    When I owned the older FJ-09, I thought this engine would make a wonderful real-world sport bike. This machine is several levels fancier than I expected. Should be good.

    Honestly Im a huge fan of the triple motor and sports bikes, combine the two and itll be huge fun i say. Id live a daytona 765 but thats not happening so this is the next best thing. Granted it dies make about 30hp less than it should for displacement but thisll be blistering. Too bad it'll cost a bomb in india due to inport taxes!

I know My 07 R1 is the competitor so its not bias. and to design a 900 to run not even a second faster to 60 than a 600 is not aww factor, again this is just banter. I am not trying to argumentative.

      Yes, Australia gets screwed every time with new bike prices. Too many import taxes. Aussie riders are correct in thinking they're hard done by, but it's not Yamaha's fault. Talk to the gov'mnt.

      Yes, give us the reduced weight or some extra hp over MT09 but we get neither. Yamaha looking at profitability over keeping/existing gaining/new customers. In US just get 150 hp GSXR-750 for same price and better handling to boot

      Considering an R1 now costs $18,999, this is excellent value. Nothing costs the same as it did in 2007. It's nearly $1000 less than the GSX-R750 and has way more tech.

    • @sburns2421
      @sburns2421 Месяц назад

      R1 today is more extreme than almost anyone needs. In the real world this will be a great bike. If you have ever owned a triple sportbike you will know it is a great compromise.
      Brand new bike and still lower MSRP than GSXR-750 which is its natural rival.
      It will be very competitive in WSS too.
      BTW, pitting an '07 R1 against this bike in a track test might be surprising depending on the track. Less power but more electronics.
