Yamaha FZ-1 Fazer
Real-world performance that will make your everyday ride extraordinary... The Yamaha FZ1 is a cutting edge sport bike with a twist. Unlike most other machines in this class, the Yamaha FZ1 features state of the art engine and chassis designs. The twist is you do not have to sacrifice performance or handling to gain excellent rider and passenger comfort... the FZ1 offers it all! From Twisties to Touring Think of the Yamaha FZ1 as an upright R1 ready to take on the world. There's more fuel-injected power in that smooth 20 valve four-cylinder than most riders will ever use, in a sure fotted chassis. It's a rider's best ally, from track days, to commuting, to touring. Crunch the numbers, do the math and then take a
seat aboard one of the world's best "naked" sport bikes. Yamaha FZ1 Key Features Yamaha FZ1 Features and Benefits Engine: •Ultra-lightweight 998cc, DOHC, 20-valve, liquid-cooled, 40 degree inclined, in-line four-cylinder engine. The engine has been tuned to provide outstanding performance and excellent passing performance. •The crankcases, pistons, cylinder and cylinder head are based on the 3rd generation R1 powerplant ('04 to '06). •Combustion chamber design and squish area has
been optimized for maximum sports performance. The compression ratio for the FZ1
is 11.5:1. Redline is set at 12,000 rpm and features a "soft" rev limiter to
protect the engine. •Automatic cam chain tensioner reduces both
maintenance and mechanical engine noise. •Closed deck cylinder design allows the cylinders
to be spaced more closely together, allowing a narrower engine. The cylinder
block is a stand-alone part. The benefit if this design is improved sealing, and
easier serviceability.
•Short skirt, lightweight forged pistons reduce mechanical vibration and improve
throttle response. •Smooth shifting 6-speed transmission features optimized gear ratios for maximum performance in the "real world". 5th and 6th ratios are wider (taller) for reduced engine rpms at highway speeds for more relaxed cruising. •Compact, heavy duty, multi-plate clutch ensures consistent, positive engagement and uses coil springs (5) and paper based fiber plates (9) to reduce weight. •Mikuni fuel injection system is based on the 2006 R1 design, featuring 45mm throttle bodies fitted with T.P.S. (Throttle Position Sensor). This style of fuel injection uses dual throttle valves. The secondary or sub throttle valves are motor driven and control the intake air volume for optimum throttle response. •The actual injectors are Denso "long nose" type injectors with a high dynamic range and 4-spray holes for excellent power and response across the entire rev range. •Specially designed 8.2-liter air box with intake air temperature sensor maximizes performance. A viscous paper-type air filter is utilized.
•High-efficiency curved radiator features compact dual ring-type fans for maximum cooling efficiency. This rad and fan design produces more airflow than conventional flat design rads to maintain optimum engine temperatures for consistent power output. The curved design also allows a shorter wheelbase. •Large, liquid-cooled oil cooler maintains stable lubricant temperatures for extended engine life. Convenient spin-off oil filter is used. •Convenient clutch cover sightglass ensures easy oil level inspection. •Maintenance-free transistor-controlled ignition
(TCI) ensures fast starts and great performance at all rpms. Chassis and Suspension: •Die cast lightweight aluminum twin spar frame provides an optimized rigidity balance for incredible sports handling. The engine is a stressed member of the chassis, allowing a lighter main frame design without sacrificing stability and light, agile handling qualities. •The riding position which is one of the most important features of the FZ1, it offers a balance between a sporty riding position and great rider comfort. •Key chassis geometry figures include: 51% front
and 49 % rear weight balance, 25 degrees of rake and 109 mm of trail. The 47
degree lean angle highlights the FZ1 sporty side. •Lightweight aluminum upper triple clamp features a 25mm offset for sportier handling. •Link-type Monocross rear suspension features an
adjustable Kayaba shock that allows the rider to tailor suspension settings to
match load and road conditions. Adjustments include 7 - way spring preload, and
12-way rebound damping. Rear wheel travel is 130mm or 5.1" •245mm rear disc is squeezed by a lightweight single piston slide-type Nissin caliper with sintered metal brake pads. •Lightweight cast-aluminum 5-spoke wheels reduce unsprung weight for great handling characteristics. The front wheel is an MT3.50-17 and is fitted with competition-spec 120/70-ZR17 tire, while the rear wheel is a MT6.00-17 fitted with a wide 190/50-ZR17 rear radial. •Eye catching, half fairing offers surprisingly good wind and weather protection. It features R1 inspired dual "cat eye" halogen headlights. •Conventional handlebar design features a more
upright riding position for maximum everyday comfort. Handlebar is mounted above
the top triple clamp. •Separate rider and passenger seats offers exceptional solo or two-up comfort. •One-piece instrumentation features analog tachometer, digital speedometer, dual tripmeters, fuel gauge, clock and new outside air temperature display. The back lighting on the instrument can be adjusted to suit the rider's preference. Additional Features: •Low fuel warning light •Lockable steering
