This Yamaha is not just a simple sports bike; it is the technological front window of the company’s knowledge.
Yamaha didn’t go halfway with the production of this FRZ 750 R, which is no other than a superbike championship machine barely disguised as a street-legal motorcycle.
The Yamaha FZR750R is a purebred racing motorcycle down to the smallest details. Its name – OW 01 – comes directly from the Grand Prix machines, called OW.
Where the name and overall design of the FZR-R were similar to the standard FZR, the FZR-R was no comparison to the regular models.
The FZR-R adopted a Genesis engine with 5 valves per cylinder. With its square measurements, this engine allowed for the fitting of larger valves, make the engine more compact and increase the maximum rpm.
The titanium rods and lighter crankshaft reduce the engine’s inertia and allow it to reach 13,000 rpm.
The two air intakes atop the flare conduct the cool air to a ramp of 4 flat carburetors.
One of the most interesting aspects of the FRZ 750 R is the use of the EXUP system. This electronic system analyzes the pressure of exhaust gas and action a valve, allowing for the engine to react smoothly and increase torque at low and high revs. This system is particularly efficient and develops 120hp.
The Deltabox frame is also an all-new innovation. Built from two huge aluminum arms, these are welded onto the rest of the frame. In comparison to the FZR750, the lower frame arms disappeared since the engine solidifies the whole motorcycle.
The rear arm is controlled by a single adjustable Ohlins spring. It is also possible to change the motorcycle’s balance without changing the settings because one can change the top fixation of the spring. The wheelbase can also be adjusted since there are different anchor points for the rear wheel. Along with all these technological refinements, the front fork is an adjustable 43mm element, braking power come from 320mm floating discs and 4-pistons calipers. The wheels are 17” with 120 and 170 tires.

This exceptional Yamaha FZR 750-R is a unique opportunity to acquire what probably is the last brand-new example of this iconic sports bike, since it has only covered 54km since it left the factory.
Delivered new to its current owner in 1989, it joined the owner’s collection and remained there for 21 years.
This Yamaha FZR 750-R is immediately available in Switzerland and will need a complete restarting job before taking the road.
