Yamaha FZ description
2003 FZ1 for sale, one of two special editions offered (one was black/grey, skunk, and one was black/yellow, bee).
On a scale of 1-10, I'd give the condition of the bike a 7. It's got some cosmetic issues, scratches here and there from being laid down twice while going down a gravel driveway, happened at very low speed. The side fairing kit will go with the bike (bought at Yamaha for $900), not currently installed due to needing to repaint the fairings.
Mechanically, the bike is perfect. All regular servicing has been done on time, currently has a new set of spark plugs, a recently oiled K&N air filter, and an oil change with less than 200 miles on it. Yoshi exhaust pipe. Handlebar has been turned upside down to increase comfort and allow the rider to lean slightly more forward, slightly reduces turn radius, easy to turn back upright.
Tires are in decent shape, front looks near new and rear shows wear, I replaced these two seasons ago but have done little riding.
Runs very well, I've never had any issues from this bike.
Plenty of power, doesn't smoke, doesn't leak.
Local Pick Up Only
The reason I'm selling this bike:
When I was young and naive I purchased a 950 cruiser off the showroom floor, two months later I decided it wasn't for me and traded it for this bike, the FZ1. Under the allure of factory financing, I made a deal - the bike was actually financed with a Yamaha credit card at 19.9% interest. I loved my motorcycle several years ago, but I've grown to resent it. I doubled payments for a couple of years and finally paid it off, now I want it gone. I can probably get more for it, but I'm not interested in asking 3-4 thousand like some of the other FZ1's on Craigslist. I know it has cosmetic issues and I'm not interested in looking at it another day.
The picture posted is a stock photo, I'll take more pictures asap.

An Island tour with a legend
Fri, 17 Sep 2010What you are watching is a highlight of Mike Hailwood's segment from the racing documentary Take it to the Limit - A Motorcycle Odyssey. The Yamaha - built by the extraordinary Kel Carruthers - that Hailwood is riding in the clip featured a unique frame with the camera housed within. The voice-over recording provided by Hailwood was done by taping a small mic to the bottom of his lip so he could dictate his guide to the 37.73 mile route.
Yamaha Champions Riding School August Update
Tue, 05 Aug 2014Our friends at the Yamaha Champions Riding School have been busy lately. Since moving to New Jersey Motorsports park in April, traffic has steadily risen, with June being sold out and July not far behind. August is very promising with some new ideas (one-day clinics to bring a more economical program to a larger group of riders) being inserted into the mix as well as a normal two-day school at the end of the month, which is already 80% full thanks to the yearly visit from the engineering department of Harley Davidson. Following August YCRS will have two schools the week directly after the AMA Pro races at NJMP.
Yamaha Trademarks Logos for YZF-R9
Thu, 27 Oct 2022Signs point to an EICMA announcement Ever since we first uncovered evidence of a YZF-R7 based on the MT-07, people started to ask when Yamaha would do the same to the MT-09 and release an YZF-R9 sportbike using the same 890cc Crossplane Triple. The questions picked up a few months later when we dug up trademark filings for a whole range of model names from an R2 to an R9. With the 2023 model launch season in full swing, and EICMA less than two weeks away, we’ve got more fuel for the old rumor engine with two new Yamaha filings, this time for figurative trademarks for “R9” and “YZF-R9.” The trademarks were filed Oct.
