Yamaha FZ-X review, first ride

Yamaha has launched yet another derivative based on the Yamaha FZ series called the Yamaha FZ-X. We take the bike for a spin to find out how it performs.

Back in 2008, Yamaha launched the FZ series of street fighter bikes. It was a whole new take on sporty street bikes. It looks nothing like its competitors and came to market with a smooth, powerful and reliable engine and muscular looks as well. It was an instant hit and even I for that matter fell in love with the bike. So much so that few days after the first ride, I put money where my mouth is and booked one. It was one of the best bikes I have owned till date. However, with time the FZ series of bikes lost a bit of sheen but still was a hot-seller. Now Yamaha is adding a new variant based on this tried and tested formula. But is it one capable of catching fancy again? We are here to find out.
