Yamaha FZ FI Mileage

I bought yamaha fz bs6 bike in kolkata in 3rd week of june 2020. Overall buying experience was good and staffs of tanushaka yamaha were professional. In terms of riding experience of bike, it's like butter smooth. Needless to say about the fabulous looks of fz series of motorbikes which is popular among youth.I experienced that bike lags at higher speeds over 60kmph. Below that speed(under eco mode) performance is very nice.Normally i ride my bike in eco mode and easily manage to get mileage around 50km/lit.Braking is very nice, it gives confidence to stop bike in short span of time. Rear brake is a bit light but front brakes are perfect.Did 1st servicing of bike on 3rd week of july, it cost me around rs400 & was light on my pocket.Pros- smarty looks and nice performance with decent mileage over 50km/lit.Compared to other bikes in this segment it offers more features like dual disk brakes, digital meter console.Cons- slightly lagging performance at higher speeds over 70kmph.

I love this bike because its one of the mileage spots bike why i am saying because it give me 55+ millage and its sports bike man. It is awesome, i really like this.You can buy this bike with no doubt and enjoy the ride.There is some little problem that is if you ride the bike for long time(3 to 4 hours) may face some back pain issue that's it this the only problem we have.

I bought this bike in September 2023. Completed 5500km till now. Gone for a long ride and off-road rides as well. Let me share some pros and cons.
Pros:
1. The engine is excellent. It's a Japanese engine and there is no way I can doubt it. I have achieved 103kmph top speed till now. Could have achieved more but due to the lack of an empty road, was unable to achieve it.
2. Breaking is amazing. The ABS saved me so many times from fatal accidents. Rare engine braking is good too.
3. The tyre pressure and quality are nice. It's a radial tyre and it helps to control the bike smoothly. The rare wide type gives an amazing grip on the road.
4. Exhaust sound is bold. It suits the bike.
5. The clutch works like butter. The mileage I get is 45-48 on the local streets and 55 on long roads.
Cons:
1. The tank quality is really poor. Even if it is fibre, you can tap it with your 1 finger and it will bend and come back to normal.
2. The provided leg guard from the Yamaha showroom is pathetic. It will bend even if you hit it with a cricket bat.
3. The silver colour plate right beside the gear paddle (life side) and right beside the break paddle (right side) will make your shoe black. Because the silver plate releases a black colour once your toe touches it while applying the break or changing the gear.
4. The bike will start vibrating once you cross 63kmph speed on your speedometer. You can not watch anything on the rare view mirror properly after crossing 70kmph
5. Yamaha used to provide back tyre leg guards with BS4 engines. Now they provide half mud guard which makes the bike dirty right below the pillion seat. If anyone sits on the pillion seat during the rainy season, their pant will get dirty for sure
Rest, the bike is amazing. Best for long rides and senior persons can also sit on it.
I chose Yamaha instead of Hero, TVS and Bajaj because of engine reliability and service.

About the Reviewer

The buying experience was good; the dealer provided the bike on time.
Big tires give a steady riding experience.
The bulky tank gives a sporty look.
Mileage is also between 45-50 based on riding.
One servicing mechanic did even bother to listen to my request for suspension adjustment he told me there is not any setting.
Pros-
Sporty look
Big tires steady ride
Sometimes exhaust feels good.
Mileage
Cons-
Fiber quality was not good even after a single-handed decent use tank cover lock was broken.
Fiber quality is not good and gets scratched easily.
Low-quality paint on the brake and clutch lever.
The main dislike of bikes is the rear suspension, I sometimes feel like riding bicycles that hard it is.
With pillion suspension works but in the single seat it is worse.
For suspension, I am regretting to buy this and I will not recommend it to anyone.
