About this model

About the Yamaha XJR 1200

The Yamaha XJR1200 is a classic retro naked produced by Yamaha from 1994 to 1998. It is powered by an air-cooled 1188 cc inline-four derived directly from the FJ1200 engine, producing over 98 hp. The XJR1200 positioned itself as a powerful, no-frills roadster without modern rider aids, pure riding pleasure with a robust character. In 1998 it was succeeded by the XJR1300.

The XJR1200 appeals to motorcycle enthusiasts who appreciate the directness and character of a large air-cooled inline-four. The riding position is upright and neutral, suited to both city and motorway. The model is now a popular choice as a custom or café-racer base. Parts are still available but becoming increasingly scarce. Not suitable for beginners due to the direct power delivery and substantial riding weight.

Before you buy

What to check before buying

  • Check the air-cooled inline-four for oil leaks at valve covers, sump and cylinder head assembly.
  • Inspect carburettors for blockages and wear; four carburettors on an older example call for a full rebuild.
  • Check steering head bearings for play and notchiness; the heavy weight degrades steering bearings faster than lighter models.
  • Ask about electrical condition: capacitors, starter motor and starter relay are vulnerable items on bikes of this age.
  • Check the swingarm for rust in the welds and the brake caliper for pitting; parts are becoming increasingly scarce.
