Yamaha FJR1300
Has Yamaha done enough for the competitors with its Yamaha FJR1300??
Although FJR1300 is same as of its previous FJR, but it seems that it is more comfortable and trendy for the generation.
Price (estimated) : $21498
Availability: January 2013
Review:
With 1298 cc inline four cylinder engine Yamaha FJR1300 emits horsepower
of 146 bhp and claimed torque of 102 ftlb. The fuel capacity is 25
litres and owners can expect almost 500 km range from the 25 litre tank.
On paper, it looks like the new 2013 FJR1300 is the more of the same, bar some nips, tucks and electronic pick-me-ups, but it’s going to be around £1500 cheaper than the old model.
Facelifts can be disproportionately
effective, as Suzuki’s 2012 V-Strom has shown, and the Yamaha does fight
back well. The engine has gained 3bhp and an increase in output across
its range, but it’s not substantial and it doesn’t change the basic
shape of the torque curve, which is needed.
