YAMAHA FZ1N - born from the DNA of Yamaha’s cutting edge YZF-R1

  • 8 years ago
The FZ1N will do 143km/h in first gear, it has six. It turns a leisurely 4000rpm at 110km/h and it revs to 12,000rpm. Clearly dropping a couple of teeth on the front sprocket is going to inject much more zest and excitement into the FZ1N experience.

Sure, the FZ1N still pulls fairly well off the bottom end smoothly on standard gearing, but not enough to really stir the soul. This is a nakedbike man! We want some attitude when we hit the go grip.
