Motorcycle specifications YamahaFZ1 1000 FAZER 2007 Straight back

we've been hoping for a redesign of the Fazer 1000 for some time now - and the 2006 model is it. Yamaha has updated its super-muscular Fazer concept, using the same recipe as for the first version... with all the advantages of today's technology.
First, the engine. It's the same as the 2004-2005 R1, with a more "roadster" adaptation. The boiler delivers 150 hp and almost 11 mkg of torque. Unlike the first FZS 1000, this block is fuel-injected - the old one made do with a carburettor rail. Around this mill, there's serious talk. Similar to that of the FZ6, we discover the same type of die-cast aluminum frame, but much more muscular, an inverted fork, a large reinforced swingarm, 320 mm brake discs and lightened rims (it seems they're the same as those on the R1).... a guarantee of rigor and efficiency in terms of on-road ability.
With the exception of its fork head, which appears to be an evolution of the current FZS, the silhouette of the new FZ1 is a scale-up copy of the FZ6 's design, with that touch of aggressiveness typical of Yam large-displacement bikes. Where the eye remains forbidden is in front of the exhaust and its singular profile. It's not the same profile as that of the 2005 GSX-R 1000, , but it's just as astonishing. what a change!
M.B - manufacturer's photos
Once you get to know it, it's easy to see why this version has had an exceptionally long career. Well-born, with a sharp chassis and efficient braking, the styling is not to be outdone and has aged really well!
And that engine! It pulls hard from mid-range, without impressing, but with a nice suppleness. It's great for winding up quietly, with a very pleasant roar. Of course, if you open the throttle wide, it literally flies up into the rev range. No doubt about it, the 150hp are all there, and very musical throughout the rev range, even in the original configuration!
Protection is very good, especially on the GT version, where the well-designed fairing fulfills its role perfectly. On the other hand, the bubble is a little too small for long motorway journeys. (You don't always have time to take the back roads!)
The position and comfort are perfect for me (1.73m). At a time when the two-wheeled SUV trend is being imposed with road trails, and with the disappearance of Sport-GTs and Routières, I honestly wouldn't know where to turn. I have a lot of trouble with trails, where the front end gets lighter and loses precision at high speeds. I'd gladly take the same one back if it still existed, with modern traction control, ABS, updated braking and cruise control. Oh yes, and for fun, a shifter! And with a model that looks like a motorcycle (doesn't it, MT-10!) Kisses! Rating : 5/5 Respond to TS_Unami

Above all, don't modify the bike without enriching the injection at the risk of losing performance
After modifications, the FZ1 is no more than an R1 street, which begs the question: why did you massacre the 2006 R1 engine? Rating : 5/5 Respond to fafa13015
thank you Rating : 5/5 Respond to seb
1st impression, nice position, not tiring!
Overweight of course, but with practice it's still easy to ride ... be careful at stops and red lights lol
106hp version: not tried, it was already in full 150hp!
It pushes all the time! a real pleasure!
Beware of being a little experienced!
It's a mini R1! (engine, fork, brakes)
The only fault is the pirelli roadsmart tires, which I'm going to change soon!
Otherwise very happy with this beast! Rating : 5/5 Respond to Knightloos
reputed to be poorly electronically bridled -> a jolt when you throttle back, I can't make up my mind as I'm in full throttle (150hp)
Up to 8,000rpm, it's an easy bike to ride, with lots of torque (you can't feel the 150hp), but after that you have to work hard because it's devilish!
I used to have a 600 cbr rr 106hp, but now I've got a more peppy engine, super comfort (original saddles), dual optics: at night it's great, much less tiring riding position, in short I don't regret my choice!
Just one small -
* it consumes a little I find (without driving at the limit of course) 250kms with a full tank ... I thought I'd do 300kms minimum. Rating : 5/5 Respond to Knight
-it's not an evolution but a different bike
-less versatile, more sporty
-not roadworthy at all (wooden seat, tough suspension, protection to be reviewed)
-more sporty (engine both powerful and supple, top brakes, very easy to handle, no steering feedback when cornering)
- licence trap..............
a fun motorcycle, not a reason motorcycle..... Rating : 5/5 Respond to dafy
PS: I hope I won't regret my fz6s! Rating : 5/5 Respond to hatillas
A month later, I decided to take it to my nearest dealer.
What a surprise... a magnificent purr for an original exhaust.
Hop on the track for a 1/2 hour test ride, and from the very first turns of the wheel, the bike proves both powerful and supple, although it's hardly forgiving of mistakes when cornering. the bubble protection is valid up to 160 km/ h, and beyond that, I'm telling you, you've got the visor embedded in your skull. the braking is biting. the riding position is pleasant (wide handlebars), with a seat height well suited to taller riders.
all in all, I was delighted with this test ride, and today I'm the proud owner of a beautiful Bleue.
... my impressions will become more accurate as the miles go by! The road is mine.

The lines are very fluid and the bike is really pretty, but you still have to change the pot and the wheel arch, and that's it. Rating : 5/5 Respond to simbad280
By the way, I find that motorcycles are getting more and more expensive, €10,900 is starting to go a long way. Rating : 5/5 Respond to GREG62
I've fallen for it, it'll be blue and will be my next frame for a few years
Can't wait until mid-March

And yet, with its 4 kg lighter weight (still a long way from the Z1000, for example) and cool looks, it could have been my next bike, but the problem is that it's not a versatile tourer. All right, but let's wait for the tests before making a final judgement. Rating : 5/5 Respond to Jo
I'm putting it up for sale right now: see you at the show for the order form, and the torque and, above all, the watts are mine! (150hp announced for 10.8mkg) It's going to hurt... Rating : 5/5 Respond to motorsport
An 18-liter tank = 300km a bit short for my taste, I do a lot of highway, maybe the injection will reduce the range which is always good to take at the moment! I'm hoping for a low-slung model, because protection isn't exactly top-notch. But it's beautiful, the rear saddle won't please my wife too much though! Rating : 5/5 Respond to Fazeyan
All in all, a very nice becan, and the other roadsters are just cat's-paw ... Rating : 5/5 Respond to alain
Because otherwise, in terms of looks, it's going to look a lot wiser than the new Hornet or the Z1000 :( Rating : 5/5 Respond to Taiju
(I own a 1000 fazer but it's a real pain to get on and off (when stationary) on slopes (e.g. col du tourmalet) and when you're over 20 years old Rating : 5/5 Respond to moto1000
