A design study in understatement
An understated front end and civilised lines conceal an important fact - that beneath the Fazer8's classy exterior beats the heart of a true performance sports machine.
Specially-designed 779cc engine
An engine combines cylinder bodies, crankshaft, top end and forged pistons with a displacement of 779cc - to craft the perfect power curve and character for this category.
Instant torque meets slingshot horsepower
The FZ8 engine is designed for instant drive down low with a thick torque band - making it a lively machine even on shorter trips. But rev it towards the red line, and you'll discover that trademark Yamaha rush of top-end power when it's time to unleash serious sports performance.
Aluminium frame
The black, powder-coated Deltabox frame at the structural centre of the Fazer8 uses a low weight, high rigidity design - giving you outstanding high-speed stability and cornering confidence.
Semi-faired for comfort and sleek aerodynamics
The weather protection and sleek aerodynamics of a half cowl and screen make the Fazer8 even more comfortable and composed at high speeds and in changing weather conditions.
Slim fuel tank and compact, roomy ergonomics
The Fazer8 has a slim tank and specially-positioned footrests and handlebars - for a riding position that feels light, compact and gives you the space to move.
ABS as standard
The optional linear control ABS will help prevent a skid and bring you to a controlled stop. Choose it hoping you'll never need it - but knowing it's there if you do.
