    Good Points: Riding position, looks, sound, feel, build quality.


    Bad Points: Have to be in the mood to really enjoy it.


    General comments: I have had dozens of bikes, and this has to be the best built bike I have ever had. I even went on a tour to France on it and it proved to be perfectly comfortable for stints of 2 to 3 of hours at a time, My gearscac tailpack fitted well, and very secure with some of that grippy rubber mat stuff. I find the sports riding position very comfortable - double bubble screen fitted. I also prefer Yamaha for the longer 6000 mile service intervals, and also seem to cost less anyway. If kept above 10k revs will keep up with ANY bike around the twisties. I also think that Yam build quality is at least equal to Honda now - highly recommended.

    Had a Suzuki gixxer k5 1000 before the Yamaha R6, this is a superb bike....get one.
    Great front end 'feel'.....not experienced this much before. Road the demo bike and can't wait to get mine run in to experience the 12k rush again.

    Well think after reading MCN I would have stayed with Honda, but think id be wrong wasn't sure on the tyres felt the front go a twice after 200 mile but my 1st time on Dunlop then again not been the weather for it due to strong winds and spills on road still plenty for me to learn about it for me, well done Yamaha.
