Scoop!! Yamaha FZ150 spy pictures!

First came the Yamaha R15 then the stunner from Honda – CBF 125 and now it time for the FZ150!! The Indian bike scene rocking like never before!

Three beauties together is a sight ;)

The hunky beast FZ150 was caught being tested on road recently. Guess we don't have to wait for too long to see the FZ150 at our friendly neighbourhood Yamaha showroom.


When Yamaha FZ150 was unveiled during the Auto Expo earlier this year, it was love at first sight for all bike enthusiasts present there. After the launch of the superb R15 Yamaha is turning their attention on launching the FZ150.

Yamaha has nicely implemented the design elements of their popular naked bike FZ1 onto its miniscule cousin FZ15 . Probably the 'F' in FZ150 stands for 'Fabulous' as the naked bike with its muscular tank, chunky forks, wide rear tyre and stout exhaust, probably makes it the sexiest motorcycle ever manufactured in India.


The FZ150 will sport an engine (150cc) similar to the Yamaha's previous blockbuster the R15, but with a carburetor. Hopefully this would pump around 14 to 15 bhp, with amazing mid-range performance and should be priced around Rs 70,000.

The brilliant spy pictures of the FZ15 in action was taken by Ishaan from Team-Bhp.com.

Honda to launch a stunning new bike on June 30th 2008

After R15 - Yamaha's mini super bike, Mr. Dependable - Honda India, is all set to launch a brand new stunner themselves. Check the pictures on top, its from Honda India's website. It is speculated that the new bike will be based on the internationally successful CBR125s. Rumors are that it will have the following specs;

Engine: 125cc
Power: 11 bhp
Brakes: Front Disc
Tyres: Front & Rear Tubeless
Design: Half-fairing, Sporty Foot Pegs
Seat: Split-seated Design
Odometer: Digital

But I have my fingers crossed and hope they tweaked the 150cc engine which can pump up to 17 BHP with a twist of wrist.

During the Auto Expo, earlier this year the concept bike that was on display at the Honda stall. I guess it was done on purpose to get a feeler from the public about the displayed model. Compare the my Auto Expo Photos with the images from Honda India website.
