I had a 2000 600s crazy bike. Very fast always felt a bit top heavy to me. Sold it to a Harley rider as a winter bike. Kind of regret it however confidence is key on two wheels init. Being a bigger lad I feel cruisers are more suited to me. Carful with mileage on Fazers, speedo drive on front wheel very easy to disconnect and mileage stops climbing! A 20k example could very well be a 40k example

They dyno'd at c. 85 wheel HP, so Yamaha's claim of 95 crank is pretty honest. I had a 1999 in silver for 5 years (bought new). Some time in, when it was well loosened up, I wrapped myself around it (in leathers) and got the needle just nudging150MPH (long run-up on a deserted M-way, no gradient or wind)) which I reckon must have been a genuine 140+. The Scott Oiler fitted from new maybe helped. ETA >> mine 'chattered' below 2000RPM when rolling on until I adjusted the throttle position sensor (ignoring the spec) to make the ignition think it was further open and it was much improved. Also discovered I had the infamous backed-off engine sprocket nut when I went to replace it at c. 15K but thankfully no damage done (still had the original chain when I sold it at 22K, less than a cm of stretch in that entire time courtesy of the Scott Oiler, which I cranked up in the rain). ETA 2 >> what you say about the 'reassuring' amount of flex in the chassis was exactly the way I felt about it (nothing like the ridiculous corkscrewing and weaving that pre-1990's Japanese multis used to do of course).

Thanks for sharing mate, R8 Gated has got to be one of my favourite cars for the road, did you prefer it to the E92 M3? I'd love to drive one, especially the V10 as that's one of my favourite sounding engines! E90 could be a wicked does everything car, I reviewed one a few weeks ago and it was great, I didn't notice much difference compared to a E92! Expensive though!
@FIN4LBO55Ай бұрын
@@jamescrawshaw71 the r8 was incredible fun, it felt far more special to be in than the m3 even when just driving slow and the handling was another step up. I would say though the m3 was more fun to drive on the road when you were on it as you could get it to slide and step out under throttle whereas the r8 really needed to be on the track to try and induce such behaviour!
@jamescrawshaw71Ай бұрын
@@FIN4LBO55 sounds amazing, totally get what you mean about being more special when driving slowly. The m3’s can feel very plain unless you have a bit of an exhaust on it 😉 I guess the 4wd from the Audi removes that liveliness feeling you get from M3’s! As you said, they’re so easy to get the back end out it’s hard to find a car more fun to drive on the road without having to push it to crazy limits! Hopefully one day I’ll get one or get a drive in one 🙌
