YAMAHAFZR 600 1989 - 1997

　　The Yamaha FZR 600 was a sports motorcycle manufactured by Yamaha in 1988 to replace the Yamaha FZ 600. It continued production until 1995 when it was replaced by the Yamaha YZF 600R.

　　It packed a steel Deltabox frame and swingarm similar in design to the aluminum Deltabox frame of the FZR 400 model introduced three years earlier. The engine was slanted forward in the frame for a centralized mass and a lower center of gravity.

　　In 1989, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Yamaha FZR 600, a sports motorcycle with standard fittings, such as a full fairing with two round headlights, a medium-sized windscreen, a single seat with a passenger seat cover, an up-swept single exhaust system, and lightweight three-spoke wheels.

　　Suspension-wise, the bike packed a 41 mm adjustable telescopic fork on the front, delivering 130 mm of travel, and an adjustable shock absorber on the rear with 115 mm of travel, offering optimum suspension performance and handling capabilities.

　　The braking performance was achieved by two 298 mm discs coupled to dual-piston calipers on the front wheel and a 214 mm disc with a single-piston caliper on the rear wheel, providing excellent stopping performance.

　　As for the power figures, the 1989 Yamaha FZR 600 had installed a 599cc liquid-cooled four-stroke four-cylinder engine underneath its fairing, delivering 91 hp with maximum strength at 10,500 rpm and 65 Nm (48 lb-ft) torque at 8,500 rpm.
