My knight black yamaha fz251. Buying experience: i bought my knight black fz25 from vinayak yamaha, domlur, bangalore on 4th january 2018. The registration date of my bike is 1st january 2019. Service provided here during sale was pretty good and quicker than i thought. I only had to wait for a week or so before i got my hands on this beautiful machine.2. Riding experience: i never missed 6th gear in this machine, though i missed abs. Although, yamaha has always given best brakes, both discs and drums. As everyone says, yes! fz25 is a wonderful tourer, no doubt. It performs very well in hilly roads. I myself have tried doing 4th gear in ghat section, even in some of hairpin bends.3. Looks: it's a beast. Fz25 design is just great no doubt. It looks pretty well. 4. Service and maintenance: when it comes to service part, it's cheaper when compared to some other 250cc segments. Fz25 is not treated as superbike thereby reducing its cost of maintenance. Minimum cost of service rs.1,500 and maximum depends on how many parts are to be replaced on your bike. My highest service cost till date is 6k.5. Pros: I) as mentioned above, it's a great tourer. It's high torque makes it perfect for hilly roads.Ii) seat position is well designed, back ache reduced.Iii) beautiful body design, headlight design.Iv) extra mud guard for rear tyre, which is essential during monsoon.V) 48 teeth strong chain sprocket Cons:I) it definitely misses abs. At least optional abs could have been given.Ii) strength of headlight: if you are a night-tourer, you definitely need extra aux lights.Iii) 6th gear: i really don't miss 6th gear but it could have added little more power, i believe.Iv) front tyre: mrf 100/80-17- this tyre has wobbling issues. If you ride at 60-70kmph and try leaving your hands or not hold the handle tightly, you'll feel an uncomfortable wobbling. However, this can be completely avoided if you change the tyre after completing 18000-20000kms.V) engine oil-yamalube: don't know why this oil gets unusable so quickly. Even though, yamaha says 5000kms is the service interval, if you check the engine oil at 3000kms, it's totally black and worst. Here, i would definitely recommend everyone to use motul engine oil. But be sure to use yamaha specified series- 10w40 or at the max you can put 10w50.

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.

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

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
6 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

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

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.

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.
