presentation of the FJR 1300 2005

apart from the 900 Diversion, Yamaha has been missing a tourer since the demise of the 1000 GTS. The manufacturer has taken the genes of the FJ 1200 and presented us with a model whose arguments are tempting. The lines are classy and sober, and it immediately presents itself as a vessel for the road. Settling aboard the FJR poses no problem, and you immediately feel at ease. The controls are smooth, the clutch progressive, and the good weight distribution contributes to making this bike very pleasant and easy to handle. The big 1300 engine is a marvel: its impressive torque and surprising power make the FJR a very fast and wonderfully efficient bike. The limited ground clearance and the inertia due to the weight remind you that you're not riding a sports bike, but the chassis and excellent handling allow you to adopt very rewarding gaits. You can carve up the road and have fun without a care in the world. The suspension is excellent, the drivetrain (cardan shaft) is forgettable, the braking is a delight - powerful and progressive - and the bike is easy to corner. All parameters that add to the pleasure of riding.

Yamaha FJR 1300 2005 - 1Yamaha FJR 1300 2005 - 1

since 2003, the FJR has been equipped with a new electric bubble, said to be more effective than the previous one.aBS, as well as a small, practical storage compartment on the left-hand side of the fairing. Thus equipped, the new FJR can take on the big names in the class, such as the Honda Pan European or the BMW R 1150 RT or K 1200 GT, without blushing.

Reseña
French José Alvear Ziegler Model 2001
Hello friends, excellent machine a Yamaha perfection in Touring category, two criticisms
- needs a sixth gear absolutely would have better performance
- second fault is the exhaust valve guide of the pilot side cylinder head, Yamaha does not recognize it as a recall, but knows it is a failure of the manufacturer the valve stem is very thick and fatigue the guide, Yamaha of all has solved it quietly, for example in USA and South America there were many cases, it happened to me and I had to write to Japan and Yamaha Chile solved the problem fortunately, with the rest an excellent machine

excellent machine, and very good engine, I have a hayabusa next to it but as far as luggage is concerned, it's too short for a duo (especially as far as comfort is concerned), so to say that miss FJR is the ideal companion for long-distance trips, I bought it in May 2018, and we covered almost 3000 kms in 15 days, in August, during a southern escapade, and we're delighted with it.

French chevalier Model 2004
Hello . I'm an old backpacker. Of the few bikes I've owned, this is the second FJR I've owned, and we're very satisfied with it
my partner and myself, because Madame has something to say about comfort. The first has happily covered 150,000 km, and the second is at 60,000 km. For me, it's a bike with very good roadholding, a pleasant ride and very good comfort, especially for the passenger over long distances. Don't take this machine for a sports bike, you'll be disappointed. Its weight is a handicap, especially when loaded, but it's still easy to handle, as long as you respect your mother. It's a good tourer.

Hello
I've been driving my fjr model since 2007, with 66,000 km on the clock
and I must admit I've never had any problems. I was up to Croatia with a real tarmac eater
and it's true that it heats up a little in the legs, but subsequent models have been revised
I'd like to change for a BMWk1600 Gt,,,,
I'm curious to try it out,,,,,, otherwise I'm sure I'll keep it or change for a more recent FJR

As a future purchaser of a fjr 1300, I'm sceptical about the heat generated by the motor, a recurrent fault apparently among owners of this machine, and I'm hesitant to make the purchase for this reason alone. Design, motor, reliability... Everything points to this purchase, but if you have to cook at low speed... What do you recommend? Is this an argument not to buy one????? Rating : 4/5

French Elvin007 Model 2003
I'm disappointed with the bike of my dreams:

I finally buy my used FJR from a Yamaha garage with 42,000 km.

I think "the FJ's engine is a safe bet", I tell myself "the mileage is low for this type of bike".

After 49,000km, the engine is out of order due to poor timing chain adjustment (carried out in the Yam workshop).

I've been surfing forums, talking to pros, and it's often said that there's a problem with the timing chain after 50,000 km, known to Yam but not recognized.

In short, known or not, I don't think it's right that the FJR 1300 engine should only run for 50,000 km.

Hi everyone, I wanted a tourer, so I tried a PAN 1300, a big rider but heavy and hard to stay at 90, then budget-wise anyway, I was limited to 10500 euros, so I went for a BM 1150RT,but I was missing the last one that I hadn't tried because it wasn't second-hand, and this morning I went to Yamaha, where the beautiful bike was available. MAGIC weight-wise, great handling, the engine is a joy to ride, very playful, and as torquey as you could wish for, so I think I'll give it another try, and maybe I'll let myself be tempted by the beast, and what's the weather protection level?

