    Given the recent success that Honda has had with the US launch of their CB1100, I am of the mind that Yamaha needs to hear a few opinions. I want.....excuse me, NEED to get one of these (even though it's due an update)

    Contact Yamaha USA if you agree. Maybe we can get them to notice that the wind is changing. Yamaha USA Corporate

    There's the bandit too, pretty close except for the liquid cooling ( as is on the ZRX above )

    Can't be that bothered or someone would have done it by now, what 's the cost, about £650, which ain't much really.
    But anyway, being an owner of the XJR myself, i'll let you into a secret.
    The bike is a piece of sh!te, under-powered for what it is, an FJ has more power and the XS1100 from where it all started 35 years ago has got the same power, so no progress there.
    And, spares cost an arm and a leg, i don't know why, they just do.
    So there you go, :lol: :lol: :lol:
