almost got a 750 F a while back. THe bike had some kinda aftermarket exhaust 4-1 that roared ,plus the triple disc brakes meant it could actually stop .deal breaker was no title. I got this rule about that now....
I love the way the XS650 sounds and pulls but the stock seat was just hella uncomfortable for me ,kept pushing me forward toward the tank .
Now this triple , a shaft drive with a kickstart and triple disk brakes ! yahoo! It is very long too, I am guessing the wheelbase is longer than the Honda F for sure. It wouldnt fit on the trailer I brought to take it home. Ended up loading it sideways in the back of my Ram . Made the mistake of armoroiling the seat (I know I know , but it looks so nice)
and decided 10 minutes later to see if it really would do a 11 second quarter mile and almost slid off the seat from the torque! Ha!
Only problem with the bike now is the speedo is stuck at 30 mph, the odometer works so I am thinking that it is some crud built up inside. Great thing about these yamaha's are that you can easily get at the guts of a speedo with a paint key . Wish Honda woulda followed suit there!
