The Genesis tag refers to the engine and not the frame/cycle parts, yes?
The Genesis engine had steeply inclined barrels 5 valves, almost downdraught carbs and no EXUP. As per pre '89 FZR1000/750/FZ750
The EXUP engine was totally dif
ferent, as far as I know none of the parts are interchangeable between the two engines, or even the carbs/exhaust/clutch/generator etc.
If the Genesis tag refers to the engine, surely only the original should really be called Genesis as the EXUP wasn't even the same general shape.
I always thought that Yamaha liked the name and just applied it to the EXUP, but I'm sure that the Genesis tag originally and specifically referred to the new (in 1987) engine, and not just because any engine with 5 valves was a Genesis.
I told you I was biased. |
The Genesis tag refers to the engine, but specifically was the marketing name for Yamaha's 5 valve head engines, which were used on the FZ750 FZX and FZR1000 Geneisis first, but the technology is also used on later EXUP based motors too, including the YZF-R1.
No bike has ever carried the Genesis tag without the 5 valve head. That's what it really refers to. Some bikes had EXUP and Genesis technology. ____________________ TZR250 2MA road, TZR250 1KT road, TZR250 2MA race, TDR250, YZF-750R Boost colours.

I loved my FZ750. My first big bike and it went like a rocket. Really miss that bike and would buy another if I had the money / space / time etc. |
I enjoyed mine too, when I had it. But years later, I had a go of a mate's, and didn't enjoy riding it at all. Since discovering the FZS1000 Fazer, I wouldn't go back to one. It has that same Yamaha 'feel', only better than the old FZ.
My FZR EXUP was the second incarnation in 1991. I think it was just different forks, different can and paint job.
Having just a frame seems like not enough to be bothering with to me? As Billy says, you can pick up a complete roadworthy bike for not too much if you fancy one. ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

Cheers.
Seems they don't like the cut of my jib though.
Or rather, they won't even let me in. It's a bit like 'Barbara' from 'Pemps'. (Google it) ____________________ Mpd72: I can categorically say i’m Brighter than that, no matter how I come across on here.

Old Thread Alert!
The last post was made 7 years, 6 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful? |
