Yamaha literally has god tier engineers, they tuned the LFA exhaust for Toyota/Lexus to sound musical, and figured out how to make normal wood sound like wood that's been aged for hundreds of years that other high end piano makers use in their $100k+ pianos
I think the LFA sounds like trash, it's way too high pitched. The stock R8 v10 sounds better imo
@@Daniel-dj7fh lol u might need your ears checked
the lexus LFA revs so fast, an analog tach is too slow so they had to make it digital
I'm sure Yamaha has done a few other engines with manufacturers. I'm sure they did the head/intakes for the old V8 Ford Taurus SHO in the early 90s
@@Daniel-dj7fh theres a reason LFA's cost 50% more than they did 10 years ago and r8's from 10 years ago cost 50% less.
the r8 is a german sportscar dressed like a supercar. its a 911 without the pedigree, or a marked up corvette/r35 in inoffensive executive trim.
@@OttiengerThe whole engine for the original SHO was Yamaha-sourced
The R1 is truly the best beginner bike because if you don't ever have to leave 1st gear driving around town, you get to focus on being awesome instead of paying attention to pesky gears
hahahahah
Lol you guys are so noob😂
It’s the same with my R6 it goes 80 mph in 1st gear
I'm a bit of a Yamaha fanboy myself, but of an entirely different breed - I learned on a V Star 250, thrashed a SR 400, and now have a V Star 950 Tourer that I took 2,000 mile road trip with on a weekend. Legit spent 40 hours on the saddle within a week. That V Star 950 has over 35k miles on the clock and still chugging. I can confirm, I'm not sure Yamaha could make a bad bike if they tried.
The Tracer 9 gt is the ultimate one bike garage bike.
The new Tracer 9 gt+ ? Yep, rery nice!
Nah... you really need a off road bike and a 2 bike garage. My own combo is a MT09 SP.. and a Surron. Works for me. 😉
@@paulhope3401 well yeah, if you need offroad that's a diff story
I have been riding an FE350 for 4 years… this is likely my next bike to add to the arsenal, but really eyeballing that Tenere as well. I need future me to tell me which to pick
@@EricLouisYoung i mean put some « off Road » tires and have fun!
No MT-10?! I just got a 23 MT-10 two months ago and can say it is worth every penny!!
Surprised the XSR900 or MT10 weren’t mentioned!
The 22+ XSR900 is Yamaha’s best bike by far. I’m not bias at all just because I own one. 😃
This...
Also not biased XSR900 2022 is a love letter from Yamaha to its fans.
@@photonz1812we need more aftermarket! Lol
Unbiased 2023 XSR 900 vote here 😂
Defo my next bike!!!!
You forgot about the Yamaha MT 10. Crossplane fun with a comfortable ride and 6 axis IMU for $14,200. Quick shifter and cruise control. 2022 and newer. I bought one in March and I couldn't be happier with it.
I like this breakdown of the whole lineup. Great video idea
If anyone is looking for a used FJR 1300, most reliable and trouble free models were made between 2008 and 2012. On the 2008 model they sorted out their gearbox to be fool proof (it helps since you never know how it was abused by a previous owner and it was a bit of a soft spot before that). Generator, wiring, radiator and cooling issues were sorted just before that. But after 2012 they went for restyling and started jamming more and more electronics into it. If you want to be able to fix almost everything yourself in the very unlikely scenario when something goes wrong - 2008 to 2012 production years are ideal. Later models require competent mechanics at your local Yamaha dealer.
After more than a million miles and riding for almost 60 years, I made it till now, I'm in my 70ts and ride an FJR 1300 & a 2023 Kawasaki Z H2 (bat out of hell on steroids). I refuse to let the old men crawl into me, getting harder, nevertheless, still riding every day. The FJR is a keeper, love this bike, had multiple Gold Wings, like the FJR better, matter of taste and how you feel the bike. The beauty of motorcycle riding, it never gets old. Many thanks for your good reviews. I subscribed to your channel.
You go sir!
Keep on riding, stay safe.@@shush2534
Got an MT09 2019…. Absolutely love it and no complaints. So fun
i owned a wr250r for over 9 years before selling it last year. i also deeply regret letting it go. so fun and simple to ride. only issue i had was with the fuel pump. after replacing it there were no issues
Love my FJR, it's an incredible bike, power and comfort in spades, and never misses a beat.
Love mine as well, Iam a geezer now and the comfort, performance and torque is amazing. For such a heavy pig it carves nicely, no regrets.
The Yamaha VMAX needed a spot here. It’s technically a cruiser but will leave many of these bikes in the dust. Love my ‘09.
My first bike was a Yamaha Stryker
Wr 250r owner here couldn't be happier with the choice yammie you are a big reason for that so thank you
I know you’re having fun 😅
Same here!
