All
set to give the year 2010 a spectacular finish, India Yamaha Motor Pvt.
Ltd. unveiled two new bikes - 998cc Yamaha FZ1 and 153cc Yamaha SZ-R,
adding a new credo for the bikers in India with the archetype Yamaha DNA
of Performance, Innovation & Design.
Commenting
on the occasion, Hiroyuki Suzuki, CEO & Managing Director, India
Yamaha Motor said, "India is one of the key markets for Yamaha and we
have been constantly shifting gears to transform the market from utility
to pleasure & lifestyle. Yamaha offers innovative designs, sporty
looks and premium features across models as part of its strategy to give
consumers a new thrill in biking. After the successful launch of our
superbikes and 150 cc bikes in the Indian market over the last 3 years,
we are adding two new bikes to our portfolio corroborating Yamaha’s
continued commitment to provide world-class products to its consumers".
"While
FZ1 is a naked sports bike with fuel-injected power and ‘Pure Torque’
for the ultimate riding experience, SZ-R gives the 150cc commuters
segment a sporty edge apart from delivering Power, Comfort and Style. SZ
series bikes launched in August 2010 and aggressive pricing of Rs.
49,000/- have high demand and are gaining popularity across India.
Customers have been demanding inclusion of the disc brake version which
is now available in SZ-R. We are confident that our new bike models will
once again capture the hearts of our customers and will further
consolidate our position in the market", he added.
Yamaha FZ1 Features:
Yamaha
FZ1, a power packed sports bike comes with a compact design and 998cc
DOHC 20-valve engine tuned for tremendous mid-range punch and massive
top-end power. The cast aluminum bodywork and a comfortable handlebar
position give the bike great looks while ensuring the comfort of the
rider. The closed-deck cylinder block provides great strength while
allowing a narrow engine in spite of big 77mm bores. The high
silicon-content ceramic-composite cylinder lining reduces friction and
maximizes heat dissipation for consistent power delivery. Also, the fuel
injection with computer-controlled sub-throttle valves provides precise
fuel/air mixture for outstanding power delivery through its broad rpm
range while ensuring compliance of all emissions regulations.
Its
race-inspired curved radiator with twin ring-style fans keeps
everything cool under all conditions. The aggressive chassis geometry
with supersport inspired 51 percent front wheel weight bias provides
quick and nimble handling. The 320mm front discs aided by mono-block
four-piston calipers up front and a single 245mm rear disc serve up
strong and consistent stopping power.
Other
high-tech prominent features of the bike include analog tachometer,
digital speedometer, dual trip meter, odometer, water temperature and
lights for neutral, high beam, low fuel and turn signals. The half-cowl
fairing design gives aggressive eye-catching naked profile to the bike.
The dual 12V 60/55 watt multi-reflector headlight features a sleek
profile for superb aerodynamics and visibility.
Yamaha
commitment to technologically advanced machines is accentuated by the
bike’s cornering acceleration ability which delivers the maximum amount
of drive force in the smoothest manner possible. FZ1 is available in 2
color options - Black and White at an ex-showroom price (Delhi) of Rs.
8,70,000/-.
Yamaha SZ-R Features:
The
153cc Yamaha SZ-R is a modern & sporty version of Yamaha SZ-X which
is a powerful, comfortable and stylish commuter. The muscular SZ-R is
targeted at commuter customers with their sports-oriented interests and
is designed to create the sensation of "High Speed". The bike comes with
front disc brake, tachometer and has tank protector added to the fuel
tank to make it appear even larger.
Furthermore,
the shroud of the standard Yamaha SZ-X model is replaced by an
aerodynamic spoiler that extends out boldly and is given the same silver
coloring as the side covers. The bike also has clear lens flasher,
colored handle grip end bar, painted muffler end caps along with special
graphics. SZ-R is priced at Rs. 55,500/- (Ex-showroom price - Delhi)
and will be available in 3 color options – Quality Black, Quality Red
and Quality Blue.
With
the launch of FZ1 and SZ-R, Yamaha is all set to provide Indian riders a
chance to experience true ‘Art of Engineering’, which lies at the heart
of Yamaha’s creations. The duo is extremely well engineered,
comfortable, stylish and promises to be the best in their respective
categories.
