The Yamaha FZR1000 was produced by Yamaha from 1987 to 1995. Classed as a ‘sports bike’, the FZR1000 was generally regarded as the world's finest production sports motorcycle at that time, and in its 1989 FZR1000R incarnation, the engine produced over 140hp with class-leading handling to match. The FZR1000R won ‘Bike of the Year’ throughout the motorcycle press and was crowned the "Bike of the Decade" by Cycle World. The machine was continually updated throughout its lifetime and continued to collect awards through the early 1990s. The big new feature was the Exhaust Ultimate Powervalve (EXUP) to smooth out power delivery.
This FZR1000 has had little use due to being part of a static collection of Japanese machines. In ‘as-purchased’ condition and has been running and some work has been carried out, but some further recommissioning may be required before road use. Please note that the engine number is different from that shown on the V5 Registration Document.