Hi, I've just acquired this 2006 FJR1300, only 200km, no more than 5000 rpm, but already it seems to promise great moments. I come from a 1992 Triumph 1200 Trophy4 and I must say that today I'm not disappointed. I get a real kick out of this scooter, a real bike next to the Triumph. It winds up with 4th dimension torque. In short, nothing but happiness. To be continued ... Rating : 5/5

French Jean Paul Model 2001
I've just replaced my 2004 FJR with the 2006 model. Yamaha has done a great job. The new model, aesthetically more aerodynamic and slimmer than the old one, is also much more accomplished and better finished. It has absolutely nothing to envy BMW or Pan Euro in terms of finish and comfort. The exhaust emits a muffled, pleasant sound, and gears engage silently. Gone are the "klongs" characteristic of Yamaha motorcycles. On the handlebars, comfort is real. Soft seat, more upright riding position, less wrist pressure on the handlebars (adjustable), much improved protection even with the original bubble, superb instrument panel with multi-function computer, and no more, it seems, heat build-up on the thighs (to be confirmed in summer). The handling is perfect, and the engine is as great as ever. Compared with previous versions, the engine speed is lower by around 500 rpm to reach the same speeds (120 km/h at 4000 rpm in 5th gear, instead of 4500 rpm previously). This gives the impression of greater flexibility and reduces fuel consumption. Nevertheless, acceleration and acceleration are just as vigorous. The machine has not lost its tone..
Everything has moved in the right direction, except the price (+ 1000 euros) and the weight... Be careful when maneuvering at low speed. Fairing protectors will now be offered as a manufacturer's accessory
The fjr were the best GTs on the market in terms of performance, chassis and handling, but they were a little lacking in terms of comfort and finish. The new fjr retains these qualities, but with a touch more class

French Marc T Model 2001
I'm the proud owner of a 2005 FJR 1300 A, and I'm amazed to already see the improvements I'd hoped for (e.g. I had to upgrade to a 5 cm leather seat, I hadn't found a solution to overheating in summer, etc.).but what about fuel consumption? I always consume a lot (over 10 liters) the top case support at the rear cracks with the weight of a single computer in the top case at high speed (replaced 2 times). By the way, I'm surprised to see 228 kms /h max when it's easily cruising at over 260 kms/h (but the vibrations on the fairing are then disturbing and, depending on the wind, require you to find the most appropriate max speed. Will foot protection be improved in wet weather? I already made little use of the clutch and look forward to trying out the YCCS. The Belgian freeway police are going to be equipped with them to replace the BMs, and that's saying a lot! No radio or speedometer in sight? V to all Rating : 5/5
French Jean Paul Model 2001
Sleeker and more aesthetically pleasing than previous models. Let's hope that the modification of the intermediate sprocket won't detract from the engine character that makes this machine so charming and sets it apart from its competitors. It's a pity, however, that it's put on weight. Buyers of this type of motorcycle generally prefer not to have to maneuver machines approaching 300 kgs (unless a reverse gear is fitted, which is not the case with the FJR). An effort should have been made to reduce weight, as BMW has done with its motorcycles. 12 kg less rather than the opposite, combined with the improvements made on this new model, would have marked a real technological and commercial breakthrough. Perhaps a later version... Rating : 5/5

Well, here's a machine that flatters the pleasure of ownership. Beautiful to look at and certainly to ride, I hope the fairing will be more protective than the 2005 model.

French Claude Model 2001
Having tested, bought and used many European and Japanese models, I consider the Yamaha FJR to be the best sports tourer currently available, with a faultless chassis, a level of comfort that allows you to cover hundreds of kilometers a day, no matter how rough the road, even as a duo, and a docile, powerful engine suited to all riding styles.As a duo, we travel Europe with peace of mind, at all speeds permitted in the various countries. You can ride like a father in peace, or leave behind a number of models with a reputation for being ... sporty. For me, it's a perfectly accomplished machine. Of course, you'll tell me that it warms up the legs a bit, or even....plus in summer, but what a pleasant sensation when the cold arrives and the road is long. Backpackers will understand!

