Yamaha = GARBAGE
I'll never trust another yamaha. I had an 07 R6. Only 3000 miles and the motor took a complete dump. It fried my cylinder head, camshafts, lifters, and needed 13 of 16 valves to be reshimed to correct out of spec compression on every cylinder; not to mention impossible starts, loss of power, and the famous yamatick that nobody will ever find out what it truly is. Oil pressure would not hold to the factory spec of 11.6 psi and dropped to 5psi. Perfect oil pump, nothing in the strainer. Internal oil passage leak/defect. Racing they blow crank rod bearings, and riding them regular your looking at a shredded cylinder head due to oil pressure issues... Fly by wire is stupid as heck and the bike rode like dog sh-t......Not good bikes at all. Dont believe me......do research and you'll see for yourself. Ride Honda!
