Yamaha FZ description
2005 Yamaha FZ 1, For the rider who likes sportbike performance but prefers more comfortable ergonomics. The FZ1 offers a more traditional upright seating position, yet sacrifices nothing in terms of engine and handling performance. Sometimes it feels sinful to hide an engine like the R1 derived, 20-valve, Genesis powerplant behind bodywork ... hence the FZ1.
Our naked bike, though, is fully decked out:
Fully adjustable suspension at both ends
Four-piston monoblock calipers
Light, three-spoke aluminum wheels
Wide, high-performance tires
The same semi-upright ergonomics that make dawn `til dusk rides not just possible but highly enjoyable also provide great leverage when the road turns twisty. In the end, you can come at it from either direction: practical transportation, or 140-horse sportbike
