2000 Yamaha XJR 1300 Overview

For 2000, Yamaha offers the XJR 1300 as a naked bike motorcycle with 1250 cc on tap. The 2000 Yamaha XJR 1300 is built around an In-line four, four-stroke engine. Out on the road, the XJR 1300 delivers 100 Nm @ 6000 of torque. Flat out, it's quoted at 210 km/h. In everyday use, the 2000 XJR 1300 tips the scales at 230 kg, carries a 21-litre fuel tank, offers a seat height of 775 mm and spans a 1,500 mm wheelbase. That's roughly 21.5 kg heavier than the average naked bike motorcycle in our database. Every technical detail, from suspension travel to tyre sizes, is covered in the full 2000 Yamaha XJR 1300 spec sheet below.

2000 XJR 1300 - Pros & Cons

Strengths

  • Large fuel range: With a 21-litre tank, this isn't a bike you'll be stopping for fuel every hour - a real asset on longer trips.

Considerations

  • Age-related wear: No particular mechanical concern flags for the XJR 1300 - condition on any used example comes down to how well it's been looked after.

Wear Points & Servicing Notes

Brake disc and pad wear

Dual disc up front provides the primary stopping power; inspect disc thickness and pad wear at each tyre change to catch scoring before it becomes a rotor replacement.

Handling the weight at a standstill

The XJR 1300's 230 kg kerb weight is worth factoring into how you handle it at a standstill - parking-lot manoeuvres need a bit more deliberate technique than on a lighter machine.

XJR 1300 - Buying & Maintenance Guide

What to check before buying

A pre-purchase check on the 2000 Yamaha XJR 1300 should cover the same ground every time: service history, chain and sprocket condition, and any oil seepage around the casings. Start it from cold if you can - a well-kept XJR 1300 settles to a smooth idle within seconds.

Oil and filter changes

Oil changes are the cheapest insurance you can buy for a XJR 1300's engine - keep to the manufacturer's interval rather than stretching it. Use the viscosity grade the manual specifies, not whatever's on sale.
