I can tell you exactly what the hate is brother. 1. They called it an R7 and everyone expected it to be the spiritual successor to the older R7 (people were devastated) 2. These days its all about d*ck measuring (more BHP = better). The people talking shit are usually the ones that think chicken strips = faster while theyre riding around with bad body positioning or just riding fast in a straight line etc.. I own an R7, absolutely love it. Its got enough power to get me into trouble and enough power to get me out of trouble. Enjoy your bike, ignore the hates
I picked up my R7 the day I passed my test - I agree with you this bike is heaps of fun and I honestly think I will have it for years to come! Never understood why people were attracted to heavy clunky litre bikes especially when they can only use a fraction of the power for street 🤷🏽♂️
yup, I’m not sure whose idea of fun it is to cruise around in 1st gear on an R1 in the city while it’s cooking your nuts at red lights. the R7 is the perfect city sportbike, the only issues with it are the low quality paint and clear coat, and the exhaust note, but the note can be improved with a full system. everything else is 10/10 on it imo.
@@mencibenci yea I got a full yoshi pipe fitted to mine followed by a tune and now shes running and sounding amazing (no baffle). obviously the seating position is super uncomfortable for long rides but i get bored of upright bikes within 5 minutes so its the price we pay for fun :)
I agree. My R6 used to cook my legs and had no power down low. I rode an mt07 and the R7 should be a peppy little bike for the street with that torque rich parallel twin. I got an MT09 now since I sold the R6.
Just picked my 2024 last week. And i love it. All the negative reviews on youtube are from the people who owned an r6 or are riding a liter bike. It’s good to know what ppl think about the bike, but it’s always better to test ride it yourself and make your decision. In the end, you are the one who will ride it. Not the UA-camrs. Also, I have a two brothers racing full exhaust system on it, it is loud and sounds really good. I loving the deceleration pop and bang. Next is to have the ecu flashed.
Ooo I was gonna get the two brothers, I wind up ordering the M4 exhaust, it should be in next week and then I will be getting a ecu flash as well, super stoked about that 🔥
I don’t understand the hate on the R7 either. Yeah it’s not like the R6 that’s not what the R7 is designed for. It’s designed to be an everyday sport bike that’s practical on public roads. Awesome torque across the powerband makes it useable for everyday riding. The R6 is a high revving screamer therefore it lags down low in the powerband. I love my R6 but im sold on getting a R7!❤
The R7 hate really is weird to me. “It’s nowhere near as fast as an R6!”…. Like okay, we knew that. No one said it was. It serves an entirely different purpose 😂
I think because the R6 was canceled people incorrectly see the R7 as it's replacement. If they still produced the R6 the R7 would be recognized in its own light as a step between the R3 and R6.
@@Aceeridez I am 58 and road my fair share of superbikes starting in the late 80's and I think the R7 of the perfect bike for the street and occasional weekend track days. Unless you're a complete squid speed demon there is no reason to own one of the bigger bikes. With the proper mods (exhaust, airbox and flash) the R7 is fun as hell. Ride safe my young friends. 🤘😎🎸
Great to see you review this bike.. I just bought one in blue and I absolutely love it ! So light and easy to ride and looks amazing ! I love the engine, and so much power for the road. Great review.
Just got my R7 as my first motorcycle just a week ago… it’s been absolutely great. It’s so much fun and I don’t think I’ll outgrow it for a long time. It does everything I need it do, good enough
I'm really looking forward to getting this bike once I have enough $ to buy a bike and gear again. It's beautiful. It has more than enough performance then I'll ever be able to use. That's my main counter argument is It's price isn't bad and I'll never be able to get the max out of any bike I can get. So I'm going to get one that I love the looks of as well as always been a Yamaha fan
Nah, go 400 or 450. Ive been riding since i was young all sorts of stuff. Just got my first road motorcycle and its a 450. Feels great and i feel confident with it
I went from an R125 to an R7, it’s the best progression imo, an R3 in the middle in unnecessary. learn to ride on the 125cc properly, then you’ll be able to handle the twitchiness of the R7 no problem.
I did. Went from 125cc Honda grom to an r7. If I would’ve bumped up to a 400 it would’ve been a huge waste of money. Master the basics on the 125 then get a 600 and understand you have to respect the bike and what it can do and you’ll be just fine.
I just started riding. I bought a yamaha mt03 and will probably buy myself an r7 for my second bike. That Yamaha blue is one of the nicest colors, in my opinion.
"I'm itchin' for a wheelie" as he's riding one handed, on a curvy two lane road with driveways all along, in a tee shirt, on a bike he's just getting used to.
I also have a 2024R7 and I absolutely love it. The only thing I don’t really care for with the blue one is that they made the wheels blue too I think they should’ve made them gray or black and it would’ve accented the bike better
I went to go see one yesterday and I really liked it a lot. However my knees hit the gas tank when I upshift. Either I’m too tall or the bike is too small. The cbr1000 is a bit better for a taller person I had better clearance but I didn’t want to get a 1000cc to be real. I was able to fit well on a gxsr 600 they feel nice just a bit bulkier than the R7.
I put dirt bike bars on mine I can ride for hours without being uncomfortable and it’s really fun to do wheelies and stoppies on it now, super fun bike
My dream bike right there. 2 years and ones mine! Nice video, what microphone do you use by the way I am trying to find an adapter for my GoPro Hero 10. Any suggestions?
I’ve had my r7 since January and it’s cool but sometimes I feel like it lacks power lol I come from Harley’s and I felt like my Harley’s were faster my biggest dislike is the exhaust and how expensive they are for these bikes but honestly going to hate myself for doing this but might just buy an eBay exhaust for the meantime
Man it’s great, I’ve had mine for 5 years now and it’s got 205,000 miles on it, never had to do any maintenance work besides of course getting oil changes

If a 390 duke has 46 hp an zero to 60 in 4 seconds an the r7 with 73 hp with 0 to 60 in 3.27 seems pretty close. You say start out on 300s when your 700 is basically the same.
I'm torn between the r7 and zx6r 🥴😩 Idk which one to get lol.. I can careless about driving on a "track" that's not my thing. I want to simply drive around town, highways, make trips with the sport bike look I love. And the r7 would be perfect for that. Especially given the alleged average mpg it gets. But I'm also torn on the zx64. I mean, it has more power then I'd usually need but it's there if I ever do. But the display is top notch and comes outfitted with a quick shifter.

This one is nice tho
They had one in the dealership when I got the R7 and man I’m not gonna lie that GSX 8R is a mean looking bike🔥
