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.

2015 Yamaha FZ-07 Announced for Canada

Tue, 18 Mar 2014

Yamaha announced it would import the MT-07 to Canada as the 2015 FZ-07. Until now, the twin-cylinder roadster had only been announced for Europe as the MT-07; there is no word the FZ-07 will be offered in the U.S., but the Canadian announcement is a good sign it may be coming soon. Revealed at EICMA, the FZ-07 slots in under the three-cylinder FZ-09 (known as the MT-09 outside of the North America) with a newly-developed liquid-cooled 689cc parallel-Twin engine.
