New - Yamaha FZ8 2013: new Race Blu suspensions and colors - Used YAMAHA

Aware that the suspensions of its flagship roadster count both among its strengths and weaknesses (read in particular our comparative test MNC Kawasaki Z750, Suzuki GSR 750 and Yamaha FZ8: the war of the roadsters), Yamaha has decided to leave it to the users the care to choose the sport / comfort compromise for their mount themselves !

The new Yamaha FZ8 in concession early 2013

Asked by Site on the Yamaha stand at the Cologne Intermot Show, the big boss of Yamaha Motor France confirmed to us that the new FZ8s would arrive in dealerships "at the end of January, beginning of February 2013".

"We will try to keep its price at the same level as the current one", also assured us Eric de Seynes, ie around 8,199 euros. To follow naturally closely on MNC: stay connected !

"For 2013, the semi-faired Fazer 8 and Naked FZ8N are fitted with adjustable front and rear suspensions which allow the driver to adapt the chassis to road and load conditions" warn the Blues.

The païlotes who criticized the FZ8 for its lack of rigor in the attack will thus be able to play with the settings of the fork and the rear shock absorber in order to make the Yam ‘limit mass transfers. The rest – hopefully – will be able to continue winding and leisurely scouring without touching the factory settings….

To these new suspensions are added two other novelties for 2013: "transparent indicators and a new silencer which produces new tones and reinforces (again, the engine of the Yam ‘already sounded good, Editor’s note!) The aggressive style of the motorcycle".

Finally, the YZF family (R1, R6 and R125) will not be the only ones to benefit from the superb "Race Blu" livery currently displayed on the track of the Intercontinental Circus by the M1 prototypes of Jorge Lorenzo and Ben Spies..

Yamaha has indeed decided to decline this decoration – "a clever mix of Yamaha Blue and Matt Gray", notes the manufacturer! – on his FZ8 and XJ6. Customers of Vmax, Tmax and Xmax in particular may be a little jealous, no ?
