Our take on this /// Verdict

The Yamaha FJR1300AE is a stellar example of a sport tourer, offering a blend of power, comfort, and practicality that makes it an excellent choice for long-distance riding. Its 1,298cc in-line-four engine delivers smooth and powerful performance, capable of handling both highway cruising and twisty roads with ease. The electronic suspension on the AE model addresses the common complaint of weak shocks and soft springs, providing a silky smooth ride. However, the automatic clutch can be finicky, and some riders may miss the manual clutch engagement. The bikes comfort features, including the adjustable windscreen, comfortable seating, and ample storage, make it ideal for extended tours. Despite some minor issues like vibration and fairing interference, the FJR1300AE is a reliable and enjoyable ride, making it a top contender in the sport touring category.

Price

In India, the Yamaha FJR1300AE is not commonly available through official channels due to the absence of Yamahas large motorcycle segment in the local market. However, if imported through private dealers or grey market channels, the ex-showroom price could range from approximately 25 lakhs to 30 lakhs, depending on various factors such as customs duties, taxes, and the importers markup. On-road prices would be higher, potentially reaching up to 35 lakhs or more, including registration, insurance, and other local taxes. This high price point reflects the bikes premium nature and the costs associated with importing a high-end motorcycle.

Latest Updates

Tuesday, 12 November 2024 01:13 PM The 2025 Yamaha FJR1300 is expected to feature significant technological upgrades, including a control area network that will introduce advanced controls such as adaptive headlights, auto-following cruise control, and electronically controlled suspension. This new generation will also include a hill-start braking system and heated seats. I think these updates will make the FJR1300 a top contender in the sports touring segment.

Tuesday, 01 October 2024 12:40 PM The current Yamaha FJR1300ES model features a smooth-running 1,298cc DOHC engine with a six-speed transmission, designed for both sporty and relaxed riding. It also includes Yamaha’s Chip Controlled Throttle (YCC-T) system, which provides crisp throttle response and supports features like traction control and cruise control. I think this makes the FJR1300ES a versatile choice for long-distance riding.

Friday, 27 October 2023 07:18 PM Yamaha has applied for a patent related to a wireless vehicle diagnostic device for the FJR1300, indicating a move towards more integrated and advanced diagnostic capabilities in the next model. This could make maintenance and troubleshooting much easier for owners. I believe this is a great step forward in bike technology.

Monday, 04 September 2023 11:02 PM The Yamaha FJR1300 has been praised for its reliability and performance, with many police departments and state troopers using it for long-distance duties. Despite not having major updates in recent years, adding components like high-end suspension can significantly enhance its performance. I think this bike remains a solid choice for those looking for a reliable sports tourer.

Thursday, 30 June 2022 06:53 PM There are ongoing speculations that the Yamaha FJR1300 might be discontinued, particularly in more restrictive markets like Europe due to Euro5 emission standards. However, it is still available in the US market, although its future remains uncertain. I hope Yamaha finds a way to keep this model alive, as it has a loyal following.

Mileage

Monday, 18 November 2024 11:50 PM The mileage of the Yamaha FJR1300AE in Indian conditions can vary, but it generally offers respectable fuel efficiency for its class.
