NOVA YAMAHA FAZER 250cc 2023 | AVALIAÇÃO COMPLETA

Yamaha Fazer 250 Review: Performance Insights

Introduction to the Yamaha Fazer 250

• The video introduces the Yamaha Fazer 250, also known as FZ25, highlighting it as a new Street Premium model from Yamaha.

• Emphasis on the importance of proper tire calibration for accurate riding impressions; under-inflated tires can significantly alter handling and performance.

Test Ride Overview

• Acknowledgment of Yamaha Comasa de Marília for providing the motorcycle for testing; viewers are encouraged to suggest other models they want reviewed.

• The focus of this review is on performance aspects rather than technical specifications, which were covered in a previous video.

Specifications and Features

• The bike features a single-cylinder engine with 249cc displacement, producing approximately 20.7 horsepower at the wheel and 2.1 kgf·m of torque.

• Fuel capacity is around 3 liters, with flex technology allowing use of both gasoline and ethanol; current test uses gasoline.

Riding Experience

• Described as versatile for both work and leisure; noted for its agility in urban settings compared to smaller models like FZ15.

• Impressive power delivery with nearly 21 horsepower suitable for city riding; top speed tests planned during the review.

Comfort and Ergonomics

• Rider position is comfortable even for taller individuals (nearly 2 meters); tank design allows good leg fitment.

• Seat comfort is highlighted, though some discomfort noted due to seat design when carrying a passenger.

Handling and Suspension

• Equipped with Pirelli Sport tires that enhance cornering ability; described as enjoyable to ride through urban curves.

• Suspension quality praised for robustness; features adjustable rear mono-shock suspension enhancing ride comfort.

Instrumentation and Fuel Efficiency

• Digital panel displays RPM up to 11,000 along with fuel level indicators; odometer reading at approximately 9,700 km during testing.

Motorcycle Performance Insights

Fuel Consumption and Performance

• The motorcycle's fuel consumption is noted to be higher than average, with a current reading of 26.7 km/l while being aggressively ridden.

• The bike features front and rear disc brakes, equipped with ABS on both wheels, enhancing safety during braking.

Braking System Analysis

• The rider demonstrates the effectiveness of the brakes by stopping from 100 km/h over a short distance, showcasing the performance of the ABS system.

• A slow-motion demonstration will illustrate how the ABS functions during hard braking scenarios.

Understanding ABS Technology

• The ABS technology operates using sensors that monitor wheel speed; if one wheel slows down significantly compared to the other, it adjusts brake pressure to prevent locking up.

• This rapid adjustment allows for optimal braking performance, mimicking professional riding techniques even for everyday riders.

Testing Brake Efficiency

• A telemetry device called "Drag" is introduced to measure acceleration and braking metrics accurately.

• Calibration involves connecting to satellites for precise data collection regarding speed and deceleration during tests.

Brake Test Results

• Initial tests show that from 50 km/h to a complete stop takes approximately 11.05 meters in 2.02 seconds under controlled conditions.

• Subsequent tests yield slightly varying results but consistently demonstrate effective stopping distances around 11.9 meters at similar speeds.

Acceleration Metrics

• Acceleration tests reveal impressive figures: reaching 0 to 60 km/h in about 4.03 seconds and completing an eighth-mile in just over 11 seconds.

• These metrics highlight the motorcycle's strong performance capabilities within its class, emphasizing its competitive edge in acceleration.

Safety Considerations During Testing

• All tests are conducted in a controlled environment ensuring safety without external traffic interference, aiming for reliable data collection.

Motorcycle Performance Insights

Suspension and Handling

• The Fazer 250's suspension does not reach the end of its travel even under heavy braking, indicating robust performance.

• The motorcycle maintains a speed of approximately 87-88 km/h when the dashboard shows close to 100 km/h, highlighting a discrepancy in speedometer accuracy.

• At cruising speeds around 110 km/h, the engine runs at about 6,500 RPM, which is within legal limits for most Brazilian highways.

Acceleration and Speed Limitations

• The bike accelerates quickly from 100 km/h to around 145 km/h but struggles on inclines, dropping to about 125 km/h.

• A top speed of approximately 151-153 km/h is reached before hitting an RPM limiter in fifth gear, suggesting potential for more power with an additional gear.

Riding Comfort and Ergonomics

• The riding position is described as comfortable; the compact design allows for better maneuverability in traffic situations.

• Excellent cornering capabilities are noted; the bike performs well even at high speeds during turns.

Top Speed Testing

• A test reveals that reaching top speed may be limited by existing gear ratios; further testing will confirm if higher speeds can be achieved.

General Impressions and Features

• Overall impressions are positive; the motorcycle is deemed suitable for daily use and leisure activities due to its aesthetic appeal and functionality.

Motorcycle Review and Purchase Insights

Overview of the Motorcycle Features

• The speaker discusses the Flex technology in motorcycles, expressing a general satisfaction with the bike but notes that it lacks a sixth gear and a gear position indicator, which is present in other models like the FZ 125.

• The Yamaha motorcycle is praised for its impeccable finish and aesthetic appeal, comparing its size to larger bikes (400-500cc), highlighting its competitive pricing as well.

Purchasing Information

• Viewers are informed about purchasing options at Yamaha Comasa de Marília, where the 2023 model is available for immediate delivery. The dealership offers various models ready for test drives.

• Emphasizing the importance of test riding before purchase, the speaker compares buying a motorcycle to trying on clothes, noting that adjustments are minimal compared to cars.

Engagement and Promotions

• The speaker encourages viewers to support their channel by mentioning that Yamaha Comasa de Marília provides excellent service and special pricing if they reference the video when visiting.

• Viewers are invited to subscribe to the channel for updates on new content and participate in an Instagram giveaway for a Hayabusa motorcycle with low mileage for just R$30.
