Post Listing Update: This FZ did not get any interest at the asking price of $3,500.
Sport bikes and other technologies derived from racing employ the most cutting edge hardware available. In 1986, the Yamaha FZ600 was the best Yamaha had to offer in the exploding supersport class. The motor had been developed over the 80s, the suspension was adjustable, and it was 30lbs lighter than its Ninja competition. Next time you see an R6, see this paint scheme.
We all had a specific bike on our walls as a kid, and for this owner, the Yamaha FZ600 was it. Unfortunately it is time to part ways after 11,163 miles, a day we all swear will never come. The listing suggests regular maintenance including spark plugs, fluids, and carburetor cleaning has been done. According to the pictures, the paint looks way too nice to have been stored outdoors, reinforcing the claim that this machine was well cared for. For more on the FZ600, check out this 1986 review from Cycle World that’s been rehosted on Motorcycle Specs.
