YAMAHA Touring Bike reviews

This is my third FJR1300. I absolutely love it. The only reason I'm selling it is because I bought a newer one to replace it. It has Avon Storm tires, frame sliders, Cee Bailey windshield, OEM side bag liners, owners manual and shop service manual. Also fender extender, and maintenance records. Show less

It's truly the best bike I've owned so far. It offers a car-like comfort and powerful performance, making it perfect for long rides on the highway. The bike handles heavy traffic with ease thanks to its manageable size and maneuverability. It comes with plenty of storage space and comfortable aftermarket seats, ensuring a comfortable ride for long distances. The bike is built to last with a durable construction and reliable performance. The low-maintenance shaft drive eliminates the need for chain adjustments, making riding hassle-free. Exciting features like the electric windshield and cruise control make highway cruising a breeze, and they are easy to adjust when you're off the highway. The Akrapovic exhaust system provides a comfortable ride and quick power delivery, enhancing the overall riding experience. If you're looking for a reliable, comfortable, and feature-rich touring motorcycle, this is the one for you. Show less

Great bike that can start you off and carry you for a few years with some room to grow. Makes smooth, even power, and gets good fuel economy (about 44 mpg on my commute). Not so good for much taller riders (I’m 76” and it would be a little uncomfortable after an hour on the saddle). Easy to service, very reliable, modern fuel injected bike. Forgiving but confident handling and good ride quality. Bike is nice and stable and instills confidence in the rider. Inputs are all well calibrated and the bike feels natural to interact with.

Wonderfull bike, drives like a train, powerfull, comfortable and sporty at the same time. Eats miles. Electric screen very easy to adjust on the way, lower on the highway, higher in the city. I drive with a modular helmet and i can have it open for speeds up to 70m/hr. In terms of reliability, no major problems. Show less

This is the best bike I have ever operated. It is beautiful, reliable, powerful, fast, easy to handle and superbly oriented toward long distance riding. It simply requires scheduled maintenance and it will last forever. If I were younger there's no way I'd be selling it. I have owned several of these motorcycles and this is the newest one I have owned. There are other motorcycles that compete in this class but they are either more expensive, not as well engineered or designed, more expensive to acquire and maintain, or some combination of these things.

I bought a used 2009 Yamaha FZ6R with only 3400 miles on it! I've owned several motorcycles before, like Honda CBR600F4, 2 Honda Nighthawks and a Yamaha Seca II. This bike is a blend of the CBR and Nighthawk. It's comfortable, agile and fun on twisty roads. I like the fact that it has an adjustable seat height and an upright riding position (with actual handlebars). I don't like that it doesn't have a gear indicator. As stated, it is fun to ride and easy to work on. The fairings are easily removed, and oil changes are a snap. Like most motorcycles, the stock exhaust is very quiet and boring. I swapped mine out with a Two Brothers Racing exhaust, and man, what a difference! Overall, very pleased with the bike. I think it would make a great beginner bike for someone looking to get into motorcycling. Show less

Found a 2005 v star 1100 and pick it up for $1200. The couple didn't ride any more and were happy to see it go. Ended up selling it for $2900 just a couple weeks later. It was a great bike, but I didn't really think it was for me. Just a year later, since I had $$, I started looking for another bike. Found my 07 v star 1300 sitting on a street corner that had been there for awhile ( about 8 months). Once I was able to find the owner and test ride it ,found out it had a dead cylinder. Anyway, after agreeing with the owner that I would purchase the bike if I could take it to a shop and get it running, he allowed me to take it and 7 days and $107 later, the bike was mine. It is a perfect fit for me. I even tried to sell it but it's mine. So I ended up buying a trailer for it to be able to do some traveling with it. Show less
