presentation of the 800 FZ8 Race Blu 2013

the FZ8 "Race Blu" edition combines two of the distinctive features of the 2013 models. Technically, the roadster gains a new, more attractive and more vocal exhaust system, and above all, adjustable suspension. In the face of sharp competition, the "little" FZ1's main drawback was the lack of rigor in its damping.

visually, it takes up the color codes of THE Yam 2013 special series: a dress with blue and gray accents. Touches of color mark the rims, hubs and cylinder-head cover, and end with a border running from the shoulders to the buttocks. A new color is nothing out of the ordinary. However, Yamaha puts a lot of emphasis on its "Race Blu", which features a clever blend of "Yamaha Blue" and "Matt Grey", creating a style with urban accents. It was introduced by the MotoGP M1s at the Misano Grand Prix. The blue rims give the Yam "Race Blu Serie" a marked presence and a resolutely contemporary look. It's up to you to appreciate.

Modèle de transition
French Model 2013
Virtually rushed out in 2010 to compete with the dominance of the Z750, it was only a moderate success, and made us regret the premature demise of the much more assertive FZ6.
Fortunately, Yamaha came up with the MT09 in 2013, which had a far more successful career! That said, the FZ8 is still a very good second-hand bargain, and a very versatile machine, much better finished than the GSR750, which came out a year later but was, alas, a little too sloppy... Rating : 3/5
Une moto bonne a tout faire
French JjB Model 2010
I've owned a 2010 Fz8 S for over 4 years, and it's a good bike in terms of agility. Comfort is average, but the S version has a very good fork head and its bubble is really top-notch in terms of protection at high speeds and in wet weather. The engine is pleasant and smooth, you just have to rev it a little above 4000 rpm for it to show its sporty character. At 106hp, it seems a little short of the competition, but its strong point is its mid-range torque. For me, the two negative points of this Yam are the rear shock absorber, which is far too soft and dangerous at high speeds. I replaced them with ohlins and it's really night and day. Another negative point is the original exhaust pipe, unworthy of a manufacturer like Yamaha. Ugly, rough noise, no aesthetics, a real pot. I replaced it with a Leovince sbk carbon. Finally, it's a good bike for those looking for a compromise between comfort and sportiness. It's got a lot going for it, with its agility and comfortable front forks that do the job in any situation. Rating : 4/5
Quel modèle choisir, FZ8 ou MT07 ?
French Swellendam Model 2016
Hello,
i'm hesitating between 2 models, the MT-07 and the FZ8, both 2016 and new. Having been a fan of the R1, I'd like to switch to a more comfortable machine. What do you recommend if I want to continue riding for pleasure, without covering great distances?

thank you for your advice

On va sire "pas mal"
French Model 2013
I acquired this bike at the end of January 2016, a 2013 blu race ABS with only 1500 kms on the odometer, so practically new ARROW TECH exhaust.
I'd had the precaution of trying it out beforehand in MONTPELLIER (another new one with 1000 kms) and also the Z800, in a dealership in BEZIERS 860 kms or so, so new with IXIL exhaust, which is its main rival.
What I can say, since I've tested both, is that the Z800 has a more powerful engine, fuller, more generous at all revs, and looks great too.
The FZ8 is less flashy, with a less powerful engine, and just 100hp at full throttle (contrary to the 106 claimed, whereas the Z is basically 115). However, in terms of agility, the FZ8 is NETLY more agile, a fact that surprised me during testing and confirmed when I bought it. The FZ8 is less clumsy than the Z.
Why is that?
Well, take the weight of each, the height of each (center of gravity) and you'll have the answer.
In this review, I'm only talking about standard (unimproved) machines.
The choice is yours.........
I'm keeping an eye on the MT 10, which will have no equivalent in terms of full power, since it will be delivered legally in full. We're talking 160hp..........Houaaawwwwwwwwww Rating : 3/5

Beau résultat
French Model 2013
I've just acquired the FZ8 and frankly it's a great result, a very good chassis (deltabox) a good riding position, suspension a little stiff... The only hitch is the original muffler, which completely chokes, leaving an inaudible whistling sound.... Rating : 4/5
excellente machine

Very, very nice bike. Rating : 5/5
French Model 2013
A good compromise sports roadster, even if the two terms don't necessarily go together, thanks to good stability and interesting comfort, due in particular to the conciliatory suspension, although the seat is not very well designed. The engine is very nice, with decent torque at normal rpm and explosive power at higher revs. The finish is pretty and the overall look rather attractive, encouraging dynamic riding but offering good versatility, especially when equipped. Rating : 4/5
French Cool Dog Model 2011
in my opinion, this bike gives a lot of pleasure for its very low price...I replaced the muffler with the yashimoura model to make the appreciation better and it works.

It responds well in curves and acceleration is acceptable for the 106 HP, however a long use (8h00) becomes difficult to contain the pain of the posterior, the reliable engine and its electronics remains an attout not to be neglected. Rating : 4/5
French riton Model 2012
often encounters problems with the fuel gauge.noisy chain from about 15000 km.but still pleasant to drive Rating : 3/5
French terminat Model 2012
really good bike. Pretty good range. Up to 220 km before reserve in normal driving.
Torque from 5000. Possibility of storing a U and an anti-puncture spray under the seat. Efficient brakes. Easy to handle. Exhaust to be changed Rating : 4/5
French rene Model 2012
A good bike that's versatile in use, explosive in the revs and sporty enough on occasion. Gentle amorto for weak backs, but not a great seat shape. Rating : 4/5
