2011 Yamaha XJ6 Diversion Walkaround

[@RedandWhiteRebel]

Very nice bike, agree with you about the swing arm though.

Hi Grumpy Bike Wizard. Bought one of these 2 months ago as a 2nd bike to do some weekends away. It hasn't happened. I don't know about you, but I have found that seat agony after half an hour. Which is a shame because apart from that seat it's not a bad bike. Anyway, last night I received a Top Sellerie Comfort Seat (for £150 special offer) and will try it out for the next few days. It will determine whether I keep it or not. Rides safe, mate.

Just bought a diversion. What screen did you get? Also, can you fit the pannier bars with a yam top box mount still?

[@vipersyl]

what kind of SW-Motech handguards are those?

[@Horche]

Hello there and many thanks for the video!!! I ride the same bike for the last couple of years and I would like to ask you a question regarding the equipment of your bike. I am interested in the SW-Motech handguards and I would like to ask if you had any problems with those? I mean could you fully turn the bars left or right with them? Did they mess with the windsreen, mirrors or fairings??? Thanks again in advance and all the best!

[@Grumpybikewizard]

They would touch the fairings when the steering was fully locked, but not to any great extent.

I love this bike and I want it for first bike .Do you believe that it s a good bike for a begginer?

[@Grumpybikewizard]

Yeah it's a decent first 'big bike I think. Very forgiving and easy to work on.

Hello I see that you have experience in conducting er6f Kawasaki and Yamaha XJ6 Diversion. I wonder about buying one of them. Can you help me in choosing króry more at ease on the road and gives you more fun to drive? Which do you think is a better alternative to the city and a small tourism? We appreciate the guidance of experienced riders. Regards.

[@Grumpybikewizard]

I think they are about the same. The big difference for me was ABS for safety. I also prefer the indicator lights on both sides on the ER-6F. I think the Diversion for touring - it has more luggage options and is better designed for it.

Hi, great video and of course a nice bike. i am just looking at one to buy, i haven't actually went to look at the bike yet because i am thinking between several bikes. i only have one question. What is your height? i am 191 approximately and i am worried that the bike will be small for me.

[@Grumpybikewizard]

I'm 178 and it wasn't particularly small, should be fine.

[@petarsavic908]

Grumpy Bike Wizard hmm hopefully it will be good. i tried the new fazer a couple days ago and it was fine. so i hope the diversion will be close to that. thanks for the reply

[@zbyszeks8336]

Do you think that a better alternative is Kawasaki?

[@TheYondreck]

Hi, I was thinking of buying this bike in full fairing, my only concern is: I'm 170cm, 31 inches inseam. Would this bike be a good starter bike and wouldn't it be too high for me?

[@marcinpiak3540]

No problem. I'm 29" inseam and I can flat foot it both sides.

las maletas que marca son amigo??

[@alexj6902]

This windscreen is better than original?

[@Grumpybikewizard]

I found it better than the original screen for a larger person.

Grumpy Bike Wizard good for highway
