Two New Bikes from Yamaha in September 2009
Yamaha is aiming its guns at the numero uno position in the bike segment in India. Rumors are doing rounds that the company intends to roll out two new bikes next month. There is no confirmed news about the same and the company is still tight-lipped about it.
One of the models coming up next month is expected to be from the Fazer series while the other one is expected to be a CBU unit like R1. The company also intends to expand its dealer outlets in India taking the total to 550 across India.
Yamaha has been witnessing a continuous growth in its sales figures since past few months. To the company’s delight, customers have gladly accepted the new products whenever they were launched and the sales figures have grown remarkably. Yamaha is also bullish on its FZ-16 platform and has rolled out variants like Fazer and FZ-S.
“We are overwhelmed by the customer response to recently introduced Fazer which is fast catching the imagination of biking and touring aficionado. This further propels us to focus on superior technology, manufacturing excellence and dynamism,” said Yukimine Tsuji, CEO & MD, India Yamaha Motor. The company is also preparing its dealers to sell its higher end models to the masses.

yamaha was brave once, and the ultimate market leader by ushering in rd-350,more than 25 yrs back. imagine, 350 for the enthusiasts and rx-100 for aspirationalists of 350.
theyve never reached that league again. bringing in these 1000 cc's is an eyewash. its not for the enthusiasts, its like getting s bluewhale and putting it into the swimming pool. those bikes are for show and then sad excuses of 135-200 ccs for enthusiasts...what is the problem...why not 500s, 650's...so that one has a mix between performance, visual appeal and price for the enthusiasts. a 100 people will buy a 4 lac machine compared to 2 who will buy a 12 lac machine. the ones who buy a 4 lac machine are enthusiasts who will save to do so. the 2 who buy a 12 lac machine just have the money to buy it and probably take it out, 5 sundays in a year. deepak pathania (August 21, 2009)

Yamaha has proved that it's very competant producer of bikes even for markets like India by adopting it's international design capabilities. Wish and hope the new launches will be more delightful. Shall we expect FZ6 for our market?. It's better they make a four cylinder FZ4 for India, at India, Pricing as per India.
