Premium Member foxedupone Posted April 13, 2016 Premium Member Share Posted April 13, 2016 Very excited for this Yamaha offering. Would be perfect companion to have along with FJ-09 in the garage. Can't wait to try one out, but maybe it's still too big to really be a dirtbike but definitely could handle such duty better then an FJ and be street capable as well. Look at that ground clearance!

Oops, any other manufacturer that recently brought out bigger, heavier bikes should be very concerned I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Africa twin did not hit the mark for this kind of bike. An FZ-07 based bike like this will be amazing. Great engine to for this kind of duty.

td90s Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 Been waiting for a modern replacement for the Transalp, this could be it. The new Africa Twin sure ain't. Would look good slotted between my FJ and WR250R! Let's hope it's everything everyone has been asking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
