Cager on three wheels?
Yeah mate I agree, I bought one, took a test ride and a no brainer - you cheat death compared to two wheel bikes. Only after I had bought one did I realise how good that engine is. But the front end is incredible - I really don't care what you call it - or what category the Niken get puts in. It is it's own thing. The principle itself - that two front wheels are better than one for grip and stability is a slam dunk. That Yamaha have made real the principle in such a seemingly considered and perfect way takes sport and sport-touring road riding into the starship realm. These things ride like a luxo goldwing that carves like a 600 super sport..only way more assured and stable. No shit it's something like that. The fairing sucks and in the end you'll need an Ohlins shock and stickier tyres ...and you'll never sell it.
Now this,is a classic Cager review,the kind that first drew me to your channel.1000 thumbs up!
Of all Niken related videos - this one was all I needed to make the decision and get one of my own. Thanks Cager!
Hell yes!!
Best RUclips bike channel!
Contrats cager!
Awesome review cager and it helped me choose this Niken and I absolutely love it. Thanks for your time and fun example of this superb bike. Take care 😆☀️👌 from uk England

"Hail Megatron!" LMAO 😂😂
Brilliant Cager! Fantastic bike, fantastic review!
I like the fact that my Niken annoys people. 😁
Loooved this, great to see you laughing on a review video again. I could hardly watch when you turned traction control off 😯😆
amazing video,,,, awesome bike....... good work yamaha.. cager u as well...
How does it compare to the MP3 500 or TriCity 125?
Thanks, I always enjoy your videos.
Why would you want a 700 version?
I guess you mean a narrower and perhaps lighter version for commuting.
Have you ever ridden the Piaggio MP3? There is a 500cc version of a CVT-transmission scooter of this nature. Two wheels at the front and one at the back. I guess you want something sporty like this, though.
Greetings from Greece Cager, that is the best video of yours I've seen so far.
Can you tell me what electronic equipment you are using, because your sound and video is awesome... Thanks, great to have you back
Bought a Tricity based largely on your review and you were spot on. Now I guess I have to upgrade
I just recently got a piaggio mp3. It's my first motorcycle in life. I now consider it my trainer bike for the Niken.
Your review was awesome, I was grinning from ear to ear with you. It’s not the first time someone has wowed about the Niken, check out, The Brit and the Blonde they loved it.
Hi Cager. Great review. In your opinion, what's the market for these 3 wheel bikes. I only ever see commuters on them and so I assumed that they were for people who wanted the commuting advantages of a bike but too nervous to ride around on a scooter. Whereas your (excellent) review shows it as a concept machine with great riding performance on fast twisty roads. Who is the intended market?
My licence provide me to ride cars or 3 wheller motorcycles (UK). So i'm the target :D
great bike, so many emotions, super!!!
Infectious fun !
Podes fazer review à Benelli BN 125?
This guy is introducing a 3 wheeled Miata. He likes it.
I love how excited you are on this Niken also the fact you purposely fucked up is wha got me interested in one and yes Cager because of your awesome exciting video I bought one. It’s soo freeking awesome. Jim Bob from uk👍🏻🏍💪👌
Wonderful!
I love this bike so much I'm buying one
Cager meu amigo, excelente review e teste. Ficaste rendido. Aquilo que disseste, por favor façam uma 700,...deixa-te disso 😂😂😂. Mas essa mota é má para ti, passavas a vida a portareste mal 😂😂😂 forte abraço ✌️
i saw a 125 cc scooter like that with the two from wheels once , from peugeot i think
When will you reveal yourself? Or not, and is there a reason?? Thx
what is this beautiful city ?
2019 Triumph 1200 Scrambler next, maybe?
Hell Yeah...
Seen it on road 2 days ago (england, midlands)
I wonder if Yamaha actually sold one of these??
I think they can't make enough of them apparently..
Does it have reverse gear??
No.
My question is, do you ever answer questions???
It's hard to believe it feels like riding a motorcycle, even though all the reviewers all say it does. The looks really throw your expectations of.
More guts than brains in this review :)
The Niken is a nice concept but I think it solves problems that never existed in the first place for somebody in the market for a MT09.
I can totally see the sport touring guys with big heavy machines , lots of extras and the engine to pull all that, to opt for such a thing.(Sorry, but in my mind the MT09 is a Hooligan bike! A brilliant one )
Give it to Yamaha's FJR1300! There is the customerbase with the money and the appreciation for the safety aspect.
he sounds like the double rainbow guy lol
Oh My Bloody god, time for me to sell da Bergman which I bought after seeing your vid mate(a very long time ago) and save up for one of these, but please be aware that in the old days (as I am old) 230Kg was not a problem so this will be fine for us older guys....super video..
Who will buy this over a tracer 900 / 9 (GT)?
Take it for an off road test. It would be interesting.
Hmm...15 inch front wheels and only one maker making them. Does not look too good.
cager on three wheels
Cager dude, it's a seriously great bike, I've ridden one and I'll buy one, but you don't need to sound like Yamaha paid you to review it so effusively :)
cager you should know better, guincho is Cascais not Sintra ;) keep up the good work
Looks expensive as heck. Looks really comfy but ugly like nothing I saw in three wheels. But just a personal opinion, if you buy it, and you like it, thumps up. As always, thank you for your efforts and time for doing this video.
"Hail Megatron"
Glad to see the lack of ignorant blind hatred in the comments. I suppose I should expect nothing less from Cager's audience.
Ahem. CageronTHREEwheels*
Hail Megatron 😂🤣😂👍
If this had the DCT transmission from Honda, it would be an ideal, ultimate driving machine for 21st century. Or let me rephrase it, if one of the DCT 700/750 Hondas had the Niken's front wheels, it would be an ideal, ultimate ...
Not enough power.
Get the Niken and install the Rekluse auto clutch.
I think you like this bike ....
I appreciate the innovation in this. But they are failing in the most important area of innovation, which is electric.
3 wheeled stuff is important, but they needed to have some proper electric bikes out by now. My brother is ditching his NMax to buy a NIU NGT. Because Yamaha have refused to provide a good electric scooter. They might announce one at the end of this year, and then release middle of 2020? Way too late.
Thanks for mentioning the NIU. I had not heard of it. I checked it out.
Fook electric bikes.
I wouldnt drive that thing seems scary
Honestly I think you're just afraid to lean properly, I can lean just as far on my motorbike, it's just placebo
You made me buy Mt07, you made me buy XSR 900, you made me buy Yamaha Tricity... fuck I think I have to buy the Niken as well. I think I should stop watching your videos 😁
Blah blah blah
uuuuuuuglyyyyyyyyy
