February
Visordown.com features an article by Rob Hoyles about the 2006 Yamaha FZ 1.
But what does it go like? Unsurprisingly, the combination of more power and less weight equals faster motorcycle. The new FZ-1 and FZ-1 Fazer both boast 150bhp and weigh in at 198kg and 204kg respectively, which adds up to a power increase of 7bhp and a considerable weight loss from the outgoing model’s 208kg.
Put into layman’s terms, the naked bike is over one-and-half stones lighter, the faired version just over half-a-stone lighter. Right, that’s the techy part out of the way, onto the riding.
