We had 30 minutes to test drive the car, but we just went back to our parking lot to take pictures and drive around the residential area in the weekend shopping traffic.So, it is not very helpful. And as usual, this is the ramblings of an amateur.
In the end, I could only use 2nd gear during the test drive...... If you want to drive this thing around, you can only use 3rd gear on a normal road (and you'll still lose your license)......
Hmmm. To be honest, I didn't really get it....... It's not like I imagined it beforehand."The violent side."It was a very easy bike to ride, but of course, it didn't show any trace of....
Lovely place.
Distinctive design
As you would expect from YAMAHA, the details are very elaborate. I have a feeling that I'll like it once I get used to the frontal face, which seemed novel right after its debut. However, the MT-09 recently got the same face.
mountain of electronic control
The BMW S1000R I rented the other day.As with the "Mere Old Man", it has a mode switching function that changes not only the power and torque converter intervention, but also the suspension setting. At first, I started driving in mode D (lowest power and highest torque converter intervention), but I found that even in the city, it was very difficult to drive in this mode."slow...."Before returning the bike, I even tried Mode B. Before returning the bike, I even tried MODE B. There was quite a difference between MODE D and B. It was interesting, and I think MODE D can be ridden on rainy days without fear. By the way, it seems that you can freely customize the power, trakon intervention, and suspension settings for each mode.
Easy-to-read color TFT LCD meter
There are many vehicles with LCD meters that have too much information and make it difficult to see the details, but YAMAHA is known for its design... I guess that's why. The margins are well laid out and the meter is easy to read from the moment you get in. By the way, when the key is turned on, the display momentarily flips over to a white background (see the video above), but after not liking the flipped LCD on the Ninja 1000 (which didn't have a brightness adjustment mechanism), I was relieved when the display returned to normal. w
Comfortable riding position
The last two Stofis I've ridden had a slightly more forward lean than the Ninja 650, but the MT-10 is just as comfortable as the Ninja 650. The MT-10 is just as comfortable as the Ninja 650, and because of the size of the bike, my lower body is not cramped at all. The MT-10 is as comfortable as the Ninja 650.
fast
I'm only in 1st gear at 5,000 rpm, but I can tell. She's so fast!
(Some of them are limited to SP specifications.) Luxurious equipment
It has the aforementioned color TFT LCD gauges, OHLINS electronic suspension front and rear, cruise control, a quick shifter (only for the up direction), and a cigar socket for power outlets. After adding the ETC and heated grips, I'm sure I won't have any complaints about the functionality.
Hmm? What is it?
Most of the following"With my usage, skills and physique....."I'm not sure what to say.......
Anxious about very low speed driving
It comes with both feet, up to the ball of the big toe (the bulge at the base of the thumb on the sole of the foot). The weight of the car is 212 kg, which is on the light side for this class, but the high center of gravity, which may be the highest among the liter class cars I've driven, and the low torque at very low speeds, which may be the weakest, made me feel a little uncomfortable when turning left in narrow residential areas or at narrow intersections on the way down. If you're not careful, you'll end up with a standing gash....... This is a good idea.
Ear-splitting mechanical noise
As you can see in the first video, the mechanical noise of the engine is quite loud. When driving in the city with only 4,000 rpm at most, most of the noise that reaches your ears is the mechanical noise and intake noise, and not the exhaust noise that only a four-cylinder engine can produce.
No clutch lever adjustment mechanism.
I was surprised when I tried to adjust it a bit during the process: .... The price of the car was almost 2 million, but there was no adjustment mechanism for the clutch lever!.....
The only places where you can turn the car around are highways and circuits.
I think it is ..... Even if the bypass is flowing at a reasonable speed, such a speed would be a walk in the park for her, and I don't have the skills to use this machine on a winding road with the engine running.
Winter Glove makes it difficult to put the blinker to the left.
The cruise control system is located on the right side of the blinker switch, and that also made it difficult for me to turn on the left blinker. However, this would not be a problem if I were to use light gloves for spring and fall.
summary
So, this is a motorcycle with too much performance for me. I felt like I was being carried around by the bike the whole time. Yes, it was super fast, but the bike was running fast on its own........ Even if you get used to riding it and can handle it, you can easily imagine that you will lose your license if you run the engine on public roads. It takes a lot of self-control.
The only bike I've ridden that can be directly compared to this is the BMW S1000R that I rented the other day, but the S1000R is better in terms of road worthiness (compared to the SP spec) and the BMW is more affordable.
It's a bike for people who are younger and want to use it for everything from street riding to the track! This is a bike for younger people who want to use it for everything from street riding to the track. It's too big for a guy like me who uses it from street riding to touring. Even if I bought one, I probably wouldn't be able to use it to its full potential.....orz
