I've always wanted to ride one of these. For me it's a cool looking bike
Yeah man I love the retro look to it
I hope you will get to one day then!
They are nice to just ride around on and enjoying the traffic / nature =)
Thanks for watching
An excellent and accurate road test as always. I agree 100% with your comments and I haven't bought one either.
Glad you enjoyed it Paul.
Thanks for watching! =)
Very nice video!.
Thank's for you!)
Thank you very much!
Have a great day
Cool looking bike, awesome sound!
Finally got my bike out of hibernation, almost 100kms of riding done for the season!
Awesome! I have just been out a bit. But planning to do more soon! How's the weather in finland?
Thanks for watching
@@Darkvisor Pretty cold and have to dodge snow. But mostly thawed roads here in northeast finland.
@@Makedeth Damn you're out early then hehe
Hardcore rider ;)
I just saw one. They're very cool close up . Nice bikes 🏍
Thanks for watching! I also appreciate you making a comment
An honest, unbiased review for a change.
Welcome to my channel. All of my test rides are unbiased and I think I have about 100 of them on my channel =)
Thanks for watching
@@Darkvisor Having ridden too many bikes to count over my 65 years of riding, I've found many bikes with major design flaws and wondered how in the hell they got past the QC departments. The answer, of course is that the QC departments aren't independent.
@@williamrose2506 True words my friend! =)
I got to test ride one last year A 2017 which was the only year they sold this in the USA. I'd agree on two things. The air filters are way to far out and get in the way of hugging the tank and it felt heavy. I also hated the gauge setup. I should have bought it though at the 5,000 USD price the dealer had it listed for. I think I'd get used to it after a while. I have a FJR1300 that took a while to get used to but now I love it.
Thanks for watching my video
I have one of these bikes, I bought a discounted left over 2017.
It's the best scrambler on the market by far, the thing is scramblers are suppose to suck a little.
If you want a fast, do everything, nice bike you buy a adventure bike not a scrambler, if you want a unique cruiser that can go down a dirt road you buy a scrambler.
Greetings.
The definition of a scrambler seems to vary depending on who you ask or where you read. In my book this isn't a scrambler really. I'm not going to talk more about that, everyone thinks differently.
I have nothing against this bike and I'm happy to hear that you have one and that you enjoy it.
Feel free to check out my channel further, I have loads of other test rides with other scramblers and adventure bikes, cruiser, sport, minibikes etc... =)
Thanks for watching and have an awesome day! =)
There are sports bikes there, nakeds and whole buch of other machines. You ever rode a dirt bike ? This thing looks like a wishful copy of a HD Sportster with a different bar, called a scrambler;) "Unique cruiser that can go down a dirt road" you never been down a dirt road on a chopper-like bike weighing 250 kg - or else you ride it every so often pulling off the main road to get to you yard. Lamest stuff I've head...what fucking pleasue is it to ride a dirt road o a bulky copy of HD Sportster that's totally retarded on dirt?;) this is a road cruiser all it is...
@@block672008 I used to race dirt bikes and own a dr650 for riding serious off road adventures.
There's a lot of dirt roads in my area I cant avoid so I bought a cruiser I dont mind getting dirty for local rides, I dont need a good off road bike, anything with wheels can go where I take the scr950.
@@block672008 I've had and raced a bunch of dirt bikes.
You missed my point, the bike sucks off road but it's fine for the smooth dirt roads I cant avoid. I have a different bike a dr650 for off road adventure stuff.
Rätt så frän ändå lite liten kanske men endå🤘🏻 Nice video
Den är normalstor dock hehe =)
Tack för titten
@@Darkvisor är väll kameran som förvrider lite men rätt frän endå🤘🏻
Nice vid! Personally I have a hard time with scramblers, for a guy my size they feel like riding a moped sometimes. They look cool but not my cup of coffee! And I would prob be annoyed a-f with that speedo......🤣
Yeah. The triumph 1200 scrambler would be for you though. it's a bit taller! Or a Yamaha T7 =)
Thanks for watching brother!
@@Darkvisor 👊🤘
Came for the bike subscribed cause the intro music lol
Hehe awesome 🤘

Hello, for me it's the best test for this bike, no bla bla juste script and riding ✌️✌️✌️

Another reviewer who doesn't get the scrambler, the original ones , which this yam is a salute to
You from the States where they made scramblers out of HD Dynas?;))
I get it... I do... But comparing to newer scramblers.... Anyways, Thanks for watching, please subscribe to support me and my channel =)
Colors awesome. Is action camera Go pro 9 black?
Thanks.
No, It's a GoPro 7 Black

