YAMAHA FZX 750 Fazer (1984-1990) Specs, Performance & Photos

The Yamaha FZX 750 was a standard motorcycle manufactured by Yamaha in the early 1980s and continued production until the mid-1990s. The US version was named FZX 700 Fazer and was imported only in 1986 and 1987, featuring a 50cc smaller displacement due to import tariffs on bikes larger than 700cc.

In 1984, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Yamaha FZX 750 Fazer, a standard motorcycle with an almost solid rear wheel, a low seat, many chromed elements, and downdraft carburetors integrated into the fuel tank.

The bike's visual department was represented by standard features, such as a rectangular headlight, two chromed instruments mounted on top of the headlight, a one-piece dual seat with a passenger grab handle, a dual exhaust system with a silencer mounted on both sides, and lightweight aluminum wheels.

In the performance department, the 1984 Yamaha FZX 750 Fazer had installed a 749cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine underneath its fuel tank, fed by four Mikuni carburetors, delivering 94 hp at 9,500 rpm and 76 Nm (56 lb-ft) torque at 8,000 rpm.

The engine was bolted to a six-speed manual transmission with a wet multi-disc clutch, sending the power to the rear wheel through a final chain drive. The bike reached a top speed of 211 kph (131 mph).

As for stopping power, the bike relied on two 267 mm discs with dual-piston calipers on the front wheel and a 267 mm disc with a two-piston caliper on the rear wheel, offering optimum braking performance.
