wow.. its on yamaha USA site.. means we are getting it.. but why can they offer a faired version???
and coupled with the fact it costs about 1k more than an fz8.. I almost wonder why the hell they ever even offered the FZ8 if they knew they were going to make this bike..
edit: ughh.. i just looked at the fuel capacity... 3.7 gallons.. i wonder what they expect this to get for MPG.. any idea's??
Well it has 3 different fuel maps to choose from. It might get pretty good in economy mode, who knows. I never really use even half the FZ6 tank capacity so I'm not worried about it personally.
Anybody have any idea what in the heck a "crossplane" triple sounds like?
Apparently not much different...
Yikes. Hopefully that was just bad audio! Sounds exactly like my stock FZ6 exhaust.
i like the heck out of it.

Is this Yamaha's first attempt at a triple?
That is the only thing I'd be wary of. Rarely does a manufacturer have all the bugs worked out of a brand new platform and engine on the first try.
