    I had a fz6 as my second bike. Was super fun. I sold it and now i want back into riding and the r7 seems to be the route i want. I want something sleek and sporty but not too fast. Something i can cruise on.

    R7 is no where near a ninja 650. R7 is way faster both top speed, and acceleration. Yes it has a parallel twin. But you forget to mention it's a cross plane motor. Cp2's are very, very torquey. I can snap my fz07 up at 60 no issues in 3rd. Tops out at 140... tune, exhaust, and intake...

      @shiftingflames1014 the 650's are not considered Supersports. Both insurance and the actual description from manufacturers do NOT call a 650 a super sport. Now, the cbr650r I am not sure of. But the ninja 650 is not a Supersport

    I've owned a 636 and a zx10r. I figured the r7 would be a good bike to behave on.. I knew it was gonna be slower but I'm kind of disappointed it the engine performance. The bike handles like it's on rails but lacks power. Yamaha claims 143 top. I can't find a road long enough to get over 130. Wish I would have just went with a true 600 class

Once you get use to speed the speed your use to becomes slow. It's a chase that will never satisfy the last thing you should have ever done is go backwards in the speed and expect satisfaction! JS

I feel like the only time youd really want an r7 is if you wanted to compete in super twins and just dont like the gsx8r, ninja 650, cbr500r, or the rs660.

      Somebody with sense. This is probably the worst beginner bike considering how much torque you get instantly. Other 600-700s you have to work for the power up in the rpm but this freaking thing explodes when you give it good amount. Not something you’d want as a beginner. But pride lies deep.

      @@FJ1903 most people who start on bigger bikes are fine, it’s the skill that reflects and makes it dangerous and not worth it. A smaller bike teaches you more while a bigger bike just makes you scared and timid towards it. It really shows when you see dudes on big bikes that don’t know how to downshift or shift smooth in general or have the confidence that a person on a smaller bike has. It’s really dumb cringe when they don’t even know how to balance the bike at turns or even at stops. An r7/mt07 regardless of how it’s ridden will not teach you like an R3 would or similar bike, just facts

    Definitely not a good first beginner bike, pushing the wrong info. Buy a 400 for cheaper and learn fundamentals, turning and braking. I guess if your going in a straight line like this you and never turning it'd be good but to each is own. Not sure why people give advice on bikes with only freeway pull experience, then crash. Probably not the best advice or image for new riders, but your not forcing anyone to smash on the freeway it's up to them at the end of the day. Ride safe.

      I don’t understand, this bike is only about 10mph faster than a 400. Given that I can see someone getting this first & keeping for awhile. Rather than upgrading to a 600 too early. On the other hand you also have people saying “Start on a 600”. So I really don’t see the problem with starting on an R7

      I don't expect you to understand, you were in the hospital after speeding through heavy traffic on a video you posted. You have to get experience to teach others, or you'll push the wrong info like so many moto vlogger's do as your doing now. Might hurt your ego but if your smart you'll be open to learning. Telling people what bike to get as a beginner based off speeding on the highway ain't it. Go hit the track and give a full review not just a freeway or group ride running in a straight line. Those who say a 600 or anything above a 300/400 are wrong. You have to learn how to walk before you run. Hopefully you come full circle before it's too late views, likes, and ego can cloud one's judgement ride safe! @@carterleewalker

      The thumbnail is just for you to click. If you were to actually watch the whole video I said you could start on this bike, which is a very valid point.
      A lot of new riders are stubborn and get whatever bike they want, they’re going to get. 400/600/1000. Doesn’t matter. My input doesn’t matter. But I do firmly believe someone CAN start on the bike.
      Not everyone wants to be a track star. That’s something you have to learn as well, there are people that want to just chill and get a sporty looking bike that isn’t a death trap… like the R7.

      ​@@101BadBreath i started on an mt07(same engine,same bike almost except the looks)id say its a good beginner bike for someone who wants more power than a 400 and not get bored in couple of months,as long as u respect the throttle you'll be fine

    The neutered and lazy rip off version of the 90s Inline-4 R7. It’s actually quite sad they get away with copying an mt07 engine and slapping some budget R1 fairings and calling it the predecessor of the true and legendary 90s version

    Nahh, pretty much every bike journalist with race history has said the Aprilia RS660 in better in every way possible.
