Yamaha today launched the much awaited FZ16 in Goa. FZ16 is designed specifically for the Indian market with the Yamaha DNA. “Our two new motorcycles were specifically designed for India. We would continue designing products specifically for this market which reflect global Yamaha DNA. Going forward, we want to be perceived as a premium bike maker in India with which youth of this country identifies,” India Yamaha Motor (IYM) CEO and Managing Director Tsutomu Mabuchi said. “Going forward, products unique to the Indian market such as the R15 and the newly launched FZ16 will play a major role in the revitalisation of Yamaha here,” he added. FZ16 is priced Rs65000 (ex-showroom) and Yamaha hopes to sell 30000 units before the end of 2008.
