Global Moderator sorkyah Posted January 5, 2016 Global Moderator Share Posted January 5, 2016 Thats only (USD)700ish more than the fz07..... hmmmm Might need a trip up to canadia ATGATT... ATTATT, two acronyms I live by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Mr.Puss Posted January 5, 2016 Premium Member Share Posted January 5, 2016 I'd still pick the FZ over this one. The trustfund hipsters up here will gravitate towards this bike like hipsters to a 6-er of Pabst BR. Crush your enemies. See them driven before you. Hear the lamentations of their women. Fuss Life.

Global Moderator jeffkisthename Posted January 5, 2016 Global Moderator Share Posted January 5, 2016 For the price, I'd rather just get the FZ09. I really like the look of the FZ09, but that would have been a bad bike for me to have started on. I have already done two accidental wheelies. Had to learn about instant torque right off the bat. Can't imagine how I would have have handled any of the Yamaha 3 cylinder options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ralph Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 It looks good and I love 3 pot engines but a lot more bike than I need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Global Moderator Guru Posted January 5, 2016 Global Moderator Share Posted January 5, 2016 I love it, but like @ralph says, it's to much bike for me too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beemer Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Good! At least it looks better than the FZ-09 (IMO) with it's old school styling and with that, the rear fender doesn't look so bad on it. Better than it did on the 07. Gotta love that slipper clutch! Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member so1102 Posted January 5, 2016 Premium Member Share Posted January 5, 2016 I think it's pretty badass myself (and I have neither a beard nor a man-bun). If this had been available at this time last year, I may have ended up with one instead of the 07 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member grahamfz07 Posted January 6, 2016 Premium Member Share Posted January 6, 2016 Cool, I'd take a yellow one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yamahaha Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 Its a good looking machine other than the knacker-whacker on the rear fender. If you've ever had to abandon ship you know what I mean. Would have been nice had they tried to give it a little bigger gas tank. 14 litres isn't much for the 07 so its gotta be brutal with the bigger three cylinder. Slipper clutch, abs, and traction control are features many may like to have. After a full season of riding my 07, no other offerings can sway me. I'm still in love with the little beauty.

lbv Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 $1,700 CAD more than the FZ-09 - ouch! I wish the XSR700 looked as good though ... not sure we're getting that one yet though. Current ride = 2014 Moto Guzzi California 1400 Custom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
