Overview

The Yamaha FJ 09 is a sport tourer from the FJ family, produced from 2015 through 2018. For 2018, its 847 cm³ in-line three-cylinder four-stroke makes 115 hp (86 kW), with 61.5 Nm of torque at 8,480 rpm; wet weight is 209.6 kg.

The 846 mm seat height can make it harder for shorter riders to place both feet flat on the ground, and its 209.6 kg wet weight takes more effort to manage at walking pace. Peak torque arrives at 8,480 rpm, so the engine needs to be revved to reach it. The 18.2-liter tank and stated 5.40 liters/100 km fuel consumption correspond to a calculated range of about 337 km.

Pros and cons

Advantages

ABS braking
ABS on the front brakes can help prevent wheel lock during hard braking.
Adjustable suspension
Preload and rebound damping adjust on both the 41 mm front fork and rear shock, allowing suspension setup to be changed for the rider and load.
Slipper clutch
The assist and slipper wet clutch helps calm the rear wheel during hard downshifts.

Things to consider

Tall seat
At 846 mm, the seat may make it difficult for shorter riders to get both feet firmly on the ground.
Weight at low speed
Its 209.6 kg wet weight can take more effort to maneuver in tight spaces and at walking pace.
Chain final drive
The chain needs periodic cleaning and adjustment.
