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.
De Yamaha FJ-09 (verkocht als de MT-09 Tracer in Europa) werd in 2015 geïntroduceerd als een sporttoervariant van de populaire MT-09, met een voorruit, een langere veerweg en bevestigingspunten voor bagage. In 2018 kreeg het een belangrijke update met herziene ergonomie, verbeterde elektronica en een quickshifter-optie. De FJ-09 is opmerkelijk omdat hij MT-09-prestaties biedt in een praktischer reispakket dat de hele dag duurt tegen een concurrerende prijs.

Wat kopers moeten weten
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.

Beoordeling van gebruikte kopers
"Buy the suspension-upgraded example and never look back."
$5,500-$8,500 usedThe 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.
