YAMAHAFZ 400R 1988 - 1994

　　The Yamaha FZ400R was a sports motorcycle that debuted in 1984 only for the Japanese market and was replaced in 1987 by the Yamaha FZR400. The FZR400 was updated yearly until 1994, when it was dropped from production.

　　All Yamaha FZR400R motorcycles were powered by 399cc naturally aspirated, carburated, four-cylinder, liquid-cooled engines mounted transversely in a perimeter-type box-section aluminum Deltabox frame, which was quite a unique layout for those days.

　　The bike came equipped from the factory with standard features, such as a half fairing with two round headlights up front, a windscreen for better wind protection, a two-piece dual seat, a four-into-one exhaust system with a silencer mounted on the right side, and three-spoke aluminum wheels.

　　In the suspension department, the bike packed a 41 mm telescopic fork on the front and a preload-adjustable shock absorber on the rear, delivering optimum suspension performance and handling.

　　In the braking department, the bike's wheels were fitted with two 298 mm discs coupled to dual-piston calipers on the front and a 210 mm disc tied to a two-piston caliper on the rear, providing optimum stopping power.

　　As for the power figures, the 1988 Yamaha FZR400 had its soul brought to life by a 300 four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine fed by four Mikuni carburetors, delivering an output power of 60 hp at 12,500 rpm and 39 Nm (29 lb-ft) torque at 9,500 rpm.
