Yamaha FZ25 vs Ducati Panigale V4 Comparison

The Yamaha FZ 25 is the most affordable motorycle in the segment and is well-known for its reliability and overall performance. The Yamaha guarantee of speed and safety is aptly combined in this motorcycle and the high fuel efficiency figures makes it a compelling prospect. Overall, as a value for money product in the 250 cc motorcycle segment, the FZ 25 makes for a compelling case, but is let down by lack of entertaining performance and exciting design.

The new Ducati Panigale V4 S has that innate quality that makes a 200-plus bhp superbike very accessible and safe around a racetrack. Sure, it's not made for less experienced riders new to litre-class superbikes, and despite the state-of-the-art electronics package, one wrong twist of the wrist can make things go wrong very quickly; after all, all that power and torque over a wide rev range is not to be fooled with, or taken lightly, by any standard.
