Having added FZR600 and FZR1000 models to its 'race replica' portfolio in the late 1980s, Yamaha eventually got around to doing the same for the 750 class, launching the all-new YZF750R and YZF750SP in 1993. All at once Yamaha had the most power and least weight in the class (133bhp and 195kg) courtesy of an improved version of the OW01 production racer's five-valves-per-cylinder engine and the latest iteration of the Deltabox aluminium alloy beam frame. Indeed, the YZF750 occupied the same amount of space as the FZR600 while offering FZR1000 power. With a racier specification than the track-focussed OW01 – shorter wheelbase, sharper steering geometry, and six-piston brakes (a sports bike first) – the YZF750 was quite simply the class of the field. A 'homologation special' intended primarily for the World Superbike Championship, the SP version came with Keihin flat-slide carburettors, a close-ratio gearbox, digital ignition system, fully adjustable suspension, and a solo seat among other modifications.

This UK-market YZF750R was purchased by the vendor in June 2019 and has not been run since then. Re-commissioning will be required before further use. Accompanying documentation consists of sundry bills, an expired MoT (2012) and a V5C.
