Check out his ownership experience in the video below:
In case you missed the technical specifications, the Yamaha FZ1 uses the same 998 cc, liquid-cooled, 20-valve, DOHC, in-line four-cylinder engine as the previous generation YZF-R1. The engine on the roadster is tuned to deliver 150 hp of power @ 11,000 rpm and 106.8 Nm of torque @ 8,000 rotations and comes mated to a six-speed transmission.
