“I bought the Yamaha XJ600S Diversion touring bike...”

written by josa on 23/03/2007

Good Points
Easy to ride
The engine doesn't need loads of revs to get going.
Quiet and fairly smooth engine.

Bad Points
Maybe the exhaust, which has been mentioned before.

General Comments
I bought the Yamaha XJ600S Diversion touring bike last June, as I was getting fed up of queueing in traffic. This has been a return to biking after a gap of about 15 years for me. It is the biggest bike I have ever owned, but I have found it easy to get on with and ride. I was very pleasantly surprised at the cost of insurance, which costs me less than £100 fully comprehensive (perhaps because I'm in my 50s!). I use the bike mainly for commuting to work; a distance of about 7 miles. The bike seems to return about 55 to the gallon, which I am more than happy with. It has served me well ever since. The only minor problem I have has have been the battery going flat; perhaps a new one is in order.



Overall, I have been very pleased with this bike, and I would recommend one to any new or returning biker.
