The YZF-Rt::' Radical. Revolutionary. Brilliant. Sexy. The bike tl1a1: all !ipOrt blkl!5 are mea5Ured against. For three year5 now, the magazine experts have been scouring their the5aUruses searching for new 5Uperlatlves with which to capture the essence Df this aw....ll1!iplrlng machine. U!i, well, we like to think Df the RI a5 ab!iolutely perfi!ct: because, frankly, tl1en!'s simply no other !ipOrt bike like It. State-Df-the-art engine and cha!i!ils tech wrap 99Bcc and 150 horsepower In a package smaller and lighter than most 6005, while sleek, wlnd-tunnelsculpted bodywork creates a profile a5 SbJnJ1lng a5 11: Is slippery. The YZF-m. Open-da!i!i SUjJE!r!ipOrt machine wlth-out peer. And "proof," according to CYCle World Magazine, "That there's no such thing as too much perfonnance." They used to call them standards. Stili do, In certain circles. We, on the other hand, prefer naked bike. Naked and nasty. Besides, all It takes Is one look at the all-new FZI to know there's nothing standard about this machine. Starting with Its full-blooded, RI-sans-the-bodywork pedigree that's taken the best Df Yamaha's flagship open-c1asserthe engine, suspension, brakes and styling - and forged a completely new animal that's equal parts classic superblke and sport-tourer. Maybe we should call It a Supersport-Tourer? Nah, we stili like naked. And this one, the all-new-for-2001 FZI, Is nastier than ever. Hollywood Motorcycles Inc. 1339 .
