Yamaha FZ-09

⚠️ Things to consider

• Seat Comfort: The stock seat can be uncomfortable for longer rides, leading to fatigue on extended journeys.
• Windscreen Protection: The FZ-09 lacks a standard windscreen, which can result in increased wind fatigue for the rider at higher speeds.
• Suspension Setup: While the suspension is adjustable, some riders find the stock settings to be overly soft for aggressive riding, requiring further tuning to suit personal preferences.
• Fuel Tank Design: The fuel tank shape can make it challenging for some riders to find a comfortable grip during aggressive cornering.
• Limited Storage Options: The bike has minimal built-in storage and lacks mounting points for luggage, making it less practical for long-distance touring. These factors may vary in significance depending on individual riding styles and preferences.
