    Thumbs up Yamaha FZ8

    Looks good to me

    If Goldilocks rode a bike, the FZ8 would be it. Not too big and not too small, the FZ8 offers a just-right combination of performance, style, and do-it-all versatility to handle your morning commute, as well as your weekend sorties on the twisties.

    The muscular, naked-bike styling gives the FZ8 an aggressive stance and a real-world-comfortable, upright riding position. The 779cc liquid-cooled, inline 4-cylinder, 16-valve engine delivers smooth power delivery and torque a-plenty in the low- to mid-rpm range. Fuel injection provides optimum intake efficiency and smooth throttle response. The FZ8 inherits proven R1/FZ1 technologies, including forged aluminum pistons, fracture-split carburized connecting rods, and ceramic-composite-plated cylinders.

    The "naked-bike" styling is accentuated by the headlight design and FZ1-style instrument cluster. The 2011 FZ8 will be available in dealerships nationwide beginning in December with a starting MSRP of $8,490 and will be available in Raven
    It dosen't matter how you find the pot of gold,
    All that matters is that you beat the leprechauns.

    I don't dislike it, but not my type.

    It looks good, but it just ain't my style.

    Doesn't look bad just not into it .

    I like the Euro street fighter type of naked bikes better.

    Guess its cool if your into that sort of thing. I like mines in a fly business suit rather than some half naked stripper in a thong. But if she was something on the side........... then I'd definitley ride her.
