Think about getting your leg pinched in that spring.

I don't know what yamaha was thinking with this bike. I simply love my MT-01, but this MT-03 wasn't thought out too well. (To be fair though, they claim that it isn't a Motard.)

That 660cc single doesn't have enough juice for such a heavy bike. I'm sure it has enough for a beginner to blast through city streets, but this engine really belongs in Darth's MV where it can shine.

If I were to buy a Motard bike I think I would lean towards this.

Get your facts first, and then you can distort them as much as you please.

Odd to see a Husky in Italian (thier current owners' Nationality) colors - The Swedish Yellow & Blue is a little more normal....
The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard.
