The FZ-16 is a looker and it instantly attracts attention. It’s not possible to lose focus when you’re looking at the new Yamaha – it is both shapely and eye-catching. The Indian FZ borrows design cues from its stunning looking big brother, the FZ-1, and is equally dazzling to look at. Negligible body cladding is the rule on the FZ-16, with its engine and cycle parts gallantly noticeable as necessary elements of the bike’s general style. Designed to show minimum gaps and following a solid theme, the FZ-16 has been sculpted by old Yamaha partners, GK Dynamics of Japan.
The new bike uses lovely slim-spoke alloy rims in black and the same colour scheme for its engine, swingarm and silencer. Huge section tyres add to its charm, while a wide, conical front headlight with a sharp beam and small city light stare forward from below the FZ’s diminutive Liquid Crystal Display(LCD) instrument bay. The instruments – including a rev counter, speedometer and fuel gauge – offer all in a sporty-looking digital arrangement.
