Auto Expo Live - Yamaha FZ-S Concept & R15 Special Edition shown
Yamaha showcased the FZ-S Concept and a special edition on the R15 at the Auto Expo.
Yamaha FZ-S Concept
Shown in an icy-blue color, the FZ-S Concept sported a dual-tone color adorning special body graphics. You can see an air inlet mounted right below the tank (this is not seen on the current FZ-S). Towards the rear, we can make out a modified exhaust, newly designed mudguard with registration plate enclosure, and a new taillight of a sharper design.
These design elements could make their way on the refreshed FZ-S, which is being primed for a launch this year.

Yamaha YZF-R15 Special Edition
The Yamaha YZF-R15 special edition was shown in a dual-tone black-gold color scheme, similar to the 'Midnight' special editions launched previously. Apart from golden body graphics and golden alloy rims, the special edition sports a racing exhaust not seen on the current bike.
Yamaha could introduce the special edition of the R15 in the market soon, in a similar configuration. However, our sources have also revealed that the R15 V3.0 is also under development, and the launch is confirmed to take place this year.
