I stumbled across this one just by chance this morning while looking for something else and I just couldn’t help myself- so here it is.

These were bad ass back in the day and I would venture to say they can still hold their own with today’s bikes. The 1989 FZR1000’s were much improved over the 1988 versions. One of the more noticeable differences was the addition of a 5.5″ x 17″ rear wheel. The 88’s used a FZR 400 sized 4.5″ x 18″ rear wheel and as you can imagine were no match for the 1000cc 145hp monster motor.

There is a ton of information regarding the FZR1000’s located here so be sure and check it out. This one looks like a true survivor.

Factory pearl white paint with red/blue/black graphics and stripes. Get a bike that nobody else has! Not many around like this, anymore.

Near Excellent ORIGINAL STOCK condition, a few scrapes on side LH plastic body panel becasue it fell over once or twice.
The RH has some scratches from the metal lugs on work boots rubbing on it.
No cracks in farings. There are 3 or 4 small paint chips on the gas tank, but no dents.
Some of the white paint is flaking off the rims. Rims could use a paint job.
Original windscreen is clear with original factory decal. Has some stress cracks from vibration but not noticeable.
I am the 3rd owner and always adult owned. Bike has been in storage since 2004.
The only thing on this bike that is not stock is a brand new K&N Perforamce air filter element.
Brand new battery this year. New factory Yamaha fuel petcock and strainer (old one was leaking).
Seat is in perfect shape. One tiny stress split on the vinyl underneath and you cannot see it.
