1991 Yamaha FZR750R OW01

Description

Please note: This 1991 Yamaha FZR750R OW01 sold before it was scheduled to go up for auction – we’re sharing it to help you value the Iconic Motorbikes that we sell!

The increasing popularity of the World Superbike Championship since its inception in 1988 has been responsible for the introduction of over-the-counter road bikes boasting specifications aimed squarely at the racetrack. The most famous of these limited edition ‘homologation specials’ is Honda’s iconic RC30, but Yamaha’s answer, the 1989 FZR750R, better known as the OW01, is even rarer and more exotic with only 500 built.

This example is VIN: JYA3JVN07MA002114. It sold on a clean Oregon title; however, the sale also included the MSO showing that it had originally been distributed to Yamaha Motor Corporation USA.

It was also owned by Nick Ienatsch at one point.

The odometer shows 9,229 miles.
