sorry I couldn't be better at copy and paste..:- a great bike anyway!

Comments : Unfortunately the Yamaha RRP prices have gone out-of-kilter with other manufacturers offerings, maybe they need to lower the prices??. It's a great "low-tech" bike, which we all love, but the price-tag needs to be realistic. The brakes are really not that good on the R, so a "6" was generous! If they could make it 6 speed, AND make the gearbox robust with it, it would be the biggest improvement in my own opinion. Fortunately, I bought a 2 year old one with 120 miles on it for a very good price, otherwise my "Price" would be quite a bit lower than a "9" if I had bought a new bike.....but it IS the best bike I have owned....

Comments: reliability is excellent, apart from the fork seals which have been replaced THREE TIMES!!!!! on the right hand side already. I only hope this won't happen again. Only other bad points: spokes are cr*p quality. Engine idle speed needs careful adjustment on regular basis to avoid engine cutting out. No rev counter. Checking oil level is a PITA (why no site glass??). Horn not loud enough.

opinion after 23 thousand km....