Would you say it’s a good first bike? I found one in the 7K range and might pull the trigger on it!
@michaelklein2858 it's a great first bike to learn on. Parts are cheap, and you won't feel bad using it for what it's for. It is very easy to ride for those who are taller than average. I'm 6' and can flat foot it. 7k is higher than they were new. I got my new for around 6k. You can find one cheaper if you keep looking.
@@TJY2K Mine is a 2013 that i got for 3800$ but does it really matter?all the year models are pretty much the same since 2008 and stupid reliable you can't go wrong just wait to get one in the winter prices are way lower+
MT-07 was my driving school bike so i`m familiar with it, not only learned how to drive but passed the exam one one too. Apart from riding couple of mopeds many years ago (without license) the MT-07 was my first proper bike that i drove for the first time, the driving school just handed me this and somehow a total noob like me managed to survive the first driving lesson on this "big" bike.
Wow, my MSF BRC course had Yamaha TW200s and Kawasaki 125s. MT-07 is pretty powerful for noobs. Bet it was fun though!
My MSF class used 500cc bikes which seemed like a fair compromise between the useless 250cc ones most MSF class use and real bikes
@@cannistershot2277 In Europe where i live there are several tiers of MC license divided by age barrier and performance. By the time i took a motorcycle license i was old enough to apply for the highest one, i did and the school gave me the MT-07. I was surprised myself because i though i would get a smaller bike to begin with, but no they gave me MT-07 straight away. Would not say it`s a good idea to drive that big bike right off but that is how it went down...
@@kebabaluba all of our schools have mt07 35 kw and a unlocked version , depending on what course you are taking
literally the same dude. Except all i rode before was scooters 50cc. I was like "you want me to ride on this thing?, you know i never sat on a "real" bike!" :D after 2 rides i am very surprised how well i can handle this thing, like i never did something else...since i dont have any reference id say its a good beginner bike :D
Yamaha have so many awesome bikes. My two personal favorites are the XVS1100 V-star/Dragstar Custom (not the classic) As it's a really fun and "lightweight" Cruiser that can handle corners. And the other one is the tallboy Tracer 9 GT. As I'm to tall and big for any of the sportbikes or naked bikes I have to go to the sports tourers - And that's where the Tracer 9 shines like a big red diamond in the Motorcycle market.
I have an 82 XJ650 and a 2012 FJR1300. Love both of them, though haven't rode the XJ in a very long time. One day it will become a bobber. The FJR was worth every penny.
Love my 21 MT10. Thing will wheelie 5th gear at 100+ with no clutch, just a good yank and aggressive snap of the throttle. (On a slight upward grade 🤫) It's ridiculous. For the price, you get basically super duke 1290r performance for thousands upon thousands less. Plus they sound way better.
Impossible to find a better crankshaft. A glorious piece of metaphysical engineering, I love my '16 TechBlack, keeping it forever.
Have been on my zx6r since 2007 and just recently got my 2023 mt09, loving the torque.
The XJ6 is also great, the naked 600 is an incredible starter bike
I absolutely love my 2022 XSR700. It really does feel like a bike I could keep forever in the garage just based off of the looks, sound, and how light it feels. Couldn’t be happier with it. Maybe one day I’ll get a 900 too.
Sat on one not to long a gap, and man that thing looks timeless! Definitely on my radar as a first bike
@@Butts0hboi It’s so awesome and I still to this day haven’t seen another one at a bike night or similar. The 900s are more common in the states and even those are more rare. The 700 is a blast and gets comments all the time. Not leaving the garage anytime soon.
Damn. Did NOT expect the FJR1300 to make the list, especially from Yammie
It would be definitely by on MY yamaha list
When flashed, it makes as much torque as the friggin Ktm Superduke
FJR is a worst motorcycle I’ve ever ridden. It’s objectively the worst thing in the world(except BMW boxers)
@@spetz911 you have to be trolling
@@_herb it’s heavy to toss it around on twisty roads, too long to go on roads with traffic lights such as HWY 1, it has a strange sitting position for freeways with very little wind protection. The engine has some annoying vibrations on acceleration. Breaks are very strong, but they are difficult to apply unless you want to make a complete stop.
PS side bags are the smallest across tourers and very flimsy, the bike itself looks and feels like hello from 90s
I just got my first R1. 2005 R1 and I have converted from the Red Team to the Blue team!
The R6 is the reason I fell in love with 2 wheels 😍
I have a 2022 MT09 and I love it. Such a fun bike, with a bunch of tech. I really enjoy the usable power, and the cp3 sound.
