“The Fazer”
OUR MOTORBIKES:
THE WHEELS TO RIDE
YOUR DREAM TRIP.
The Yamaha FZX 750 made its debut in 1986 within the Japanese domestic market, positioned as a “younger sibling” to the Yamaha Vmax 1200. While primarily intended for the Japanese audience, it also found its way to European shores. A limited presence was established in the United States, but the North American versions featured engines with capacities below 700 cm³, due to import regulations on larger displacement motorcycles.
Beyond Japan, models were designated as Yamaha FZX750 Fazer, denoting an attachment of the Fazer name. European editions were distinctively marked by their Apple Red color, except for the 1993 French versions which sported Dark Grayish Blue Metallic. The Japanese variations, classified under the first generation as Orion Silver and the second as Dark Grayish Blue Metallic, adhered to specific colors. The final year of production in Japan saw the bike adorned in New Silver Dust, while export iterations were devoid of a seat cowl and included an additional passenger handle
A SYMPHONY OF ELEGANCE AND
STRENGTH, THE 96 HORSE POWER
WONDER UNVEILS ITS BEAUTY
THROUGH EVERY LINE.
A pronounced divergence between the European and Japanese variants lay in engine power. The Yamaha FZX750 Fazer’s maximum stated power in Europe reached 96 hp, surpassing the 77 hp mark in Japan. (Japanese versions attained their full torque at 6000 rpm, unlike the 8000 rpm on European models). Furthermore, not all European editions of the Yamaha FZX750 Fazer possessed full power, with only 1UF, 2AK, and 3MU engines enjoying this distinction.
