Been considering trading in the Yamaha R6 as of late, but beforehand, I thought to make a video pointing out some of the things I dislike about the bike!
1. Rider Position - The ergonomics of this bike are great... for the track! It makes you lean way forward and pretty much be 'just' above the tucked position. So it's super easy to get tucked, but as it makes you lean forward, it puts a lot of stress on your wrists. It's an uncomfortable ride, which you can find article after article stating the same thing. I had to find out for myself, and I can confirm, yup, it's uncomfortable.
2. Power past 11k - All the power of the bike is in the top end. Once you hit 11,000 rpms, the bike becomes a total MONSTER! This is a pro AND a con. This would be great if applying it towards track riding, but for leisurely riding and commuting, having very little response and power in the low and mid range doesn't really make sense.
3. Seat height - Has one of the highest seat heights of the 600cc class bikes out there. Seat height is 33.5" and I'm 5' 10" (average height) and I 'mid foot' it. I'm basically on the balls of my feet while stopped with both legs extended. It makes it hard to maneuver while parking, as well as walking the bike while on it. Not fun!
4. There is no number 4. There were only those things. I loved the bike, that's why I bought it! I'd definitely recommend it if someone was looking to track it, but for a commuter bike, it's not as friendly as some of the other sport bikes out there in the same class. So, entirely depends on what you're going to be using it for!
As always, thanks for tuning in all! Be sure to Like / Comment / Subscribe!
Till next time, you all ride safe out there, & stay vigilant!
Deuces!

BEER?
Lots of people say the channel has helped them in some way, be it the "How To" videos (mostly,) or other random videos. People are always saying they'd love to buy me a beer. I love beer. If you're one of those people, feel free to buy me a beer! :)
