My prediction is a big update...next year. The FZ-07 came out a year after the FZ-09 and it just got updated for 2017. I would love to be wrong though.

I suspect the FJ version of the 7 will be the much improved FZ-07, just like the FJ-09 did with better suspension, better ecu mapping, ABS, windshield, minimal fairings, Traction Control, bigger gas tank over the FZ-09... the the FZ is bare basic entry base model level motorcycle platform for yamaha to build up on and refine... cheaper than throwing 2-3 versions of same bike out at same time, start with a great platform and listen to the customers want/ dislikes/ see how ppl set up for what ever they use the bike for...we are the R&D lab for them ?

2015 fz-07- Hordpower Edition...2015 fj-09- 120whp- Graves Exhaust w/Woolich Race Kit- tuned by 2WDW

Here's the promo video. As stated above, Red is back and ABS is available. In the ad it even says (previous model year shown).
 
Next year should be a good update!

The site says there will be a Matte Silver as well, but they don't have a pic of it.
I was just going to add that.  Did you notice ABS is an option...as long as you want a red one.  I have no idea why that should be color dependant.

Gotta tell ya, I am glad I got the blurple wheels and frame!!!
Agreed.  That's probably the best part about the color scheme on my bike.

I have the 2016 with the silver and blurple which I like a LOT! 
Having said that, I plan in about 2 years to buy the shiny black panels to give me the feel of a new bike. Those black panels work really well with the blurple too. That's around the time that I will do some serious engine mods as well to complete the new bike feel.

I wouldn't mind getting a set of blue plastics to spruce up my white.

You missed the important part in the video....ABS!
 
I'll probably update my red one with all the new red body work. That's how it should have been made!

Got new red 2015 FZ-07 on 7/22/16!

I think there might be too much red. I will have to see it in person. If the color is the same as my red I might get the fender panels though.
