Totally agree dude. But I'll also add that along with enjoyment, bit of talent and not necessarily needing 200bhp, there's the final point that many of us (myself included) can't afford the 200bhp Superbikes even if I wanted one anyway. Watching the "big boys" at trackdays when I'm on shonky old SV Minitwin you see them piling in fuel, ripping through tyres and generally just looking like it costs an absolute fortune to keep them going. I just fill my tank up and crack on for the day. Same tyres wet/dry/whatever and always have a massive laugh. I reckon one of these would be exactly the same smiles per pound 😎👍

This bike is a budget bike, aimed at those who can't afford better. Let's not sugar coat it.

@@thecaptain5344 it's got more to do with cycles of trends. sportsbikes were very "in" for a long time, and saw lots of innovation, however most of that innovation became centered around the archetype racing classes, and once emissions entered the chat it quickly became less viable to keep funding r&d for said bikes. Especially the 600 class bikes were so stretched out that you could no longer justify the bump up in price per generation, without the equal bump in performance. That's why only the flagship superbike segment continues to shine. Instead other segments took over where middleweight sportsbikes left the scene, stuff like retro street bikes, adv bikes, etc proved to be equally successful and started receiving lots of investment from companies - which in turn made these segments even more popular amongst buyers, because buyers are naturally more interested in the segments that receive most fundings and improve the most from generation to generation. Popularity creates trends, etc. However, with the re-introduction of the middleweight sporty segment and proving that classic sportsbikes still have a place in riders' hearts, this may very well change the scene again over the next couple of years - and make non-race standard classes more appealing (not just for riders, but for the companies to invest into). There are clear patterned cycles of trends that take over from each other. And middleweight sporty bikes are definitely on the rise again, albeit in a slightly new package compared to prior years' raceclass bred replica sportsbikes.

So in a different light this is essentially a fully faired Fazer. Yamaha had a good formula and they made it better and better over time. I do like the idea of the R7. Comfortable package, reliable and strong engine and a racing feel without the insane powerband. The Fazer was THE mid weight naked for in the city from Yamaha so to see it come so far is a great thing. We all would of loved the idea of an R7 a redo of the infamous 750 racer but in today's world where regulations etc are effecting the industry it's gonna be harder to make those hooligan bikes we love so much. What Yamaha delivered us was a package perfectly suitable for most riders today. I do love it. Personally I still prefer the proper old sports bikes and when I get a big bike it's gotta be a 600rr or F4i. But the R7 seems ideal for an everyday bike. Good bike.

The exhaust is the first thing that gets replaced anyway so it's fine if they went budget on that

A quick look at the dyno charts, and this bike beats the R6 up to 9000rpm. This bike looks cool, probably does 55mpg almost everywhere, and has 120+mph ability. That meets the need of 95% of riders. Yamaha are interested in selling lots of bikes.

On a track an r6 is never below 9000 anyway. Engine just isnt exciting enough. Shame that supersports are regressing… People seem to want to sacrifice performance for “comfort”. Sad times.

Would be great to see a feed of the telemetry on track. Hard life though eh. Good stuff.

To me it honestly feels like they’ve created the perfect bike for folks who want a sport bike for the street but don’t need 120+ hp that you could never use away from the track anyway.

Loved it! And I would really love if you, one day, will teach us how to do some of those lovely wheelies 😁 (I'm really not great at those)
