Yamaha Fazer 25: All You Need To Know

India Yamaha Motor has launched the much awaited Fazer 25 at Rs. 1, 29,335 (ex-showroom, Delhi). Carandbike's expected pricing was bang on at Rs. 1.3 lakh as well. It was barely five months ago that Yamaha had launched the FZ25. The company did think that it would be wise to bring out a faired variant of the motorcycle, with the Indian two-wheeler enthusiast's fondness for a faired motorcycle. Yamaha had never had a quarter-litre faired motorcycle in India. With more and more people looking to buy performance motorcycle, it might actually prove to be a good move. Whether it does or not, is a different question though! Here are top 5 facts that you should know about the newly launched Yamaha Fazer 25, should you want to get your hands on one.
