Simply the most underrated indian bike!They say it has only 20bhp.. They say it has only 5 gears.. They say it's not a liquid cooled engine.. They it has no vva.. They say the bike parts rust (esp exhaust pipe)..The bike has 20.9ps actually.. The number looks deceiving, it is a faster overall bike than any bike under it's price point (1.34-1.36 lacs exshowroom) in india..The bike looks muscular, understated, timelessly handsome.. The build quality, fit n finish is amongst the best.. A typical yamaha.. The exhaust rust issue is fully resolved in the 2019 model as it gets an anti rust unit..The bike's 5 gears are perfectly positioned n in sync with the engine characteristics! the bike doesn't need a 6th gear.. The bike can't hit the rev limiter in the 5th gear itself, what's the point in a 6th gear!.. The bike's top speed is 141@9250rpm which is 132 genuine.. It is not a liquid cooled engine coz it's compression ratio is 9.8:1 n therefore its not required.. The bike cools very well with the 4 row oil cooler.. Vva is required for high revving r15 coz the low n mid range torque is ordinary n needs some assistance.. The fz25 has excellent torque spread right from start till it's complete rev band.. It's a simple engine with no high tech wizardry as no gimmicky tech is required for this engine.. Yamaha knows how to design their engines.. They're the world no.2 for a reason!The bike's nvh is superb! the bike remains smooth even at 130kmph!! not only for the rider but also for the pillion!! the clutch pull has perfect weight n isn't ultra soft/ light nor heavy to give pain to the fingers.. Gearshifts are always positive.. No mis shifts or false neutrals.. World-class fueling thanks to a superbly tuned fi system which aids in brilliant throttle response..The bike packs great comfort for the rider as well as pillion with it's great ergonomics! perfect fatigue free riding triangle for both short, medium n tall riders.. Wide n cushy seats n brilliant ride quality makes the bike amongst the best to spend time on!.. Takes up bad roads with great composure n compliance.. The bike has good cornering clearance with adequately raised up rider footpeg n the diamond chassis does a very good job for cornering, overall stability n handling.. It's a fun bike to ride in city, highway n hills alike.. It's 152kg kerb weight is same as 200cc bikes! which helps it to be easy in urban jungle for everyday use.. Wheelbase of 1360mm gives it a perfect balance between city maneuvering n highway stability.. It's easy to park n push it if required.. The dual channel abs unit works brilliantly n provides the reassured safety in all conditions..The bike gives 37kmpl in city conditions which is great for a 250cc!! out on the highway it should easily cross 40+kmpl.. Even at a cruising speed of 120+, the bike gives me 30+kmpl on the highway which is tremendous!!The headlamp illumination is ordinary n adequate for city for speeds below 80kmph.. You have to add aux lights for additional light for confidence esp on highways.. The mrf tyres that come stock are below average n therefore needs an upgrade to a good quality pirellis ideally..The bike needs service once in 6 months/ 5000kms n therefore it's easy on the pocket.. The service bill including oil change n taxes work out to rs.2200 every 6 months.. At 1.75 lacs on road bangalore, it's a very good value for money.. Just the perfect practical machine and a great allrounder!!

Tips for Yamaha FZ25

If you buy the bike, upgrade the tyres to Pirelli Angel CT on both sides.. preferably Pirelli's Diablo Rosso 2 on the rear.. You have to add a pair of aux lights worth Rs.1000 for additional reassuring light in the night..

The bike is amazing and has served me well for the past 5 years. I've ridden it every day, maintenance is affordable and easy to do even on your own. The only sad part is that it only has a 5-speed gearbox, and even on the 5th gear, it still has plenty of power and wants one more gear to fully use the power on hold. The bike looks great and all but needs a 6-speed gearbox to utilize it's full power

Honest Review After Driving 39000 km In 5 Years
31 weeks ago
Rahul Tak
I have been using this bike for the last 5 years. The bike is very good to ride in the city or on highways. The special thing is I never had a back pain issue while riding on this bike. Daily I am riding 50km in city traffic. I am getting 34 mileage per liter. The best part of this bike is the seating position. My height is 6 feet 4 and 4 inches and I never feel discomfort on this bike. I have completed more than 39k km driving and then given this honest review.

Better than royal enfield. Superb engine refinement, mileage around 37-40 kmpl which is amazing. Beats all royal enfield bikes in performance and re is nowhere close to yamaha's engine refinement, however, I know RE does not make performance bikes. And even in 250cc segment fz25 is little underpowered but atleast its better than RE . The most amazing part is engine refinement which is what Yamaha is known for and best mileage which are my top reasons to buy this bike. However this bike has an issue with ground clearance which is manageable if you ride alone but need to be taken care of, with a pillion rider

Most underrated bike of yamaha
47 weeks ago
Tanmay Mohapatra
1. Budget-friendly
2. Easy & comfortable to ride
3. Funky look with decent performance
4. Low-cost service 7 maintenance
5. Pros - You can do long & city rides. It's worth its prize on that 250 cc segment and performance is best, brakes are excellent, tire grip to the drifting is best, and services ok but need to improve.
Cons - 5 no gears instead of 6 & little low power as compared to 250cc Very smooth, comfortable yet powerful bike. Just got it a week ago and I really liked it. I am 6 feet tall and I guess it would be comfortable for people of any height. The exhaust sound is really impressive too. People are noticing my bike on the roads.

