2013 Yamaha FZ1 Fazer ABS Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
At the heart of the 2013 Yamaha FZ1 Fazer ABS naked motorcycle, Yamaha features a 998 cc (60.9 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line four, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 147.9 HP (108 kW) at 11,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 106 Nm (78.2 lb-ft) at 8,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox. With a specific output of 148.2 HP per liter and a 3,000 rpm working window between peak torque (8,000 rpm) and peak power (11,000 rpm), the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.
On the scales, the FZ1 Fazer ABS measures 225 kg (496 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.66 HP/kg (1.52 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 815 mm (32.1 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,460 mm (57.5 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 18-liter (4.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
