Much to the thought of the people, Yamaha has launched its latest improved model of FZ/FZ-S called “Midnight”. Midnight is an improved version of the much popular versions viz. FZ and FZ-S and it is a limited edition model up for grabs. Last year Yamaha launched the special edition of the FZ series in white color and this time they came up with a spunky color pattern called “Midnight”.
It is a cool looking bike with its black color body and golden colored alloys. The model also sports golden stickers of FZ on the tank. Midnight also sports some use of cool graphics on the side panel of the bike and also a sticker which says “Midnight Special”, this adds a spunky life to the bike.
Yamaha has only altered the look and not the technicality of the special limited edition bike. Also, Midnight edition will only be available during the festive season.
Yamaha has launched this bike with a view to capture the market during the festive season. Although there are no alterations as regards engine performance, the new color scheme has made the bike look stylish and attractive. Now that the edition is finally available, we are sure to see many of these new FZ’s on road.

Is Yamaha doing what Hero Honda did? “New bikes” but not really new bikes. New stickers. But I am not really angry this time because they put some golden alloy wheels which is really good.
i totally agree dude.
yamaha is out of mind…but atleast honda didnt raise the price for stickering job
hey is this only available during festive season??????
These look great…!
yea…i’m with u..
Good Info.
I dont think Yamaha is goin HH way but as promised before they are tring to atleast introduce new colour combinations into the bike which I feel is impressive. People went mad buying the limited edition white colour and I m definately sure this colour will be a favorite for a large crowd. When Fz-s was released in yellow and red, few bought it and suddenly they brought in the green and blue & it was really intresting for new buyers to choose from the colour options. But of course now a days bike manufacturers in India try weird colour combinations first and attempt sales boost. Eager buyers fall trap to it and when new colours roll out the same eager buyer repent of not waiting knowing the new colour being rolled out. HH did the same with the tasmanian green and yellow.
why cant they give a wide range of colour combinations at one shot if its feasible..?
I remember HH passion plus had 11 different combinations to choose from….
Bike manufacturers have learnt to use paints vibrantly rather than R&D on motor or design aspect…
I would like to get a one
Yaar overall bike is looking cool but yamaha has its own identity so plz yamaha ko vapas nikal laooooooooo
Its a color scheme taken right from the R1 (2010 version)…black body and gold alloy wheels…great combination and excellent graphics…hope the same scheme comes up in Fazer…would be much more attractive than seen on FZ…
This is definately better than the white-blue limited edition color scheme launched during the last festive season…
sExyyyyyyyyyyyy……
hope that if someone who wants to replace their golden rim later on due to some reason should get a golden one and not have to settle for something else cos it was limited edition….
imagine one rim golden and other black……..
getting my black green fz-s on dasshera after waiting for 2 months due to shortage
then again MIDNIGHT is……
sExyyyyyyyyyyyy……
chEERs
It looks very nice, but why Yamaha or Honda are not launching higher capacity bikes like above 200 cc? Woul like to see some 250 cc and above bikes. Yamaha was leading when it had RD350 but now they are limiting to 150 cc.
GOT IMPRESSED WITH GOLD COLOUR ALLOY WHEELS AND NEW GRAPHIC DESIGN……….
YAMAHA SHOULD CONCENTRATE MORE ON DESIGN AND MILAGE PROVIDING STRONG AND POWERFUL ENGINE……. IF THIS BIKE IS PROVIDED WITH COMPANY FITTED BACK DISC BREAK & SPLIT SEAT (A BIT BIG COMPARED TO CURRENT ONE) TOO; WILL PROVIDE AN EXTRA ADVANTAGE…… ANY WAYS BYKE LOOKS MARVOLUS. I AM GREAT FAN OF 2 BYKE MANUFACTURERS…..
1) DESH KI JAAN, DESH KI NABZ, POORNATAYA BHARATIYA- APNA BAJAJ, THE MAKER OF INDIAN PULSE——————–>PULSAR>>>>>>>>>>>>>>oVo
&
2) INTERNATIONAL TWO WHEELER GIANT AND ONE OF THE LEADING COMPANY—————YES———YAMAHA>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>oVo
diwali offer as rtr160 too has come with new stickers and they say new bike, no but a new name
Looks Great…The FZ will look amazing even if you paint it purple…I just love the bike..
