The Yamaha FJR1300 is a sport touring motorcycle with a 1,298 cc inline-four engine, sold in the standard FJR1300A form and in the AE and AS forms that add an electronically controlled clutch and gear shifting system called YCC-S. It reached Europe in 2001 and North America for the 2003 model year, and the 2003 bike won several awards in the sport touring class.

The third generation in 2013 added new front bodywork, LED lighting, a ride-by-wire throttle called YCCT with sport and touring modes, and traction control. Production ended between 2022 in Europe and 2023 in the United States.
