FZ8-WGP 50th Anniversary
This aggressively-styled naked bike has been developed using advanced YZF-R supersport technology, making it one of the most exciting mid-class models available today. The high-tech 779cc engine produces strong torque as well as a real rush of top-end power for serious sports performance. And for great all-round handling characteristics there’s a lightweight Deltabox frame together with high quality suspension and braking systems. Its muscular no-nonsense styling is a guaranteed attention getter – and dressed in Yamaha's race-bred WGP 50th Anniversary colour scheme, the FZ8 commands respect.
