Is Yamaha no selling the FZ1 fazer anymore ?? - chaparral02 - 10-04-13
My local Yamaha dealer told me that Yamaha is fading out the FZ1 fazer....
And looking on the Yamaha UK website I no see it listed on there anymore..

I've been told that's actually true, they are dropping the FZ1 to promote the Fazer 8 which is popular over seas for some reason.

FZ1 fazer = £ 10,199.00
FZ8 fazer = £7,999.00
FZ1 naked = £9,199.00
FZ8 naked = £6,999.00

Tis a sad day indeed if the 1 is dead
Re: Is Yamaha no selling the FZ1 fazer anymore ?? - sure2ride - 16-04-13
If it wasn't for my back problem which means the FZS1000 Gen 1 just got too heavy for me to lumber around, I'd still have one :lol
They are stonking bikes. Gen 2 thous are fine too, but the 8 suite me best now, and I like it, but it will never be Gen 1 Thou. Still, I'm gonna tkeep that thought a secret.....doh! :rolleyes
See, now everybody is happy.

What I don't understand is the price difference. What components on the 1000 would cost over £2200???
Absolutely mad they charge so much for the Thou'. If the 800 can be sold at a profit then the 1000could be way cheaper?
Just a thought.

Re: Is Yamaha no selling the FZ1 fazer anymore ?? - locksmith - 18-04-13
So is that good news for the value of my FZ1S ?
Re: Is Yamaha no selling the FZ1 fazer anymore ?? - Phil - 21-04-13

Its back on the list, I spotted it whilst looking at the MT-09.
http://www.yamaha-motor.eu/uk/products/motorcycles/fz-series/fz1-fazer.aspx
Guess the MT-1100 isn't ready yet, they are knocking out bigger tanks.
