'92 Yamaha FZR 600

#1 Unread post by TxCZShooter »

Would this be a good first bike? Looks like riding position may be too hunched, but won't know until you get on it. 16.6K miles for 14 yr old bike. Too much for a beginer?
Pic looks clean...hmm....

most people here are very conservative. they will advise against that bike. it's rated at 92bhp.

regarding the seating position. you should sit on it and see if it's something you think you can get used to.

good luck whatever you decide. :D

Sorry, didn't know where to look for the specs.....but I can see where it's got some power. Thanks for the quick reply.

no worries.

i have nothing against people choosing non-newbie friendly bikes as 1st bike.

but i certainly can see the advantage of getting a low powered beater bike to learn on.
