Yamaha FZ description
2003 FZ1 for sale, one of two special editions offered (one was black/grey, skunk, and one was black/yellow, bee).
On a scale of 1-10, I'd give the condition of the bike a 7. It's got some cosmetic issues, scratches here and there from being laid down twice while going down a gravel driveway, happened at very low speed. The side fairing kit will go with the bike (bought at Yamaha for $900), not currently installed due to needing to repaint the fairings.
Mechanically, the bike is perfect. All regular servicing has been done on time, currently has a new set of spark plugs, a recently oiled K&N air filter, and an oil change with less than 200 miles on it. Yoshi exhaust pipe. Handlebar has been turned upside down to increase comfort and allow the rider to lean slightly more forward, slightly reduces turn radius, easy to turn back upright.
Tires are in decent shape, front looks near new and rear shows wear, I replaced these two seasons ago but have done little riding.
Runs very well, I've never had any issues from this bike.
Plenty of power, doesn't smoke, doesn't leak.
Local Pick Up Only
The reason I'm selling this bike:
When I was young and naive I purchased a 950 cruiser off the showroom floor, two months later I decided it wasn't for me and traded it for this bike, the FZ1. Under the allure of factory financing, I made a deal - the bike was actually financed with a Yamaha credit card at 19.9% interest. I loved my motorcycle several years ago, but I've grown to resent it. I doubled payments for a couple of years and finally paid it off, now I want it gone. I can probably get more for it, but I'm not interested in asking 3-4 thousand like some of the other FZ1's on Craigslist. I know it has cosmetic issues and I'm not interested in looking at it another day.
The picture posted is a stock photo, I'll take more pictures asap.

WSBK 2013: Nurburgring Race Report
Tue, 03 Sep 2013Tom Sykes has taken over the lead in the 2013 World Superbike Championship standings after splitting race victories with Chaz Davies at Germany’s Nurburgring circuit. Both races ended prematurely however with red flags during the final laps. Pata Honda‘s Jonathan Rea and FIXI Crescent Suzuki‘s Leon Camier both crashed on the 18th lap of Race One after running into oil spilled on the track from Pedercini Kawasaki racer Federico Sandi‘s ZX-10R.
Yamaha Quitting World Superbike Racing After 2011 Season
Mon, 01 Aug 2011Yamaha announced it is withdrawing its factory World Superbike Championship race team following the end of the 2011 season. The news comes as a bit of a surprise, just a week after reports the team had re-signed racer Marco Melandri for the 2012 season. On the other hand, the team has struggled to find a title sponsor this season, as has Yamaha’s MotoGP team.
You want a nice little car, you do.
Wed, 08 Sep 2010We ran a couple of stories last week - both, coincidentally, about new Kawasakis. One was the first peek of the new ZX10R – hot stuff you’d imagine – the other, the new W800 retro parallel twin. I suppose it shouldn’t have shocked us, which story was most popular in terms of hits but it really does mark a seismic shifts in British biking attitudes that the W800 story doubled the hits of the ZX10 piece.