Nice sound
Thanks for watching!
@@Darkvisor you are italian?
@@darkleo0075 I am from Sweden 🇸🇪
Thanks. I have one just because I wanted a , more-of-a-street bike, to add to my Husqvarna TR650 Terra and It was cheap. My bought my 2017 for $5,500 as a 2 year old new left-over in 2019. The MSRP was $8699. I guess there is a premium in Scandinavia? I want to visit Sweden very much. I've been to Norway but long for Sweden. Thanks again. Skal..
I'm happy that you enjoys your bike =)
There is always a bike out there for everyone, I know because I have tried many bikes and some I love and some I don't and some bikes I don't like, others enjoy etc =)
Prices may vary depending on economy and where you live etc.
I hope you get the chance to come here soon, I love to ride in sweden! =)
Where are you from?
I think Yamaha could have done such a better job than this, 40kw at 250kgs that’s some hard work off road haha. Great vid tho man didn’t even know they made one till I watched this👌
Yeah this bike is a joke really. At least naming/labeling it a scrambler.
It's a nice normal bike to cruise around on but def not a scrambler =P
Thanks for watching!
@@Darkvisor Do you know what a scrambler is?
A road bike modded for some terrain.
This Yamaha is exactly what a scrambler should be!
@@ekimandersom4478 I disagree. Well maybe what you write is true. But in my opinion this bike isn't modded at all for some terrain other than asphalt, hence not fitting the name scrambler.
Thanks for watching Ekim
@@Darkvisor In History thats what a scrambler was, just a cruiser with some off road tires and removed some bits.
But in the modern day sense this isn't a scrambler as the others .
Yeah the speedometer is so boring and ugly for me. The sounds great but not strong as your Ducati.
Great vid DV, ride safe!
My duc is gone now gaz... =P
Yamaha T7 all day now!
Thanks for watching Gaz
im not waving just because we both ride a motorcycle
Thanks for Sharing your opinion. 99/100 bikers here always waves and has at least the last 30+ years.
Maybe it’s a Swedish thing and not an international thing :)
Also thanks for watching
What kind of mod is installed on this bike tonhave an airboxcover on the left side?
I think the bike is 100% factory. So no mods
Thanks for watching
Not my type of bike but well done
Thanks for watching Roland =)
💯👊🏼😎
Thanks for watching brother!
@@Darkvisor anytime Brother 💯
I think it’s a great bike, of course I’m bias because I own one but I think it’s the truest of all the scramblers.
I'm happy to hear that you enjoy your bike. I have gotten many comments from owners now who all seem to be very happy with theirs. There's always something out there for everyone. =)
Thanks for watching JCL
It is the closest to the scramblers of old.
Du körde ju förbi ett Handelsboden mc, köpte du inte nya byxor då??!! ;-)
Väntar på sponsor ska höra av sig 😉
(vilket lär dröja....) 😂
Tack för titten
Oh man, how I wanted to like this bike when it was first announced.. But so many problems with this one even before I've ridden it - like belt driven scrambler?!? Surely this can't be a good idea.. And that gap between the tank and triple-clamp would constantly drive me bananas. Unless that round black dash with a small square whole would drive me mad before...
And don't be hating on the learners for not waving, trust me, they usually have all their attention on not crashing the bike :D Especially while on a turn.. I mean, I know I was :P
This isn't a scrambler... It's a Yamaha Bolt with another frame! =P
Nah, No hate... Just an observation from myself. Everytime I see a learner on the road, I always wave to see if they wave back. I think maybe 1-2 has... But they were probably older and knows about the whole riding culture before.
I think many new riders just doesn't know about the whole waving thing. =)
Thanks for watching and commenting electro! =)
That bike does sound nice, andxa different take on typical types of bike, you didn't like?
I’m sorry I didn’t understood your question. Can you rephrase it?
Snygg hoj 🤣❤❤
Tack för titten alfred
I think it’s a pretty nice bike, with a nice retro look to it. Personally, the Speedo is garbage.
Yeah... whoever came up with that design should resign..
Thanks for watching Viper
Nice bike, i wonder about it.
Надеюсь, однажды получится накопить на него и мечта сбудется. Полностью отвечает моим нуждам:) сейчас владелец xv250 и уже очень не хватает
Спасибо за просмотр. Надеюсь, вы когда-нибудь получите этот мотоцикл =)
🏍
👌
They marketed this thing wrong, it’s a flat tracker not a scrambler. XSR dash, and some other slight adjustment would have made this perfect. Sad because I really like the look.
thanks for watching please subscribe to support me and my work
The bike seems like yamaha failed here.. not the video tho. The video is a success 😁
Thanks Desmo! =)
Thanks for watching my video
А мот хорош!)
Спасибо за просмотр
The speedometer design is a like a slap in the face. Like they had the rest of the bike finished, and whoever's job it was to design that was super pissed and said "fuck these customers, HERE, have fun looking at this"
I agree! it's a shame really and whoever approved it should be fired =P
Thanks for watching
Good morning Dark Visor ,you've just hit my inner self, my dream is to sell after 2 years from now my tracer, buy this, and die with it, of course God decides as we say here.
Sounds good. Thanks for watching =)
@@Darkvisor 😎😎😎😉😉
Location??
Sweden 🇸🇪
Love the bike but id does have a couple downers one in my opinion is footpeg position. It gets in the way of property walking the bike also you get no grip from anything except holding onto the bars and thats a no no when off road! Torque is great mid range awesome but short on top end! 5th gear to short for my taste, one major factor for me also specially if you're doing occasional offload is the rear caliper location, the line and caliper are exposed and literally 3 inches from the ground 😳 hit a rock 🪨 or a log riding and by brake line and posibly damage caliper! Last but never least, fuel consumption and range capacity! Drinks as much as my harley but range is like 100 miles top with intake and exhaust. Over all fun town bike and a good bike for your occasional light trails but sucks on all terrain
Thanks for watching my video and for sharing your thoughts about the bike. It's very interesting for me to hear your comment about the bike =)
Have an awesome day!