I just want to know .from which day onword it could avl in market
OMFG…
just now i bought FZ 16…:(
I bought this
. And its damn sexy 
the difference apart from the graphics, is that the kick start comes by default now ( just in case )
I was trying to describe the same in another post a few days ago
@ambarish: Sry bro
and its LE, only 1k made
Its cool…. But no alterations means same mileage na…. and cost tooo
rs 2700 more for ths FZ
Looks really good…
Its good to see like this but too cost
I heard that there were only 1000 bikes made and each bike is number with a manufacturing tag… something like 1/1000. 2/1000. true or not yet to be known…
this upgraded version is good looks wise but buying this bike is an utterwaste because the on road price tag of this bike is Rs.80,000 investing such a huge amount of money on this bike completely rubbish one can go for Karizma r or pulsor 220 by adding an extra amount of RS.5000-6000 those machines are more powerful than fz and at the same time a great value for money product i think yamaha are playing games with indian people
Looking nice….. wanna know more about the Fazer8 and FZ8
Wat wud b d on-road cost for dis ???
I always felt that Yamaha had its own crowd and HH had its own. As per my views about HH, they always promoted mileage bikes(splendor & passion types) with flashy stickering so that it would look stylish. Whereas Yamaha on the other hand always promoted performance bikes (R series and FZ). Both have done good in their ways, but coming to the midnight version of FZ – Seems like Yamaha is copying the strategy of HH with the promotions with flashy stickering..
I always felt, Yamaha fans would buy bikes looking at the performance rather than the stickering jobs.
Cheers!

Ya sexy bike…….imagine long drive with girlfriend on this bike…..so romantic….
Golden scheme is more liked by Arabs!
Need proof? Just google out for Burj Al Arab interiers…
Reminds me Dubai Special or Arab Avataar!
Sorry but I don’t understand the mentality of people who ride funny-looking expensive bikes like this.
We have a guy in our locality who rides a bike that looks like a preying mantis. Something similar to this: http://www.brian.net/pictures/Motorcycles/Paint%20Jobs/slides/Green%20Praying%20Mantis%20Bike.html
What are the reasons that make you want to buy the Yamaha FZ?
i agree with you …what is the reason ?? just the looks
i had already book fazer limited eddition 15 days back its sexyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
yeah man you said it ITS REAL SEXXY
wow!!!!..yes yamaha!!!!..though i am a cbz xtreme owner
Hi All…
This is called Midnight Special.. and i Jus Booked this bike..
Awaiting for my ride this Diwali…
The Golden Alloys and the Flames are Awesome…
golden!!! looking very funny..seems tat the bike has lost its personality..
Its great to see FZ midnight being launched. So fool of me. I mean I never thought of its realising date. Thanks bikeadvice.in for reminding me.
Yamaha is on the brink of extinction in India. Yamaha lost its mind with ridiculous sale volumes and doing things like a monkey.
nice…….. cool bike
but in mileage its far behind all its category…………. go for it if mileage is not priority for you
hi deepak really the stickering is good but the perfomance of this bike is tooooooo bad
I need a one
hi Deepak,
i’m more of a Fan of Trail/ off road Motor Bike can you give some information on it with the latest price.
Looks cool man I like it.Will wait to see another colour combination by christmas.HH,Suzuki,TVS,Bajaj,Please Buckup guys its getting ”HOT”(compet..)
i dont like this.. that golden rim looks like circus bike.. or road side raoudi….
It looks fantastic, i like it.
Yeah it’s very good looking but it suits only for youth…it’s not good to drive with family….
awesome looks
much better than any other indian bikes…..
very gooooooood.
but Missing disc brake in rear wheel………..
I wish FZ-S should also have a Midnight Edition
FZ-S is also available in this LE, i have it.
Good Job By Yamaha.
i too dont think yamaha is doin wat hh is doin…this is totally differant…this is too awesum…also way better than hyper edge….but i jus wish they could hav did a bit more mechanically for the bike…anyways its all good…peace!
WOW Its My 1 Of The Fav. Bike.
ya itz really good looking. but the only change is stickers not on the other parts of the bike.
colour combination is nice………………yamaha did great job
This is looking very beautiful.
