This magnificent 2007 Yamaha FZ1 has been meticulously taken care of, is in marvellous shape, has never been wrecked and is garage stored in rough weather! It not only runs, shifts and rides great but it was raced in Prince Edward Island on a regular basis and can flat out fly! Watch a video on YouTube of an almost identical FZ1 doing 277 km/h (173 miles per hour)!!! Market ValueThe current market value according to Kelley Blue Book on this bike is USD $4,885 / CAD $6,325 if it has an "expected accumulated mileage" of 26,040 miles / 41,664 kilometres on it. HOWEVER, this particular bike is in magnificent condition and has just 21,250 miles / 34,000 km making it even more valuable and perhaps worth USD$5,985 / CAD $7,750!!!We are asking $5,250 or best offer and will include the original handle bars (replaced with racing handle bars), original owner's manual and repair pro service manual CD-ROM. However, we will also consider trades for interesting items (gold and silver bullion, rare high-end collectibles, etc.,.) if the value works, so don't delay, contact us today!Specs Engine Type: 998cc, liquid-cooled, 20-valve, DOHC, inline four-cylinder Bore x Stroke: 77 x 53.6mm Compression Ratio: 11.5:1 Carburetion: Fuel injection Ignition: Digital TCI Max Power: 150 hp @ 10000 rpm Max Torque: 106 Nm @ 11000 rpm Transmission: 6-speed w/multi-plate clutch Final Drive: O-ring chain Standing ¼ Mile: 11.1 sec Top Speed: 277 km/h Chassis Suspension/Front: 43mm telescopic fork w/adjustable preload, compression and rebound damping; 5.1" travel Suspension/Rear: Single shock w/ piggyback reservoir; adjustable spring preload and rebound damping; 5.1" travel Brakes/Front: Dual 320mm floating discs w/4-piston calipers Brakes/Rear: 245mm disc w/single-piston caliper Tires/Front: 120/70-ZR17 Tires/Rear: 190/50-ZR17 Dimensions Length: 84.3" Width: 30.3" Height: 47.4" Seat Height: 32.1" Wheelbase: 57.5" Rake (Caster Angle): 25.0° Trail: 4.3" Fuel Capacity: 4.75 gal. Oil Capacity (with oil filter change): 3.8 L Dry Weight: 438 lbs.Key Features This ultimate street brawler brings 998cc of fuel-injected R1 power to the fray, in a light and strong aluminum frame. Sculpted fuel tank and a real-live handlebar move the rider forward for aggressive naked-bike excitement. Adjustable suspension at both ends lets the FZ1 be dialed in for a wide range of uses—everything from track days to urban assault to sport touring. Engine: 998cc DOHC 20-valve R1 engine is tuned for tremendous mid-range punch and massive top-end power. R1-style fuel injection with computer-controlled sub-throttle valves provides precise fuel/air mixture for superb power delivery across the entire rev range. Closed-deck cylinder block provides great strength while allowing a narrow engine in spite of big, 77mm bores. Narrow-angle five-valve combustion chambers produce a highly efficient 11.5:1 compression ratio. Big valves and high-lift cams flow plenty of air. Carburized connecting rods with fractured big ends produce a quick-revving engine with excellent high-rpm durability. High silicon-content ceramic-composite cylinder sleeves ensure great heat dissipation for consistent power delivery and reduced friction. Four-into-one chamberless short-style exhaust contains stainless steel EXUP and three-way catalyst with O2 sensor for outstanding power delivery throughout the rev range and low emissions. Curved high-capacity radiator with twin ring-style fans keeps everything cool under all conditions.Chassis/Suspension: Aggressive chassis geometry for quick handling: the engine’s shoved forward for excellent handling. Aggressive ergos: 4.75-gallon tank moves the rider forward into a position of total control—supersport-like 51 percent front wheel weight bias means confident, quick handling. Light and rigid aluminum frame uses a special mold casting technique that allowed engineers to minutely vary metal thicknesses for optimal rigidity throughout. Stressed-engine design holds the engine in place with six mounts, for excellent vertical stiffness and handling. Two-inch longer and more rigid Controlled Fill aluminum swingarm reduces drive chain-induced suspension movement for excellent handling, tire grip and looks. 43mm fully adjustable inverted fork contains compression damping circuitry in the left leg and rebound in the right—proven effective on the YZR-M1 MotoGP bike—as well as stiffer springs for excellent handling. Two 320mm front discs squeezed by monoblock four-piston calipers and a single 245mm rear disc serve up strong stopping power. Removable subframe for easy maintenance, and detachable passenger footpeg mounts for even more stripped-down style. Light, R1-spec five-spoke wheels and fat radial tires, including a 190/50-ZR17 rear, complete the look and serve up the traction. Additional Features: Fairing features a half-cowl design with R1-style headlight layout that creates a super-aggressive naked bike profile. High-tech instrument display features analog tachometer, digital speedometer, etc.—also a fade-in lighting feature with adjustable brightness. Two-piece seat serves up great comfort along with total control. Passenger grabrails for riding comfort. Durable O-ring-sealed drive chain provides longer chain life. Dual 12V 60/55-watt multireflector headlight features a sleek, R1-type profile for superb aerodynamics and visibility. MOTOUSA REVIEWIn describing the Yamaha FZ1, it would be inconceivable to start anywhere other than the motor, which in case you haven’t had it pounded into your head yet, is based on the R1 powerplant. The 998cc Inline-Four motor achieves its displacement courtesy of a 77mm bore, 53.6mm stroke and utilizes the pre-2007 R1’s 20-valve (five-valve-per-cylinder) configuration. On the dyno the FZ1 flexed its juice-free four-cylinder muscle by taking top honors in peak horsepower with an impressive 129.3 at 11,500 rpm and second-place in the torque courtesy of a bulging 66.2 lb-ft at 9,500 rpm. The FZ1 means serious business in a Clark Kent sort of way. The real world application on the pavement is a broad, linear powerband which climbs steady all the way up to its peak – a full thousand rpm further than any of its rivals. The ultra-refined, polished feel is somewhat misleading because the further that needle climbs up the tach, the more and more the Yamaha resembles a rocket ship. At the strip the FZ1 might not be super hero-esque but a 10.6 at 130 mph is nothing to be ashamed of. That is a wee-bit quicker than the S4R and considerably faster than the defending class champion Tuono as well. The fuel-injected motor runs so smooth from top to bottom that it was almost possible to stick the Fazer in second and ride it like a high-speed scooter on the track. Chugging smoothly thru low-speed corners then twisting the throttle and calling in some of those 130 ponies for a jaunt on the straights will keep a kid grinning big time. Throttle response is as seamless as the power delivery. You’d have to be a first-degree ignoramus to get lost in the precise, forgiving gearbox. TERMS1.
