Overview

The Yamaha FZ 16S is a naked motorcycle from the FZ family, produced for 2011. Its air-cooled, four-stroke single-cylinder engine displaces 153 cm³ and makes 14 Nm of torque at 6,000 rpm; the motorcycle weighs 137 kg.

The 790 mm seat height gives riders a useful reference for judging reach at stops, while the 137 kg weight can make low-speed maneuvering easier. The 12.9-liter fuel tank sets the amount carried between fuel stops, and chain final drive needs periodic cleaning and adjustment.

Pros and cons

Advantages

  • Manageable weight

    At 137 kg, the motorcycle should be easier to maneuver at low speeds than a heavier machine.

  • Accessible seat height

    The 790 mm seat height may make it easier for some riders to put their feet down at stops.

Things to consider

  • Chain upkeep

    The chain final drive needs regular cleaning and adjustment.

  • Rear drum brake

    The rear drum brake provides less braking bite than a rear disc.
