Re: Yamaha R7
Brilliant engine. It does have the feel similar to a V-Twin the way it's tuned. I'd rather have it in it's other variants of bike though.

Re: Yamaha R7
It shouldn't have been called an R7, more like an MT07R or something similar.

Re: Yamaha R7
Its about as much a R7 as a BMW Mini is a Mini. A no from me.
I'll always regret not buying that R7 in Fowlers all those years ago. Dream. Garage. Bike. This isnt. |

Re: Yamaha R7
When heard about this bike I immediately thought it's a modern day SV650S. A modest engine in sporty clothes. I think Suzuki missed a trick here.
