Design
When it comes to the design, there's no notable difference with the current motorcycle. The bike features a similar bulky design with the LED headlamp at the front. Moving forward, it flaunts a big muscular fuel accompanied by the same scooped seat. The rear end holds a chopped off exhaust along with small, neatly integrated LED taillamp. While Yamaha claims that the handlebar position has been optimised for greater comfort on long rides, and the positioning of the switches has been adjusted for better accessibility. Moreover, it comes with two colour options: Racing Blue and Cyan Metallic Grey.
Features
Coming to the features, it boasts a 4.2-inch full-colour TFT instrument cluster with smartphone connectivity. While some of the additional features include turn-by-turn navigation, call and SMS alerts. This bike also features a Stop & Start System (SSS), and it provides quieter starts and battery-assisted acceleration. Coming to the safety end, it offers single channel ABS along with dual disc brakes.
Powertrain & Pricing
Being the hybrid version, it is equipped with a smart motor generator along with a 149cc OBD-2B compliant engine which belts out 12.4 ps and 13.4 Nm of torque. The Yamaha FZ-S is available at a price tag of Rs 1.44 lakh (ex-showroom). The 'slight' push due to battery assisted acceleration takes load off the engine, thus resulting in a bump in overall fuel economy.