You can go for N250 but this bike is big and looks good and attracts people
Comfortable and easy trick. Maintenance of this bike is very easy. This bike lacks only 2 things 1 additional gear and instrument cluster but when you drive it in city you won't need 6th gear, go for it.

The exhaust sound is really impressive too. People are noticing my bike on roads and the looks of this bike are really cool. I am told that its mileage is also really good for a 250 cc bike. I can confirm that after a couple of months of usage.

Best performance bike & awesome looks
1 year ago
Ayush Gawas
First of all my buying experience was very good I boked my bike and I got it within a week. I had not even taken a test ride of the bike. When I went to take delivery it was a very good experience. My first experience of riding this machine was very good the power and torque distribution are very well managed. It gives a raw feeling after riding this bike. I was impressed with the looks of this bike the muscular tank design and the robot-faced headlight. Performance is very good. The best torque of 20nm and power of 20bhp gives the best feeling for riding this machine in cities and highways. It manages mileage of 30-35 in the city & 40 on the highway. It gives a better riding range with the massive 14ltr tank. Servicing cost is higher. I bought my bike in 2018 and I have done 5-6 services till now.
Pros-
1 torque and power distribution
2 riding posture
3 brakes
4 handling
Cons-
1 better headlight performance
2 5th gear is missing
3 poor headlight visibility
4 needs better mileage

Smooth Comfortable yet Powerful

Sai Kiran
Very smooth, comfortable yet powerful bike. Just got it a week ago and I really liked it. I am 6 feet tall and I guess it would be comfortable for people of any height. The exhaust sound is really impressive too. People are noticing my bike on roads and the looks of this bike are really cool. I am told that its mileage is also really good for a 250 cc bike. I can confirm that after a couple of months of usage.

Best performance bike & awesome looks
1 year ago
Ayush Gawas
First of all my buying experience was very good I boked my bike and I got it within a week. I had not even taken a test ride of the bike. When I went to take delivery it was a very good experience. My first experience of riding this machine was very good the power and torque distribution are very well managed. It gives a raw feeling after riding this bike. I was impressed with the looks of this bike the muscular tank design and the robot-faced headlight. Performance is very good. The best torque of 20nm and power of 20bhp gives the best feeling for riding this machine in cities and highways. It manages mileage of 30-35 in the city & 40 on the highway. It gives a better riding range with the massive 14ltr tank. Servicing cost is higher. I bought my bike in 2018 and I have done 5-6 services till now.
Pros-
1 torque and power distribution
2 riding posture
3 brakes
4 handling
Cons-
1 better headlight performance
2 5th gear is missing
3 poor headlight visibility
4 needs better mileage

Need more gears
3 days ago
Purlanson
The bike is amazing and has served me well for the past 5 years. I've ridden it every day, maintenance is affordable and easy to do even on your own. The only sad part is that it only has a 5-speed gearbox, and even on the 5th gear, it still has plenty of power and wants one more gear to fully use the power on hold. The bike looks great and all but needs a 6-speed gearbox to utilize it's full power

Honest Review After Driving 39000 km In 5 Years
31 weeks ago
Rahul Tak
I have been using this bike for the last 5 years. The bike is very good to ride in the city or on highways. The special thing is I never had a back pain issue while riding on this bike. Daily I am riding 50km in city traffic. I am getting 34 mileage per liter. The best part of this bike is the seating position. My height is 6 feet 4 and 4 inches and I never feel discomfort on this bike. I have completed more than 39k km driving and then given this honest review.

Drag king 25
44 weeks ago
Drag King
Better than royal enfield. Superb engine refinement, mileage around 37-40 kmpl which is amazing. Beats all royal enfield bikes in performance and re is nowhere close to yamaha's engine refinement, however, I know RE does not make performance bikes. And even in 250cc segment fz25 is little underpowered but atleast its better than RE . The most amazing part is engine refinement which is what Yamaha is known for and best mileage which are my top reasons to buy this bike. However this bike has an issue with ground clearance which is manageable if you ride alone but need to be taken care of, with a pillion rider

Worthy bike

You can go for N250 but this bike is big and looks good and attracts people
Comfortable and easy trick. Maintenance of this bike is very easy. This bike lacks only 2 things 1 additional gear and instrument cluster but when you drive it in city you won't need 6th gear, go for it.
