Yamaha Fj-09

The Yamaha Fj-09 has a top speed of 215 km/h (estimated; note: manufacturer does not officially publish top speed), produces 115 hp and weighs 193 kg. Motoryk rates it 8.2/10.

Le Yamaha FJ-09 (vendu sous le nom de MT-09 Tracer en Europe) a été introduit en 2015 en tant que dérivé sportif de la populaire MT-09, avec un pare-brise, un débattement de suspension plus long et des points de fixation des bagages. Il a fait l'objet d'une mise à jour importante en 2018 avec une ergonomie révisée, une électronique améliorée et une option de changement de vitesse rapide. Le FJ-09 se distingue par ses performances de la MT-09 dans un package de tourisme plus pratique qui dure toute la journée à un prix compétitif.

Ce que les acheteurs doivent savoir

⚙️

Proven CP3 Engine

The FJ-09 shares its 847cc triple-cylinder engine with the MT-09, a platform known for strong long-term reliability when properly maintained. Owners regularly report 50,000+ miles with minimal mechanical issues.

⚠️

Watch the Throttle

Early 2015-2016 models had a notoriously jerky, abrupt throttle response that frustrated many riders. Look for bikes with an ECU reflash or throttle tamer mod already installed, as this significantly improves rideability.

💰

Strong Resale Value

The FJ-09 holds its value well in the used market due to its versatile adventure-touring appeal and loyal following. Buying used is smart, as depreciation flattens quickly after the first few years.

Experienced riders wanting affordable, capable sport-touring

"Buy the suspension-upgraded example and never look back."

$5,500-$8,500 used

The FJ-09 is one of those bikes that punches well above its price point on the used market. Yamaha's CP3 triple is genuinely brilliant — smooth low-down, characterful mid-range, and surprisingly urgent up top. It's not a superbike, but it moves with real purpose. The ergonomics hit a sweet spot between sporty and comfortable, and it'll do sport-touring, commuting, or canyon runs without complaint. Genuinely versatile in the best possible way. That said, go in with eyes open. Early 2015-2016 examples have notoriously vague, wallowy suspension — it's not dangerous, just disappointing. Most used examples you'll find have already had aftermarket springs or a full suspension rebuild thrown at them, which is actually fine. Check service history obsessively; these engines reward regular oil changes. The fueling can be abrupt below 4,000 rpm in A mode — switch to B mode and it largely disappears. Minor annoyance, not a dealbreaker.
