamaha did not seem to be making any significant move. Until now. Yamaha Fazer 250cc, which was unveiled at the Auto Expo, is to get an early July launch. This is one gutsy move from the company for despite the Libero not receiving much applause for its futuristic styling, they have sculpted the even more adventurous looking Fazer. This bike makes no bones about shrieking a presence. Internationally, this particular insect-like styling trend is doing the rounds and that’s just where the goggle-eyed snout of the Fazer comes from.
Yamaha Fazer 250cc is possibly ahead of its day in the nascent motorcycle market, though full marks are due to YMI for bringing modern trends. The Fazer is surely not a design every one of us will swoon over but it’s best left described as distinctive. Attention to detail and fit-finish, however; should be evident even to the blind and is stunning, with any amount of praise to these being an understatement. The twin-head light ‘fly’-screen sticking out in front is unique with more than a semblance to that particular insect. There’s an aluminium triple-clamp and twin-pod instrumentation housing a rev-gauge, speedometer and all the usual idiot lights.
