Yamaha FJR 1300

2003
56,674 miles
Very good service History (13 Services, see below)
ULEZ OK
Colour Marched panniers, plus Top Box
Heated Grips (Oxford)
Tyres : Front 5mm, Rear 6mm
MOT : 9/2/2026

Extras : MRA Vario screen (electric), Migsel Sat Nav mount, Bag lux tank cover, YSS Rear Shock, Grip Puppies, Rad guard, Tony Archer gel seat conversion, Heated Grips (Oxford).

I bought this bike from this patch 18 months ago. I've had many BMWs including GS's, and I can honestly say this bike feels, and has been, the most reliable. It feels like you could throw anything at it. Well built, the minimum of electronics, and lovely low end torque.

Located in South London.

Bad Points

Not concourse, but reasonable for it's age. A few minor scratches and scuffs, notably LH Pannier, and just above the gear shift, where boots have chaffed against the metal work (see pics).
Some paint has come off the radiator (see pic)

If you have never ridden one of these you will not know what you are missing. Rapid bit of kit that handle well and if serviced correctly it will do at least twice the miles and more,

 

[JJH]

Very well made. I had one. I regret parting with it. Solid honest hard working machine. JJH

Never regret...still a chance to get back in !! £ 2k maybe ?!

 

[JJH]

pm sent, thanks

 

[Nick the ship]

Any takers at £ 2,000 or thereabouts ?! Even has the Magic red Yamaha key...

 

[Wag]

Saw this bike on autotrader for £1850. Seems like a bargain. A tad too old for what I'm looking for though.

Still have this nice FJR which has been in an underground carpark since Sept. On at a ridiculously low £ 1,650 elsewhere, but if any willing Tosser, will let it go for even less...