I have seen the bike in near by showroom
Its really good looking with royal looks with the golden touch
Comparing to hero honda yamaha stickers is much better
yamaha is good bykes but indian people not buy because they want milage
No, the previous one, exists in the market is more better than this. Might the young college going students like this, but probably not for us like a man of age group of 35. (At least I didn’t like.) The golden wheels, in the newer condition will look so good, but after a few months , specially after the end of monsoon period, in the city like our Kolkata, it will look like a mess. Black wheels are the Only Solutions.
Way to go Yamaha.. they quickly learned what works with majority of bike-enthusiasts in India.. no points for guessing.. it’s stickering skills & changing color combinations.. Yamaha has far exceeded expectations in this department.
Guys… Its Worth Bike… Only 1000 to b launched… Neve gonna b common..
that’s cool
delevery already started in pune before 5-6 days. one ofm y friend got it before 5 days. he got his bike to college today…looks really cool
i like the sticker art but i don’t like the color combination of stickers.. more bright colors should be used.
tooo gud man!!! really hot one..
looks so nice…….
YES! YAMAHA…………
THIS IS THE LORD OF THE STREET IN ALL MOST EVERY EXPECT……..
FZ SERIES GIVES 0-60 IN 5.2 SEC…. QUICK PICKUP IN 150 CC SEGMENTS…
HANDLING AND CONTROL IS AWESOME …..
MILEAGE IS 45 TO 50 KMPL GOOD FOR FZ SERIES, AFTER HAVING REDIAL TYRE,… ETC..!!
WHICH OF THE 150 CC BIKE IN INDIA HAVING REDIAL TYRE..? (EXCEPT FZ SERIES)
WHO EVER TALKING ABT MILEAGE (IN 150 CC BIKE) JUST PUT REDIAL TYRE IN UR BIKE N CHECK HOW MUCH U GET THE MILEAGE THEN LET ME KNOW THE MILEAGE OF UR BIKE ?
STILL THERE IS MORE QUESTION TO ASK BUT THIS MUCH IS FINE FOR THIS TIME…
( ONE THING CANT MAKE WHOLE PACKAGE BAD..REMEMBER ? )
OVERALL FORM ALL EXPECT FZ BIKE IS REALLY VERY GOOD….
DONOT WHY PPL ALWAYS TRY TO POINT OUT, MOSTLY NEGATIVE POINT OF BIKE ONLY…. ( ANY BIKE BRAND OF INDIA )
YAMAHA FZ- MILEAGE
HH- PERFORMANCE N BRAKING
TVS VIBRATION
BAJAJ HANDLING N CONTROL IN HIGH SPEED
SUZUKI LOW PICK UP N BUILD QUALITY
HONDA PERFORMANCE N CONTROL
AND SO ON…..
BUT GUYS EVERY BIKE (BRANDS) ROCK IN INDIA IN THERE ON WAYZZZ….
ANALYSIS THE WHOLE PACKAGE OF ANY BIKE….!!
COLOUR SCHEME IS THE MARKETING STRATEGY TO EXCITE THE BUYERS TO BUY IT, DONT TAKE IT OTHERWISE…
Yes Mr.. i agree with you…
if want better performance cant expect mileage. but YAMAHA is doing good job now a days… So that I’m purchasing this limited edition.
But the question is.. suppose in future this bike’s stickers & other parts productions would may get stopped. In case its may be the major drawback to the Bike holder.
looking good, want the same thing in fazer
I was great feel yamaha launched FZ s midnight golden alloy
If they are offering it at the same price then it is an added asset to the customer and if not then it is really not worth it since it is a limited edition and procuring parts for the same in future would really be a pain
hey i want colours in fz-s as usual like midnight edition,when they can be released any idea please post me.
Thanks,,,that is really cool color for a more classic and formal.
i recently bought for my son the new Yamaha FZ16 ( Sexy Red Color )
and for him having the first and the only one in our City,,,thats something…
thanks for the latest update,,,more power to you and the Site,,,
Manny
I feel that Yamaha has started to understand the Indian Market just like Hero Honda.
Ram: From when did Hero Honda understand Indian Consumer’s? Doing a bling sticker cum paint job & letting the old model as limited edition? Or just plonking the old Karizma’s engine with a PGM-FI & an oil cooler & selling as ZMR at a premium price point? Not to offend Hero Honda in any way, Yamaha is better in R&D anyday.
Is there any special addition of cb unicorn unicorn dazzler