Im relearning on the same 06 fzr that I used a lot when I was younger .still so comfy and dependable
Currently riding through the Swiss Alps on my 21 Mt09 Sp ! Absolutely mint
I still love my 2nd gen MT-09. You can't go wrong with any of the MT or XSR bikes.
I remember that my father had an FJR1200 from the early 2000's and coming back from the Valencia GP in 2006 we were passing the guys on their GSXR's, ZXR's, CBR's, R1's and whatnot like if we were changing channels while watching TV. I also remember seeing the faces of those guys looking so tired and their backs hurting while my father and I would be sitting comfortably and barely affected by the wind.
I'm also quite sure that as soon as I have the money I will replace my Ninja 400 with an MT07 or MT09 (or maybe the XSR900).
Yamaha is also my favorite brand!
Yeah you can pass GSXR's, ZXR's, CBR's and R1's on a moped so your story only says your dad was going at greater speed than the other bikes.
One of my favorite parts in this video about Yamaha's was the advertising for the RockForm phone holder. I did not currently have a motorcycle, I would love to get back and do it again. But if I did, I would get a RockForm phone holder.
Love my WR, really want a cross plane now tho… thinking the XSR
My first motorcycle is the fz6. Love it.
Yes…Suzuki…Suzuki …Suzuki ….Suzuki next please…keep watchingggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg
I have a 2006 FZ1 and love it, its like if the fjr, the r1, and the mt09 had a baby. Its a naked touring bike driven by the same motor thats in the r1 just detuned a hair to make more power down low.
New Rider on MT-25. Loving it so far!
Well I can just agree with your listing by looking in my garage, where a MT09 '17 and a R6 '05 are parking side by side :)
You took the time to talk down to the TW200 and the XT250 in the video, and yet they are both FANTASTIC bikes for what they are built for. These bikes have history, longevity and pedigree that many of the bikes in your video do not.
I love my 08 FZ1, that sweet early 2000s r1 engine with an upright seating position and awesome looking street fighter, it’s a win win and runs you around $5k
Feet are so scrumptious!
Oh baby.
Yammieeeeeeee!!!!
Yes you still are my Favorite Funny Guy 😂😂😂😂😂
Had all kinds of sport liter bikes all my life but in 2017 i got a budget bike the fz07 and can vouch that besides the crappy suspension the bike was a ton of fun and so light felt like a bicycle ride! Then i was in between the mt09 or the gsxs 1000 a year ago and got the suzuki with 0 regrets! The best bike for the $ out there and a ton of fun!
as a 2013 fjr owner i love this bike. very quick around town. 0 to 60 in 2.9 and 100 in 6.6. A 10.9 second quarter at 122. after 100 it slows down alot but its one of the best bikes for usable power and all day comfort. I bought mine for 7k with 30k miles exhaust, tune, crash bars, new tires, new oil, and id say i got a very fair deal. you can find these with 15k miles for 7k.
I'm about to turn 64 and I'm 5' 11." I had a GS750E 40 years ago. I bought my MT-03 seven months ago and there was no riding in between. So I'm a born-again beginner, I guess. You're right about a lot of things regarding the bike's negatives but equally correct that for some people, they are positives. I bought the bike because I wanted to replace my daily driver car. Lower fuel consumption. Lower maintenance cost. Lots more fun. Smaller but still a full sized bike. Perfect for the city.
With the population explosion in our area, the freeway has become our own local Thunder Dome and I have little interest or need to venture forth with only two wheels thereupon. All the skills I didn't know when I had my 750 I am now learning on the MT, and it's all coming fast because the bike is a learning machine. I can't imagine a bike that could make skill building easier or more fun. And with our rather relaxed little city and our lovely country roads, the bike is great fun and, as you say, hard to get hurt on. For me, it's only drawback is that, while it is great therapy, it's not a relaxing thing to ride. Even around town, it screams that it wants to go faster. It's just happier above 6000 rpm. I don't get to do that much and I don't really want to. It only chills out audibly when going downhill where are the revs can drop to 3000 or so. It just sounds cranky.
After a couple years with the MT-03 I'll either learn to relax with the screaming during long country drives or I'll be looking for something a little bigger, a little heavier, with a longer wheelbase and a gentler voice. For now, I have a lot to learn about riding. By the way, it will get a wheelie up. I saw a guy do it, so I'll get it eventually. What I really want is a stoppie!
Rock on Papa Noob!
This helped so much. Yamaha rules
One thing to mention is that for some recent mt 07s there is a issue that prevents abs from working as intended which can result in you unwillingly doing a stoppie when having to break super hard
Forgot all about the Tracer 7 adventure style bike, that one is a beast as well. lightest in class and as much fun as the MT07

Yammie what do u think about the FZ series. I have a FZ6 and I love it. I’ve road MTs and they just feel like small lunch box of launch. While the FZ feels like tall r6. Thought ?
