Overview
The Yamaha FJ R1300A is a Sport Tourer from the FJ family, produced from 2018 to 2020. The 2020 model has a 1298 cm³ liquid-cooled inline-four making 146 hp (109 kW) and 138 Nm at 7,000 rpm, with a wet weight of 288 kg.
At 805 mm, the seat height is a key fit measurement, while the 288 kg wet weight can make low-speed maneuvering more demanding. Its 25-liter tank and 6.50 L/100 km fuel consumption give a calculated range of about 385 km per tank. Shaft drive eliminates chain cleaning and adjustment, the assist-and-slipper clutch helps calm the rear wheel on hard downshifts, and ABS works with unified braking. Saddle bags provide built-in carrying capacity.

Pros and cons
Advantages
Shaft final drive
The shaft drive avoids the routine chain cleaning and adjustment required by chain final drives.
Touring storage and range
Saddle bags and an estimated 385 km from the 25-liter tank support longer rides between fuel stops.
Adjustable suspension
The fully adjustable front fork and rear preload and rebound settings let riders tune the suspension to their needs.
Things to consider
Substantial weight
At 288 kg wet, the bike can take more effort to maneuver at walking speed or move while parked.
Fuel use
Consumption of 6.50 L/100 km means fuel stops come sooner than they would on a more fuel-efficient ride.

How to measure
Stand barefoot with your back to a wall. Hold a book firmly between your legs, then measure from the floor to the top edge of the book.
Estimated ground reach
Both feet likely flat
You should have a stable stance at a stop, although seat width and suspension setup still matter.
