An ideal winter recommissioning project

The Yamaha Motor Co. was formed in 1955 as the powered vehicle division of the massive Yamaha Corporation more famous for making musical instruments. The first bike produced in 1954 was the YA-1, like the BSA Bantam a copy of the German-made DKW RT125 but in typical Japanese fashion this was soon improved upon with the launch of the YA-2 in 1957. This proved to be an immediate success in sporting events, starting a long tradition of achievement that continues today in Moto GP and WSBk racing. The FZ/ FZR range was launched with the FZ750 in 1985 in answer to Suzuki's trendsetting GSXr750. The FZR1000 Genesis first came to market in 1987 and the major feature was in a new aluminum perimeter type frame, marketed as the 'Deltabox'. Although there was experience in using aluminum Deltabox frames on race machines, this would be its first application on such a large production road-going machine.

This FZR1000 was bought by the vendor in 1998 having been imported from Japan by Fastline. In his time of ownership he has fitted a Wiseco 1040cc big bore kit together with a Barnett Kevlar clutch and a Leo Vinci end can. The original Yamaha can comes supplied with the bike as well as some old MOTs and a current V5C. Stood for a while due to lack of time and space this essentially original Geneseis will make an ideal winter rebuild or restomod project.
