Yamaha FZR 750 Genesis walkaround and rev

Simple walkaround and some moderate revving of my grey import Yamaha FZR 750 Genesis from 1987. Great classic sportsbike. Enjoy!

Hi I just got a 1991 e reg it says fz on the log but it looks the same as this the clocks are kmh with mph overlay.is there any way to tell by the frame engine numbers if it's a import or just been monkeyed about with,cheers?

@akittsy hi, actually it's quite tricky. these are domestic jap releases, so all of them are grey imports. the tricky thing in the story is that they have totally regular FZ750 engines with FZ750 engine ID numbers. this may be the reason for the FZ reg. the frame number though should be FZR750 specific for sure. it does not really matter if it has an engine from an FZ750 as it is totally identical to the original one even if one of the previous owners swapped it. hope it helps! take care

Nice! I have a 1988FZR750RU, which was a homologation special for the US AMA 750 racing series. Only 200 imported, mine was never raced, I am the third owner, 11,875 miles!

Bike looks awesome for an 87

Did the 87 come witha solo seat, that would make it complete!

Nice bike

indeed, thanks for the compliment.

i could not find a rear seat cover for it although it existed, but was really hard to find.

Szia ! Ez a gép 2003-2004-ben az enyém volt. Nem tudod azóta mi lett vele? Ha neked meg van még lehet visszavenném.

Előre is köszi!

How are people telling the guy that owned this bike that it's not a 750? It IS a 750 and HE OWNED IT!!
