So my roommate has decided that he is in the market for a bike... and he wants a Yamaha R6 Fiat replica to park beside my Repsol...this is the R1 but the R6 is exactly the same but with different logos.

Anyway, I just wanted to see what you guys thought of the bike (forget about the rider) as a street bike. Lots of speculation as to the crappy torque curve but otherwise any opinions?

I hear bad things about the daily rideability of Yami's. Plus, the R6's are ugly in most forms. They look like ugly bugs. I like the R1's though.

It's ok looking, but not the best looking bike I have seen. For everyday use he might do alot better with the R6S

I am digging the R6S and may end up with one if I sell my F4. To me it's the best bang for the buck.

That is a nice looking fiat R1. Where are you getting these replicas from?
