Yamaha Other description
Up for sale 1988 FZR 400/600, 1988 FZR400 aluminum frame with FZR600 motor.
The good points of the bike are it is in excellent running condition, with a good motor, transmission, and drive. The suspension on this bike is EXCELLENT, with Racetech cartridge emulators and .90 springs in the front, and a genuine Ohlins shock absorber on the rear. Brake upgraded with early R6 master cylinder, blue dot calipers, and EBC brake rotors. Can include original brake calipers and master if winning bidder desires. Bike has a Corbin one piece seat, OEM two piece seat included. Bike also has a generic linear steering damper fitted on the left side. Motor also has a Vance and Hines PowerPack ignition controller; it bypasses the spark controller (much like a Power Commander bypasses the ECU on a modern bike) and gives you a choice of four ignition curves (stock, street, road race, and drag race) and 4 alternate rev limiters. Has a nice Vance and Hines SS2R pipe. All of the locks work and match!
Neutral points: The bike needs a good detailing. Has Renthal sprockets, but they are worn. Bike has a clean, aftermarket top triple with risers for straight bars. Set up as it is with these upright bars and Corbin seat, it is very comfortable for such a small bike, but I don't have the original triple and clip ons, so if you want to race or track it you might want to invest in those. Fortunately FZR600 triple trees and clip ons are identical, so they should be dirt cheap.
The bad: The Deltabox stick-on logos on the frame are missing, and the bodywork is not very nice. I have some spare bits, but OEM lowers don't fit around the FZR600 headers.
Extras: Since the awesome suspension makes this a great cheap track bike, I will include at no extra cost a complete set of race bodywork, consisting of a well-used but serviceable Airtech upper, lower, and tank cover, and a brand new, virgin, undrilled, Sharkskinz tail.
Bike would make a nice streetfighter/commuter, restoration project, or slap some clip ons and the included race bodywork on (maybe source you an original 400 motor) and it would be great as a cheap track bike or AHRMA racer. It is titled in my name and street legal.
Distant buyers, it is your responsibility to arrange pickup or crating/shipping at your own expense. $250 deposit due via Paypal immediately upon purchase. Thanks for looking and good luck

The Japanese oddity to naming teams
Wed, 28 Jul 2010Whenever the calendar shifts to a major Japanese race, such as the Suzuka 8hr, one of the more amusing things to do is glance down the team sheet This years highlight for me has to be team Moto Bum, with other stand outs including aprilia D.D.BOYS, Team Etching Factory Yamaha and MITO MOTO & e'freaks Honda. Looking back through the ages some of the great Japanese team names have been Burning Blood Racing Team, Dog Fight Racing and Team Moto Space amongst others.

Wed, 17 Apr 2013This weekend, the MotoGP circus makes its way to the United States for round two of the world championship, held at the stunning new Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas, the first time the track will host a world championship level motorcycle event. Expect to see the world’s fastest racebikes reach speeds over 200 mph on the 1 km (0.62-mile) back straight, and bring ear plugs — these bikes are loud! Fresh off a 1-2 finish in the season opener in Qatar, Jorge Lorenzo and Valentino Rossi are looking to carry the momentum to CotA.
2023 Yamaha Niken GT First Look
Mon, 07 Nov 2022Bigger engine, new saddlebags, and updated electronics This just in from Yamaha Europe, whether this applies Stateside remains to be seen: For 2023, Yamaha has updated the Niken in just about every area of the bike. The high points include the engine, TFT functionality, and suspension. Since the company considers the Niken to be “one of Yamaha’s most sophisticated Sport Tourers,” the emphasis on improving the quality of the rider’s experience should come as no surprise.