French zinzin Model 2001
fjr ABS model 2004. MEZ4 tires (dangerous on wet roads) still in good condition (alas) at 19,000 kms. Dynamic driving fuel consumption approx. 8L/100. No defects to report. No visible ageing of bodywork or engine parts. No technical problems. Very satisfactory protection, even with bubble in low position (for a height of 1m75). Engine heat bearable, whatever the critics may say. Excellent handling and agility once you've mastered the bike. The engine, which is released at around 15,000 kms, is brilliant: powerful and torquey to a fault. The overall comfort allows you to swallow the 280 kms or so of range before the reserve without tiring. The best of the 10 "big cubes" I've owned over the past 25 years. A dream bike. I'm resigning for a 2006 model. Rating : 5/5

An ABS model bought new in June 2003, I've since covered 52,000 km with almost nothing but pleasure. In summer, it heats up a lot in town, and its stability with luggage is far from impeccable, even at speeds that are still acceptable. But I hardly wear any tires compared to all the reviews I've just read, pads every 25,000 and very reasonable fuel consumption. And what torque! Two years later, I can't get enough of it. There's just one small problem: at 20,000 km the timing belt tensioner was changed under warranty because it was noisy. At 50,000, it's the same thing again, and this time Yamaha is dragging their feet about taking charge of the repair because the warranty is 2 months overdue. I advise them to take a course at BMW's after-sales service. Rating : 5/5

i've always been a fan of european motorcycles (I still own 1 r75!) and I'm loyal to bmw, so in 2003 I decided to swap my old k 100 for a new bm. and there it was! total disappointment after a test ride! so, given the price, I looked for a machine with the same criteria and oh surprise, there it was at yam!!! a 1300 fjr for 30,000 less than the germans!! and with A TRUE ENGINE, I've done over 20,000km on the road and motorways since solo and more often than not with a2 and loaded (suitcases+top+tank bag).000km on roads and freeways since then, solo and most often with a2 and loaded (suitcases+top+tank bag), we do very long trips or weekend rides but it's always A TRUE HAPPINESS this machine has only positive sides (except for the inaccessible headlight adjustment), comfort (seat redone because it's original and not as comfortable as all motorcycles!), road holding, acceleration, breathtaking torque even when loaded, as for fuel consumption and tire wear, don't push it if you want to save money on that, you're riding a car.

i've owned a fjr for more than 2 years, and it's been a real pleasure to ride, except for the heating problem in summer, but you only have to drive a few kilometers with the bubble in the down position to cool your upper thighs and nipples. at higher speeds, it's a bit harder, but it's worth it. i've just returned from a trip to spain with my wife and a few kilos of excess luggage (or maybe my wife) and at speeds not always moderate, consumption 5.5 to 6 l, the rear tire before my departure had +- 4000 kms and despite the 4000 kms of freeway it has just done, in my opinion it can still go another 2000 kms,if you want a GT with character, don't hesitate, the fjr is worth a look.PS; a big BRAVO to French motorists for their fair play with motorcyclists - motorists in neighboring countries should follow suit Rating : 5/5

Owned since December 2001, this bike loses some of its smoothness over time. In fact, once you've tasted the high revs during the summer, winding on the torque during the off-season is a little bland, and you find the lower rev count less full. Otherwise, this is a bike made for single or double riding, with or without luggage. For medium-sized passengers, the footrests are set just a little too far back (1 to 2 cm), which is tiring after 400 kms. In fact, it's not as good as an ST 1300 Pan European. The engine, even after 40,000 kms, is still pleasant, i.e. full of torque at the bottom and allowing the arms to grow at the top of the rev counter. A few regrets about this bike: -1- it lacks a 6th gear in overdrive -2- it lacks cruise control -3- it eats up tires (6000 to 8000 kms per rear tire) -4- the first-generation bubble isn't top-notch Otherwise, it's perfect for eating up the miles, Yamaha has made us a nice, pleasant GT that's still a MOTORBIKE. And yes, when winding up, you can do up to 420 kms on a 25-liter tank, and when riding hard at 300 kms, you have to fill up. In short, it's a machine that lets me ride whenever I want and whatever the season, but it's a relatively heavy and voluminous machine reserved for people with a minimum of experience and humility (try to make the 277 kg of the beast look like a trail bike or a supersport on a small mountain road ....). To sum up, this is an endearing, all-round machine that lets you enjoy yourself in great comfort. It's a machine worth discovering that will change your mind about the GT. Rating : 5/5

French gadget Model 2001
i've had this bike for 6 months and it's a delight. the pluses: comfort alone or with 2 people, torque, flexibility. the minuses: only bike with central heating even in summer....and yam sells his suitcases with a sup worthy of caviar. in short, apart from the price, it's an excellent machine: dixit the passenger.
