Anyone test drove one of these? Looks like a lot of bike for under $8K. 4-stroke triple with 115 hp at around 400 lbs wet. A few of us may head over to the Yamaha dealership Friday to check it out.

I haven't ridden one, but I've admired that amazing bike for a while now, and I'll be very interested in your ride report(s). Bikes like that, and the smaller ones like the 250-300 class and the KTM 390 might just renew interest in motorcycling.

No, but if I was in the market for a new bike it would be on my list of ones to look at. Same with the ktm 390's
