What's the story
Yamaha has increased the prices of its popular offerings from the FZ series in India. It is the second cost revision for the Yamaha bikes this year, with a marginal hike of Rs. 1,000 across the range. The new pricing might put a dent in the sales of the FZ Fi, FZS Fi, and FZS Fi Deluxe. They are powered by 149cc single-cylinder engine.

Why does this story matter?
Yamaha is a popular choice for college students and young professionals in the sub-200cc commuter category of two-wheelers in India. The Japanese bikemaker was one of the earliest to offer performance motorcycles on our shores, under its R and FZ series. However, the brand has now hiked the prices across its FZ range to offset the rise in input costs.
