The 2016 FZ-09 delivers huge power and performance in an ultra-lightweight and agile sportbike – all at an
incredible value. It combines a grin-inducing 847cc, inline 3-cylinder crossplane crankshaft concept engine with
a compact aluminum chassis and upright riding position, perfect for conquering the urban maze, Sunday morning
blasts and everything in between. No wonder it earned
Motorcyclist
’s “Best Bang for the Buck” and
Cycle World
’s
“Best Middleweight.” The incredible FZ-09. Prepare to be thrilled.
Always there to help you save. Now that’s Progressive.