Student not waving probably because their learning how to ride a bike dude 😆
Yeah but You can still save. It’s not like they let you ride in traffic on day one so… but yeah hehe

なんか可愛いなこのバイクwww

When you don't want a bike, because of the Speedo.... Fuel cap is ugly as fuck too. What were the thinking?
Some like the Speedo. I don’t.
What do you think of this bike overall?
@@Darkvisor
I actually cycled by a Yamaha Store on Sunday (part time motor biker here), they still have one and I liked it a first sight. I am 188 cm with long legs, so I am having difficulties to cram myself on a lot of bikes and I am stuck with Enduros.
But the Yamaha seems to offer a lot of space and the seat may be hard, but it is flat so you can change position while riding. I also like that the motor is known as being very durable (high cubic capacity/low power), but a lot of people are complaining about the footpegs scratching the tarmac way to early which is an absolute no go and dangerous too. Motor sounds nice though.
I also dislike how the backlights are protruding behind the back, I like bikeswhere it's easy to fix a luggage roll for a small camping/fishing trip.
And as mentioned, I hate the speedo, the plastic fuel cap and I don't like the childish number shield. But I also have to add, I'm a pragmatic driver - my current ride is an 97er Honda SLR 650. Style isn't the most important thing with motorbikes, as I usually look onto the streets and the surroundings. The Honda has a nice Speedo btw.:)
Besides, I really enjoyed the landscape of your ride, is this Skane/Southern Sweden?
@@moronsmorons8913 Thanks for your detailed answer =)
If you're tall i'd suggest you look into Yamaha Tenere 700:
czcams.com/video/26GXqHCyHhI/video.html
I'm 175 cm tall and I almost struggle with the height, I can reach the ground barely with my feet =P
If you want to make it even taller you can get a larger seat. But it would be a good match for you. I own a T7 myself and have zero plans for selling it. really awesome bike.
This video was filmed in Karlstad which lies 5-6 hours north of Malmö / Skåne. =)
Wet weight = 248 kg. Fuel capacity = 12 litres. This isn't a beginners' bike. Beiginners' bikes are smaller. Just about nothing I agreed with in the 'review'.
Thanks for watching
You also pull on the throttle like a total armature, wrench wrench wrench, no finesse at all
Life of an armature… 🤷🏻♂️
Best throttle finesse I seen! Wrench wrench! Like a pro!😎
Good videon, but perhaps not the coolest looking bike you've tested. At least not in my taste. 🙂
Thanks for watching Oakey
100% right about the speedometer. It does look like 💩
I'm happy to hear that I'm not alone thinking this hehe
Thanks for watching Nikica
Ducati look
Thanks for watching
They've copied Harley Sportster and called it a scrambler in belief people got so lame these days they won't make it out;)
Thanks for watching, please subscribe to support me and my channel =)
yeah, that speedometer is ugly, lame and boring.
aftermarket time.
Yeah... who came up with that design? lol
Thanks for watching
Most ugliest speedometer I ever seen! Why Yamaha why?
Yeah... who came up with that design and does he still work with Yamaha? lol
Thanks for watching
Are you censoring your speedo because it's ugly or will the queen confiscate your bike for having too much freedom
Censor? noooo... must be a bug on my lens ;)
