Yamaha FZS v3 BS6 Launched in Nepal: Now with X Connect Bluetooth Connectivity!

Yamaha FZS FI v3.0 BS6 is now available in Nepal.

MAW Enterprises, the authorized distributor of Yamaha motorcycles in Nepal, has announced the launch of its much-anticipated Yamaha FZS v3.

There aren’t many changes compared to the past iteration. Nonetheless, there are still a few interesting improvements.

We will get to that in a bit.

As for the pricing, Yamaha FZS v3.0 BS6 price in Nepal starts at Rs. 3.94 Lakhs.

The new pricing has made it the most premium 150cc motorcycle in Nepal. Don’t worry, we will talk about that too.

With that said, let’s take a quick look at the new Yamaha FZS v3 BS6 X-Connect in Nepal along with its key specifications.

Yamaha FZS v3.0 BS6 Overview

Design

Yamaha FZS v3 sports a familiar styling. It features all of the hallmarks of a premium naked sport, including a large sculpted fuel tank.

The front section comes with a LED headlamp with separate bulbs for high and low beams. Moreover, the halogen indicators are situated in the top position.

Moving the side section, it continues to maintain a muscular road presence.

However, new elements like brighter side panels, a 3D emblem, and new colors help it feel a bit extra special.

Furthermore, the rear section remains unchanged. It comes with the same halogen tail lamp and a large grab bar.

Additionally, Yamaha FZS v3 BS6 is available in four new colors: Red, Blue, Black, and Vintage Green.

Performance

Yamaha FZ-S FI is powered by a 149cc, Single-Cylinder, SOHC, FI engine. It can generate a max power of 12.4 PS at 7250rpm and a max torque of 13.3 Nm at 5500rpm. Moreover, it is mated with a 5-speed gearbox with a 12.8-liter fuel tank capacity.

The BS6 iteration produces 0.8PS less power but 0.5Nm more torque. Since the RPM has been reduced by a margin, the performance should feel punchier than the last BS4 iteration.

Nevertheless, all Yamaha BS6 motorcycles have a slight reduction in power train figures.

Yamaha FZS v3.0 competes with Suzuki Gixxer 155, TVS Apache RTR 160 4V ABS, and Bajaj Pulsar 160 ABS.

Yamaha Nepal is at the unfortunate end of the recent two-wheeler tax hike. Add that with the already customary BS6 price hike, and it is a complete recipe for criticism.

Nevertheless, it is a new reality where 150-160cc motorcycles are only available at that price range.

Plus, the same things will be seen across all two-wheeler brands, especially when the companies start introducing their BS6 models.
