Yamaha XVS650 - a good first bike?

ks2847 · 06-11-2008, 02:55 PM

Hi all

Does anyone have any experience with a Yamaha XVS650, or do you know of anyone who has ridden one? I really like the look of it and I've read a lot of online reviews and the general consensus is that it's a great bike (with the exception of spongy brakes!).

I'm really drawn to it and the only thing that would stop me buying it would be if it's too uncomfortable for me.

Any opinions/experiences? Let me have 'em

P.s
My computer is playing up and won't let me upload a pic of the bike

Cheers
Kenny

I agree with Sam, its all down to personal preference Kenny. Best thing is to give one a try if you can.

To be honest I'm probably getting ahead of myself, my CBT is booked for the 25th June...............I cannot wait!
