Just got my hands on this amazing ride! The performance is robust and the style is retro, perfect for my daily commute and weekend leisurely rides.
Enjoying the retro design and robust performance of my two-wheeler. It’s efficient and ideal for everyday use. However, is there a way to improve the fuel consumption?
Hi Tan Wei, thank you for your feedback and we’re thrilled to hear you’re enjoying your Yamaha FZ16 ST! As for the fuel consumption, it generally depends on your riding style and conditions. Generally, maintaining a steady speed, avoiding rapid acceleration, and regular bike servicing can help improve efficiency. If you continue to have concerns, we recommend contacting a Yamaha service center for more personalized advice.
Riding this feels as reliable as it gets. With a touch of vintage flair, it’s definitely my go-to for both practical and adventuresome trips.
I am curious about the hydraulic single disc brake. Is it more efficient compared to the double disc brake system?
Hi Ravi Sharma, Thanks for your interest in the Yamaha FZ16 ST. The bike is equipped with a hydraulic single disc brake system which is designed to offer reliable stopping power. However, the efficiency between single and double disc brake systems may vary based on different factors. Double disc brake systems potentially provide more stopping power compared to single disc systems. However, for most street riding conditions and especially for a motorcycle with the specifications of the FZ16 ST, a single disc brake should be more than adequate. However, the choice depends on your preference and riding conditions.
Loving my bike’s retro style. Can’t believe its top speed is 112km/h for a 153 cc engine. Worth the price.
I can’t help but question the fuel consumption. Is it really as efficient as stated, consuming only 2.9 litres/100km?
Hello Wong Jia Hui, Thank you for your review. The Yamaha FZ16 ST does have a remarkable fuel efficiency as stated, but do note that fuel consumption can vary based on factors such as your riding style and the condition of the road. The stated 2.9 litres/100km is under optimal conditions.
Hi, can somebody explain the difference between air-cooled and liquid-cooled engines? Is one better than the other?
Hi Mohd Ali, thank you for your question! Air-cooled engines and liquid-cooled engines primarily differ in their cooling process. Air-cooled engines rely on air flow over the engine for cooling, which makes them simpler, lighter, and often more economical. However, they might not be as efficient in intensive heat situations. On the other hand, liquid-cooled engines use a coolant fluid for heat transfer, leading to more consistent engine temperatures. They are often quieter and more efficient, but could be more complex and costly in maintenance. It basically boils down to your personal preferences and how you plan to use the bike. Hope this helps!
Can anyone confirm if the hydraulic single disc brake is decent for everyday rides in traffic?
Hello Rahul Das, Thank you for your query! The Yamaha FZ16 ST does come with a Hydraulic Single Disc Brake. It is designed for everyday use including rides in traffic. It provides enough stopping power for normal to heavy braking. However, as with any vehicle, rider experience and comfort level may affect the sense of effectiveness. If you have any further questions, feel free to reach out. Happy Riding!
