For 2001, Yamaha introduced the FJ 1300, one of the most powerful and advanced tourers on the market. Much of the spec sheet reads like a sportsbike: a twin-spar aluminum frame, 145hp (107 Kw) fuel-injected engine, one-piece four-piston Rl brake calipers and adjustable suspension. But all this technology was contained inside a large touring fairing, with comfortable, upright riding position, shaft drive and integrated hard luggage design. The FJ 1300 thus combines sporting performance with touring convenience.
