It's the "Transformer" generation they are geared to. The new naked bikes just looks like rat nests to me.

414 pounds wet is impressive.
Couldn't find Hp or Torque numbers.

I don't think it's ugly.

The instruments should help Yamaha's profit margin but I suspect it's a way of providing for the latest craze of mounting GPS, Cameras, and cell phones.

The D-Mode stuff is really only good for an all weather/all terrain type rider.

Price is right....sorta.


115hp and 85nm \ 64?? ft-lbs

sounds like fun to me.


Ouch....nice Hp/wt ratio but the torque (?) seems low.
