So, you want an awesome motorcycle, but you don't know which one you want? Well, have I got the bike for you: my beautifully bad-ass 2012 Yamaha FZ8. Containing 100 horsepower in an 779cc inline-4 engine, amazing stopping power in the dual 4-piston front brakes, and a large-for-it's-class 4.5 gallon fuel tank, you can go all day with lots of power in both acceleration and deceleration. This bike could work great for day-to-day commute, long-distance sport tourer, or just for fun in the back roads. I'm the second owner of this bike, and I've had it since approx 7.5k miles. It's still under manufacturer warranty until 2018. I've taken meticulous care of it since, doing frequent oil/filter changes and following the service manual's maintenance schedule. For this season, the following work has been done: * Flushed coolant * Flushed brake fluid in front/rear * Brand new front brakes: both rotors, pads (EBC sintered), Venhill stainless steel braided brake lines * Rear Venhill stainless steel braided brake lines * Lubed clutch cable * Oil and filter change done 1.5k miles ago (Rotella T6 and Purolator PureONE) * Headlight bulb was replaced last year (should be good for another year or two at least) * Nearly brand-new DID VX chain and sprockets (replaced less than 1k miles ago) * Michelin Pilot Road 4 front and rear tires (maybe 3k miles old) (VERY good sport touring tires) I've done a few upgrades, as well: * Motodynamic LED tail light (with integrated turn signals and modulated brake light) * Fender eliminator * Smaller front turn signals (I have the originals if you want) * CRG Hindsight Lanesplitter Bar End Mirror * G2 Ergonomics Throttle Tamer (helps with low-throttle control) * Two Brothers Racing Juice Box (same as Power Commander/PCV) (helps eliminate throttle snatch present in all FI bikes) * SpeedoDRD (fixes stock speedometer error; speedo is 99% accurate to GPS) * Gold reflective rim tape (can easily be removed) * Shorty clutch/brake levers * OEM Center Stand Extras/original parts included with purchase: * Owner's manual * PDF of service manual * OEM toolkit and bag (along with a few extra tools) * Small windscreen * Stock front turn signals * A few extra sets of aftermarket turn signals * Stock throttle tube * Givi PLXR quick-release side case rack (suitable for Givi V35 side cases; not included) * OnGuard disc lock * Stock tail light * Extra rear brake rotor * Spare ignition key * Cover Clean title, and inspected through April 2016.
