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. 

Comes with two,like new, black and yellow Fulmer helmets with chrome tinted visors, sizes 2X and Med.
2X has been worn maybe a dozen times, Med worn once.
Also comes with large Joe Rocket leather jacket, with padded inserts.

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.

2003 FZS1000 (FZ1, Special Edition)

The overall condition of the bike, on a scale of 1-10, is a strong 7. Aside from a few minor cosmetic issues, the bike is mechanical perfect. Featuring a recent service - new plugs, new oil and filter, fresh oil on K&N air filter. The cosmetic issues are minor scuffs and scrapes and are pictured.

  • 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. 
  • Yoshimura Race Pipe
  • K&N Air Filter
  • Two, like new, black and yellow Fulmer helmets with chrome tinted visors, sizes 2X and Med.
  • XL Joe Rocket leather jacket, with padded inserts.

I simply do not need this motorcycle anymore, local pick up only.

Yamaha Files Trademark Application for FJ-09

Mon, 03 Mar 2014

Yamaha‘s next three-cylinder motorcycle may be a sport-tourer, if a recently-filed trademark application is any indication. The Tuning Fork brand filed a trademark application with the United States Patent and Trademark Office for the name “FJ-09” as it applies to “Motorcycles, scooters, three-wheeled scooters and structural parts for all the aforesaid goods.” Following Yamaha’s usual naming conventions, the signs indicate the trademark will be for a new sport-touring model using the same Triple as the FZ-09. Yamaha has made it clear it plans to introduce more three-cylinder engines following the FZ-09 (or MT-09, as it is known in Europe.) Previously-filed trademark applications for the YZF-R3 and R3 names raised speculation the next triple would be a sportbike, but as per Yamaha’s usual naming convention, the “3″ in R3 is likelier to refer to the engine displacement rather than the number of cylinders.
