The meaty and musucular FZ-16 is all set to draw battle lines with pulsars, apache and Hunk. Inspired from the iconic FZ-1 this new FZ-16 with in-your -face styling is sure to lure even the R15 lovers. The 12-litre fuel tank with integrated shrouds and bulbous exhaust is eye-catching that even a BMW rider won&#8217;t miss.  Also the absence of cruiser bike (other than the Bullet&#8217;s) might also bring Yamaha  first mover advantage.<a href=\"http:\/\/www.vicky.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/09\/yamaha_fz_16_150.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3378 aligncenter\" title=\"yamaha_fz_16_150\" src=\"http:\/\/www.vicky.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/09\/yamaha_fz_16_150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.vicky.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/09\/yamaha_fz_16_150.jpg 400w, http:\/\/www.vicky.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/09\/yamaha_fz_16_150-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>The  visible 153cc, 2 valve, SOHC (Single Overhead Camshaft Engine) churns out 14PS of maximum power at 7500rpm.<\/strong><\/em> FZ-16 respires through a BS26 carburetor which operates through negative preesure. <em><strong>Peak torque of 13.6Nm is developed at 6000rpm.<\/strong><\/em> The 5 speed transmission of FZ-16 is a return type.<\/p>\n<p>The massive dimensions adds character to the bike. FZ-16 lengths 1975mm, its width is 770mm and it height 1045mm. Though it looks massive, FZ-16 weighs just 126kg, gasps&#8230;parking and running at low speed won&#8217;t be an issue.  The ground clearance of the FZ-16 is 160mm. The most important wheelbase parameter stood at 1335mm.<\/p>\n<p>Built on a diamond frame, this new FZ-16 runs on tubeless tyres both at the front and the rear. At the fore it gets 100\/60 -17 tyre  and at the rear FZ-16 features fattest 140\/60 -R17 tyre. You are reading it correctly, the rear tyre is a radial one. 267mm front disc brake and drum brake at the rear is to control this animal. The 41mm diameter hydraulic forks at the fore and mono-suspension at the rear will ensure stress-free cruising even during  longer rides. We can expect better damping characteristics from FZ-16 as the front fork travel generous 130mm and the rear mono-cross suspension provides 120mm of wheel travel. Yamaha FZ-16 will be available in three colours &#8211; Lava Red, Midnight Black and Flaming Orange.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You read it first at vicky.in After pounding enemies with its fighter aircraft YZF R15, Yamaha will showcase its muscle power with the launch of FZ-16 today.
