The major subsidiary of Japan's Yamaha Motor Company, the Indian counterpart has embarked the move to increase its production of 153cc FZ to meet the demand. As of now, the UP plant finishes the 350 odd units a day while the need is high and thus the target is fixed at 500 units a day.

There is an inverse proportion to the supply against the production; the company has set a target of nearly 25,000 units for the 4Q of 2008. With the waiting orders of paid-up category numbering 22,000, there seems to be premier run for the bike, with a wait for almost a month's time and in near future it may go upto 50-80 days of wait. 

The company is committed to quality and has no plan for sacrificing the efficiency at the cost of speeding up the production. Ever since its launch in October, the bike could win the hearts of 8000 customers and it is quite scintillating to know that some dealers have dealt the demand by claiming some extra amount up to Rs10 000.

The company has realized the feedback of this model which overtook its own YZF-R15 which is 150cc and witnessed the total sale of 18,000 units since its first launch. Yamaha India Motor Co, is already in the market with its serial of bikes of the caliber of MT01 (1670cc), YZF-R1 (998 cc), Gladiator Type SS & RS (125cc), Gladiator Graffiti (125cc), G5 (106cc), Alba (106cc), and Crux (106cc).

The company sources claim that there is a talk of introducing two more bikes in the 125cc range sometime next year and looking out for the possibilities of gearless scooters. The price of the latest model, 153cc FZ-16 is not a booming one compared to other companies providing the same features.

Gear up Yamaha and win the race.
