Yamaha unviels FZ 8 and Fazer 8

Yamaha Fazer 8



 Yamaha FZ 8



Yamaha introduces into its much famous line-up the Fazer and FZ series 2 new models. The FZ 8 and Fazer 8 are expected to be sold in high demand as its a series not in the very mid or in the high range. The 600cc to 1000cc jump in yamaha's engine gap is now filled with these 800cc engine bikes.

The semi-faired Fazer 8 and naked FZ8 both share the same new, athletic 779cc inline four-cylinder engine that is a stressed member in an all-aluminium frame. It pumps out a very respectable 105bhp at 10,000rpm, with 82Nm of torque kicking in 2,000rpm and it feels more like a diluted version of the FZ1's engine than a beefed up variant of the XJ6 that now occupies the first rung on the Yamaha ladder for newbies.

While the Fazer8 gains in cornering abilities, the FZ8 is light and energetic. The  Fazer8 also features an ABS and pillion grips. FZ8 in particular, feel compact, light and very easy to ride which is ideal for the middleweight riders Yamaha is hoping to entice.It's just a shame the cost of ownership isn't as attractive as the rideability.
