Got the Sept issue of Motorcyclist today, and they had a "First Look" article on the FZ-8. I couldn't read all of it, went to the eye doctor this morning and my pupils are still dilated, but may post more when my eyes return to normal.
Some snippets I could make out:
1. Yamaha builds motorcycles, ATVs, snowmobiles, jetskis, and musical instruments; all items that take a hit during a Recession. Guess they as a company posted a $2.3 Billion loss last year; that's Not Good...
2. FZ8 is not available in the US, but may be in the next 12 months.
3. Price? $12,000?!?!?! OMGWTFBBQ?!? I hope that's a misprint.
4. Apparently more room than an FZ-1, which would make it particularly attractive to us tall folk...
more later, after my eyes stop <== doing this.
