Yamaha FZ description

2008 Yamaha Fz1 , Selling my 2008 Yamaha FZ1. Dark Metallic Gray. 12,000 miles. Selling for $5,999. Amazing bike! Has the engine and performance of the R1, except with a much more comfortable riding position! Getting married and it's a bitter sweet day that I finally have to let go of her.....the motorcycle that is.... All Stock. Only modifications are a windscreen, rear fender eliminator, and Frame sliders which bolt on to the stock bolts. Never been down or tipped over. Garage kept for her entire life. Like new. Switched to synthetic oil, all regular maintenance done through dealer. Paper work/logs/receipts available to buyer electronically upon purchase. Questions happily answered by email. Additional information about the model pasted below. *********************************************** :// /wiki/Yamaha_FZ1#2008_revision Generation II (since 2006)[edit] 2006 saw the introduction of a completely new model. The main changes included a new chassis, suspension, body work and a completely new engine, never seen before in the big Fazer. Cast aluminum die-cast diamond-shaped frame with the engine as stressed member replaced the older tubular steel frame along with a control-filled die-cast swingarm. This brought the bike up to date with modern rivals. The new model has a 998 cc DOHC 20-valve engine from the 2004--2006 R1 tuned for better midrange torque, set in an all-new compact diamond-shaped aluminum frame. Most of this engine is identical to the sister YZF-R1's. The primary internal changes are a 40 percent heavier crankshaft and revised balance shaft. New camshafts with reduced lift and duration aim to boost performance at lower revs, and the gearbox's top two ratios are taller to give a more relaxed feel at cruising speeds. 2006 revision[edit] Stiff rear spring with a 700 lb/in 2006 version when first introduced had distinct throttle snatch at 5000--6000 rpm, where rolling off the throttle and rolling back on caused a distinct surge in acceleration due to faster opening of the sub-throttle plates or secondary flies. 2007 revision[edit] Yamaha also softened the rear shock spring. Fuel Injection updated. From 2007 onwards Yamaha solved the throttle snatch issue by slowing the rate at which the secondary flies were being opened. 2008 revision[edit] The 2008 model is technically unchanged from 2007. $5,999.00

2013 Yamaha YZF-R6 Color and Graphic Options Announced

Thu, 13 Sep 2012

Those of you hoping for an updated Yamaha YZF-R6 will have to wait for at least another year, as Yamaha announced the 599cc sportbike is returning for 2013 unchanged except for new colors and graphics. Yamaha last updated the R6 in 2008, equipping it with the company’s Yamaha Chip Controlled Intake (YCC-T) variable-length intake system. The lack of any significant updates to the 2013 R6 must be disappointing to Yamaha fans, especially as the color updates were announced the same day Kawasaki is expected to reveal a new 636cc ZX-6R.