Yamie you forgot the Yamaha tdm with out it today the sport touring motorcycles that so much I love wouldn’t be a thing. Best seller in Europe for years 🎉
Yes you need to make one for Suzuki and possibly the nakeds versus nakeds which one is better at handling and power and all that kind of stuff
Are the Tenere 700 and 900 not available in the states? I hear they are also pretty good!
I love YAMAHA products. I'm 54 years old and in 1980 I had the junior high God status of owning a YZ80. I play a Yamaha bass guitar with Alembic pickups and preamp, a Yamaha PB-1 bass preamp through a Crown power amp, and I ride a 2011 Yamaha Star Stryker 1304cc. Is there anything Yamaha can't do well ?
I’d really love to get a first bike but not sure where to turn at this point. I’m a 38 year old 5’11” 240 lb guy who’s never ridden more than an early ‘90s trail bike as a teenager. Do I go with a sport cruiser? Just go all out and go cruiser? (love the idea of a sport bike but am convinced I would look obnoxious and ridiculous on one - too old; too big.) Live in a rural subdivision outside San Antonio, TX, if it matters.
@yammie noob Do this kinda of video for all/most of the motorcycle makers 🎉
Yammie Yamaha Revs Your Heart and Soul 😂😂😂😂😂😂🤘🏼🤙🏼
I love my mt 07 but ngl been really thinking about trading it in for an r7 😂 only reason i dont is because im thinking of getting an rs660/mt 09 if and when they drop one and using the mt as a nice little work commuter only 😂
That rock form mount better be the last mount I ever buy for that price
Eddit I'm pretty sure it will be when I do finally get one
you forgot about the yzf600r thundercat such a classic and the only confortable all rounder sport touring f bike
all of them
Might as well do Suzuki!
Having ridden the FJR1300, I can assure anyone you can literally ride that bike in 10° (F) weather and be comfortable since you literally don’t feel a lick of wind… add in a heated seat and grips with quality gear, you stay warm plenty warm…

Strange how the brain works. Till you said your YT name I always read it as Yamaha Noob lol.
My first bike was an 2006 R6. Second bike was an 2007 R6. I now ride an R3. It is easier on the back.
I could never go from a r6 to a r3. God bless you
Should I upgrade from my 2011 FZ6 (not the FZ6R or XJ6, the proper one) to an MT07/09 or R6/7?
I love Yamaha. 1st one I had xt250 1980
are you gonna make videos for the other three big bois?

I wish for WR300R - that would be bestseller.
Its the Tracer 9 gt 2022 for me
Have you looked at the tracer 9+
Its insane how much tech they put on a sport tourer
I really want a bolt but i might want to wait for a little stronger engine!
A month ago, I switched from 2023 MT-07 to 2023 MT-09SP.
Fck MT-07, go for MT-09 with the Dominator HP3 exhaust. 👌🏻
Listen, Yamaha should make a "Rebel" line with the Bolt series using the R3, R7, R9, and R1 motors.
81 850 Special. Outdated but still fun.
Fazer S2, really nice bike.
Tenere 700 World Raid totaly worth it !
Just did over 9000 kms in 11 days on a 2003 Roadstar Absolutely no trouble and very comfy. I am 71 yrs old and did 1200 kms (800 miles) the first day. Test drove a big Honda very uncomfortable. Nothing but Yamahas for this old man.
Could have at least nodded towards the XSR900 in the MT09 family. 🤷♂️
Was hoping he would as I own an xsr900 myself.
XSR900 is superior to the MT09 honestly.
@@larryhouse3776 same thing but I loveeeee the look of the xsr over the MT. You don’t see them as often either.
It really is a nice bike to ride. Too bad it’s so damn ugly.
@@PetjeWinner haha. You either hate em or love them.
I still have my ‘87 XT350 as a daily driver, I wish they would make them agaim, because it’s showing its age
You didn't get tdm 900s in the states?or tracer 9s?
I got the extra magnet for my rokform case and it stayed on my tank at 103mph 😂
My first bike was a Yamaha Virago 250. Bike was bullet proof. Great for country road cruises and getting around town. I have a Shadow 1100 now, but somedays I miss that little bike
Ha ha ha 👌👌👌👌 crazy Yammzzz, I am proudly not a expert rider so I will still paty that one day I can own an MT 03 oar aand an R 3. But fun, this is one pill that I crave like just as much as a contraceptive for men.👌👌👌
What about the R3 is it good as a beginner bike bec in my country i can only have 48hp
“Yam(i)ahaNoob”I just got it, after all this time 😮
You have never done a video mentioning the XJ6. Any reason why?

Getting an R125 2023 soon
MT09 or R1 for me.... Can't decide.
