Post Listing Update: This OWO1 was pulled off of eBay, final sale price unknown.
The Yamaha FZR750R OWO1 made even the Honda RC30 look pedestrian. With only 500 built, it was more exclusive than the RC30, and it was five grand more expensive, too. This was a homologation special created so that Yamaha could race in WSBK and it was probably the closest thing to a street legal racebike that you could buy at the time.
Compression (with the race kit) was up to an impressive 13.5:1, but the engine gives you a long, flat torque spread. With the race kit that this specific bike has, top speed was over 170mph. You got top notch Ohlins suspension units and four-piston Nissin racing calipers. 140 of the 500 examples were imported to Britain – this example has the race kit and it comes with the original tool kit, paperwork, and owner’s manual.
