Specifications
Weight is a main distinguishing factor when one wants to differentiate this FJ from other latter-day lighter models. The machine weighs 588 pounds, making it a heavier model compared to most motorcycles in the racer category. The stretch of its wheelbase is 58.7 inches, a dimension that is also wider compared to that of other models. On average, most models have a wheelbase of 57 inches.
Its dashboard looks like that of a Porsche. In it are three main instruments: a fuel gauge, a speedometer and a tachometer. These instruments light up with an orange color at night. There is also a watch on the dashboard. For 5.8 gallons, this bike can take you through 250 miles. This is longer than most riders can often cover.
The suspension upgrade recently made to this Yamaha is of the “programmed” variety and is positioned at both ends. The preload adjuster of the fork can be twisted in order to alter patterns of rebound as well as compression dumping. The handles are made in such a way that they are easy to hold. It is rather comfy when you get used to riding on it.
