Yamaha FJR 1300 reviews

Road this motorcycle for 10 years. Always fun to ride. I never had any troubles with the motorcycle. The low center of gravity and low seating position makes the bike very stable. Acceleration was excellent for a big bike. Show less

I would love to describe my experience with this mptorcycle, but I can't because I never got to see the motorcycle because your algorythem for entry to the sales list was prohibited to me due to my zip code being erroneously ignored . Although my zip code is and has been valid for the 32 yrs I've had it, cycle trader seems to think it doesn't exist for me and consequently refuses to search for my yamaha frjes. Who ever wrote the program should be notified if it's deficiency. I'll continue to search for my yamaha unfortunately without your help. Too bad we couldn't do business. Show less

In 1967, Yamaha introduced the YR-1 as their first ever 350cc street model. The YR-1 Grand Prix was Yamaha's biggest bike to date . Ultra high performance 2 stroke with auto lube oil injection system that mixes the gas and oil automatically! 36 bhp at 7500 rpm! Awesome classic that has kickstart only, effortless and reliable starting every time. Cruises at 80 mph and top speed 100-110 with a quarter mile time 14.0. With a 14 second ET these defeated many a larger capacity bike, they are considered rare today. Although it vibrates a bit, its Fun to ride and has power to spare especially being a two stroke on a street bike, this thing gets up and goes! Basically their Grand Prix racing motorcycle in street legal trim Reviewed in the March 1967 Cycle World magazine. Show less

The vstar 1300 is a great motorcycle with power and reliability that is not matched in its class! Love my 09, 20000 trouble free miles! Mustang seat, ape hangers and Ivan’s tune are some of the upgrades that I have done. You can’t go wrong with these bikes. Show less

These are excellent bikes, I have had no issues with mine at all, starts every time and is extremely comfortable going down the road. I would definitely recommend one to anybody looking for a bike. All around good quality and style. Only recommendation I have is to have the ecu flashed to get rid of fuel cut on deceleration. Show less

I used cycletrader to get an individual seller. This led be to procure a very sound bike. No hassles. Great discussion with bike owner and interaction. I am so happy for the ease of doing business via cycle trader. Show less
