The company has released two teaser images of the upcoming street-fighter FZ series motorcycle. Test-mules of this motorcycle have been spotted completely undisguised on various occasions, revealing quite a few details. The new model will sport the typical muscular design as seen on the FZ series while taking a few design cues from the MT-15 and MT-03.
A few other highlights would include an LED tail light, conventional telescopic fork suspension setup up-front and Bybre sourced disc brakes on both ends. The motorcycle will also come equipped with the Automatic headlight on, a safety feature that is set to become a norm in the Indian market.
Details of the engine remain limited although the upcoming model from the FZ series is expected to draw power from a 250cc single cylinder air/oil cooled engine. Power and torque figures are expected to stand in the range of 23-28 PS and 20-23 Nm respectively. Stay tuned as we get you details of this upcoming product from Yamaha live from the launch event in Delhi on January 24.
