YAMAHAFZ1 EX 2008 - 2009

　　In 2009, Yamaha released the FZ1 EX, a sports motorcycle with some extra elements, keeping the bike in great shape even after many miles. Some parts included an attractive sub cowl, a tank pad, and frame sliders.

　　In addition to the extra elements, the EX model was equipped from the factory with a dual headlight design, a chin spoiler, a belly pan, a two-pieced dual seat with integrated passenger handles, and five-spoke lightweight aluminum wheels.

　　The bike was built on a lightweight twin-spar aluminum frame that offered excellent rigidity balance and used the engine as a stressed member. This allowed for a lighter frame design without altering stability and handling capabilities.

　　The bike's suspension was handled by a telescopic fork on the front with 130 mm wheel travel and a link-type swingarm with a single shock absorber on the rear offering 130 mm wheel travel.

　　In the braking department, the machine rolled on five-spoke aluminum wheels fitted with four-piston calipers and two 320 mm discs on the front. On the rear, the bike packed a 245 mm disc with a single-piston caliper, offering strong braking performance.

　　A 998cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with 147 hp on tap at 11,000 rpm and 106 Nm (77 lb-ft) torque at 8,000 rpm pushed the 2009 Yamaha FZ1 EX to a top speed of 246 kph (153 mph).
