Yamaha FZ Rave: The Yamaha FZ Rave is the latest addition to the FZ family that has been popular for a while. It has a sportier and sharper design while still keeping the same reliable mechanical setup that the riders have loved. If you have decided to purchase this motorcycle, then here is a list of the key features you should know about it, in a very clear and simple way.
Engine
The Yamaha FZ Rave utilizes the same 149cc, air-cooled, single-cylinder engine that has been used throughout the FZ series and is known for its low-end torque and fuel efficiency and hence is an ideal candidate for daily riding. It gives 12.4hp at a rotation of 7,250 and 13.3Nm of torque at 5,500rpm, with a 5-speed gearbox that works very smoothly. This engine is associated with its power, good low-end pull and fuel-efficient nature, making it really suitable for daily commuting.
Braking
The single-channel ABS is a standard feature on the motorcycle which provides a safer ride and stable braking performance. For the front brake, Yamaha has opted for a 282mm rotor with a rear 220mm disc, giving the FZ Rave a strong stopping power in both city and highway riding situations.
Seat Height
The FZ Rave is a bike that has a seat-height of 790mm which is not very high and hence it is still a bike for most of the riders. The FZ has the same dimensions as its predecessor, the standard FZ in terms of a 136kg kerb weight, a 13-litre fuel-tank, and 165mm ground clearance. These numbers will make it comfortable, balanced, and easy to handle for regular use.
Colours
There are the bold matte green and the sleek metallic black among the two most emphasized colors that the manufacturer has chosen for the FZ Rave. These two models are also available with bright red alloy wheels that not only add a sporty touch but also make the Rave very recognizable. The variant has also introduced a new LED headlight design that differentiates it from the other motorcycles in the FZ range.
Price
The Yamaha FZ Rave comes with a price tag of Rs 1.17 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). Thus, it emerges as the third cheapest motorcycle in the FZ series, coming just after the FZ-Fi and FZ-S Fi Version 3.0. The FZ Rave is a great buy for the-oriented customers looking for a bike that is good looking and reliable at the same time.
