  • The 2019 Yamaha Niken GT is an amazing motorcycle! I returned to southern California for another test ride of this amazing, leaning multi-wheel motorcycle. If you ever have the opportunity to ride one of these beasts, do it, you will not regret it! In this video, Eric (1Up5Down), and I eventually work our way to a meet up with Jaret Campisi where I also had the opportunity to ride his new bike build series 2019 Ducati xDiavel. That's an amazing bike, too! Enjoy the video and if you're in the market for a new Niken GT, check out Yamaha's special offer, here:
    www.yamahamotorsports.com/nik...
    Buyers of the 2019 Niken GT receive one (1) year factory warranty and a two (2) year Yamaha Extended Service (Y.E.S.) contract at no extra cost!

    I have not been able to ride very much since I'm an OTR (over the road) CDL Driver. It's been really ticking me off that I haven't been able to get more riding time.

      No. No. No. Jeez, would you try like 4 seconds reading up on this thing before typing? It doesn't stand up on it's own, it will fall over like a regular bike. The leaning mechanism is completely undamped and contributes nothing to static stability. And anyway, who tf is "too old for balancing"? The whole point of the Niken is that it has 80% more grip at the front, which is *very* useful, especially in the wet. Didn't you just listen to 650ib say how good it was and why it was so good? Why would you then come up with know-nothing criticism? Ride one, then you might have a valid opinion.
