2007 Yamaha YZF R6 Ownership Review After 7 Years | My Dream Bike

[@iaganfoss]

Saw one of these for sale up on craigslist for 6k, got heart eyes and everything when i saw it so im glad i found this review

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Oh sweet! Such a great bike!

[@zresurrectedwon]

Heyy, I remember when you bought the R6! I used to ride dirt bikes and motorcycles all the time as well until I got into cars. Lol. Glad to see it is going to a good home 😎

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Oh nice! Such a fun bike! We have been getting more into dirt bikes lately tho! So I still got some two wheel fun happening! But certainly having more fun in the cars now!

[@synatiousd247]

Just bout the same bike for $3500 23,000 miles garage kept. So nice 👍🏻

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

What a deal! Sold this for $5,600 ;)

[@oreally8605]

My late cousin almost killed me while I was riding on the back of his Yamaha V-Max i dig bikes 🏍 but from a distance. The kid buying it should have fun.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Yeah they can be dangerous. I always rode defensively and had a great time! I hope the new owner has just as much fun!

[@albertramstein8408]

I sold my R6 1999 recently, I know how you feel. 😭

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Such great bikes for sure!

Poor bike. Has an ugly wheel. Sell.

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

The wheels are pretty similar to every other sport bike

Time to trade it in for a 92 Saturn SL1.

I’ll stick with the Lambo lol

Yeah I'll pass lol. Saturn went away a long time ago. The Sky was cool back in the day. I remember looking at those at the dealers when I was a kid

Fun bike!

In Costa Rica this very same motorcycle Cost around 12 to 13 thousand dollars…

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Brand new or used? Thats a brand new price in the US.

[@mental87sixx4]

@@BrosFOURRSpeed A used one the year as yours… they’re way way expensive…

[@mthokozisizulu2879]

Is it possible to install a gear indicator or gauge on this bike, if I may ask?

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

That could be possible, but don't know the work or cost for something like that. Probably not worth it though.

[@mthokozisizulu2879]

@@BrosFOURRSpeed I see, no stress then, thanks for the advice...

[@marcusjurgens8883]

I’m looking at a used 2007 r6 with 35,000km what’s a good or reasonable price Canadian$

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

I'm not too sure in Canadian money. Just see what's out there. I sold this bike for $5,600 with 27k miles.

[@marcusjurgens8883]

@@BrosFOURRSpeed is it worth getting as my first bike?

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

@@marcusjurgens8883 depends on your skill set and interest level. I grew up riding dirt bikes and racing motocross. So for me this was a great first bike and I owned it for 7 years. If you are brand new to 2 wheels, maybe consider a used R3 or MT07. A few of my friends started on the 300 bikes but within 6 months got 600s. So it can depend on

[@veizii6096]

No experience with motorcycles. Do you think if I’m well disciplined with the rpm’s. Do you think it’s a poor choice for a first motorcycle 😊

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

If you have no experience, I'd go R3 or MT03. I've been riding dirt bikes my whole life, so this was easy for me. But those 300cc style bikes are great if you have no experience.

[@veizii6096]

@@BrosFOURRSpeed you don’t think I’d sell the r3 in a month or two ?

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

@@veizii6096 Honeslty depends on your interest in bikes once you have one. A few of my friends started with the 300s and in 6 months sold them for 600s. They love bikes. However another friend of mine has had his 300 for 5 years and has no interest in more power. So just depends on you if you end up liking bikes. Can go for a good used 300 and easily sell it for what you paid if you want to upgrade down the road

[@veizii6096]

@@BrosFOURRSpeed thanks for the advice man!! That really helps!

[@omgupta5090]

how did you run it without any tank grips?

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

I never needed that. Just has the rubber guard thing in the center that was there when I bought it. But my legs wrapped around the tank very well and with. my riding gear I never had issues sliding around on the bike.

[@patjones3520]

I'm so lost your saying it's your dream bike they stopped making them you own one and your like you know what I'm gonna just sell it

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

I've owned this for 7 years. That's hardly, 'just selling it'. I still love the bike, but as I mentioned in the video as life changes and I move on to new chapters of life, I don't find myself riding hardly at all. I'm guessing you are 17 and think your life will always be the exact same and you will never have new desires as you get older? With my Lamborghini that I own, I seem to gravitate towards driving that 99% of the time when I want a thrill. Bike has been sitting for months not getting used.

[@everydayfun654]

Did you sell it ?👀

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

Yeah, it sold quick!

[@TheeSchizoKing]

In Cali, 2007 R6 30k miles not original fairings for $5.6k? Fair ?

[@BrosFOURRSpeed]

I'd go lower. Sold this for $5,600 all original parts with 27k miles. I'd go closer to $5k if a bike has replacement fairings. What got damaged to have them be replaced?
