I own an old Yamaha XS750 triple 4 striker, and it needs a crank, rods and top end, as usual for those disasters. Word is, this new one has a Cross Plane crank, and is light years better than their old efforts. The XS had a 120 degree crank in it, so it did a full rotation of 3 firing pulses, then, another full rotation going through cycling of exhaust and fuel. |

I checked out the Yamaha site and it's just another ugly looking bike to me. It may ride great but I could never own something that I can't stand to look at. Ride a old triple Kawasaki to any bike hangout and they draw a crowd, that Yamaha wouldn't get a second look. Of course the triple may not make it home but that's half the fun right.

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. |
