YAMAHAFazer 8 2012 - 2013

　　In 2012, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Yamaha Fazer 8, a half-naked motorcycle derived from the R-series but with more street character, making it perfect for riders not fond of super sports motorcycles.

　　The Yamaha Fazer 8 debuted in 2010 alongside the FZ8, an identical twin without a fairing. The bikes were for sale in Canada, America, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand, although as of July 2010, the bikes were sold in other markets as well.

　　The 2012 Fazer 8 came with the same package as previous models, packing the same technical, performance, and visual specifications without any modification whatsoever.

　　The bike's aesthetic was represented by standard features, such as a half fairing, a dual headlight system, a tall windscreen, a two-piece dual seat with passenger grab handles, a single exhaust muffler, and lightweight five-spoke wheels.

　　Some additional details were represented by features, such as a five-position adjustable front brake lever, a small storage compartment under the passenger seat, folding mirrors, lockable steering, and a durable, sealed O-ring chain drive.

　　In the performance department, the 2012 Yamaha Fazer 8 had its soul brought to life by a 779cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine fed by an Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) system, boasting 106 hp with maximum strength at 10,000 rpm and 81 Nm (60 lb-ft) torque at 8,000 rpm.
