Yamaha FZ description

Up for sale is a 2008 Yamaha FZ1.  Graphite Gray with 6,714 miles.  Adult owned.  Never dropped, never down, garage stored and responsibly ridden.  Bike is in excellent condition with a clear title.

Bike shows minimal signs of wear.  Aside from light scuffing on the mirror and left radiator guard from storage (pictures attached), it is immaculate.  

Everything on the bike is stock with the exception of a Delkevic Carbon Slip-On (short can), a Fender Eliminator Kit, and Rear Indicators.  I still have the original silencer, fender, and indicators that can be included in the sale should potential buyers be interested in the OEM parts.

I put in new oil, a new oil filter, and a new battery just prior to listing.  The bike is ready to ride.

This is a very versatile machine.  It is an excellent street bike as is, can be fitted with panniers as a tourer, and can do track days with ease.  It is also worth noting that the insurance premiums on this bike are much more affordable than that of the supersports.  For me, this was a very pleasant surprise, considering its power.  

Having previously owned a ZX6-R and an R6, this has been my favorite bike.  It has Yamaha's powerful R1 motor, but tuned for low end torque and midrange power.  Paired with the comfortable ergonomics, this makes for an excellent bike for street riding.  Not once did my wrists become uncomfortable.  It is an excellent choice for anyone who wants a sportbike but is apprehensive about their uncomfortable riding position.

As stated, it is in excellent condition.  Pictures do not do it justice.  It has that beautiful "naked" sportbike look and the exhaust is deep and throaty.  It looks and sounds great.  

I am happy to answer any questions, so do not hesitate to ask.

Buyer is responsible for vehicle pick up or shipping.  Immediate deposit of $500 required (PayPal), with the remainder to be paid by Cashier's Check or Certified Check upon pickup. 

Bike is for sale locally.  I reserve the right to remove this listing at anytime.

The horrendous reality of restoring a 'classic'

Tue, 31 Aug 2010

It was with much excitement – displaced or not – that my freshly rebuilt 1976 SR500 Yamaha fired into life at the second kick this weekend. I say second kick. It was actually the thirty second kick – thirty of those spent frothing up a heady sweat until I realised the main fuel pipe was kinked to buggery.

How do 1000s compare to the 800s

Wed, 09 Nov 2011

Now MotoGP has completed its transformation from 800 to 1000cc, how do the lap times between the different bikes compare using Valencia and the post-season test as a benchmark.. Yesterday, Dani Pedrosa was the quickest 1000 on his Honda RC213V setting a time of 1:32.186. To find the quickest time from the outgoing 800 era you have to look at his current Repsol Honda team-mate, Casey Stoner, but it wasn't set on a Honda.
