Advantages: Looks good, sounds good, cheap to buy. Disadvantages: Makes a 50cc bike illegal at 16 just like any other exhaust.
I have an Aprilia RX50 racing, 2006. I have an arrowexhaust on it. it was already on there when i baught it, but the standard exhaust restricted it to 25 mph, but the full arrowexhaust kit makes it go to 55 to 60 mph. It looks alot better than the standard exhaust. They are easy to get hold of if you want one. For a full arrowexhaust system usually costs around £185. Arrow make many exhausts for many different bikes. When mine had the standard exhaust on it sound like a broken hair dryer like a standard moped, but now it sounds like a 125 cc motocross bike. I learnt how to ride it in 15 minutes, that was the first time i have ever ridden a geared motorbike. Even my dad loves it and he has a Yamaha R1 which is 20 x more powerful. All those people thinking of getting one, get an arrow. Hope this helps. ...
Advantages: Great Disadvantages: Seat only good for an hours riding.
All the reviews stated this bike is ideal for just about any type of riding, touring, commuting, fun days out and B road blasting. I bought mine in the Spring of 2004 and have used it for all of these types of riding and have to say it almost, not quite, but almost lives up to the hype. My bike a shiny blue one, R1 Blue I'm told, after scratching it once I found its listed as Deep Purlish Blue Metallic on the Yamaha paint supply lists, how's that for a colour? Still it looks great and is mainly blue but has a nice purple tinge when caught in the right light nice! Mine is a 2003 model with the Fox eye headlights and other improvements over the older model shown in the picture above.
The ride is good with adjustable suspension front and rear, I keep the front wound round to the firmer end of the dials and the rear somewhere towards ...

Advantages: superb handling. decent riding position. Disadvantages: corrosion
bought a fazer 600 as a first bike almost five year ago.
Have since ridden almost 40,000 miles in all weathers inc. a trip to the Isle of Man TT races in 2003.
This machine is an ideal first bike, excellent in cornering, good brakes and can be forgiving when slight mistakes are made.
it's handling makes it superb on all roads including filtering through heavy traffic in town.
it is also quite comfortable cruising along the motorway, with a good riding position and a good view from the mirrors.
As with any bike it needs regular servicing the main points being the chain and brakes, which if not looked after will wear quite quickly.
yamahas are prone to corrosion and after five years of punishment I have had to replace the down pipes of the exhaust and the front brake calipers.
Therefore I recommend regular cleaning and polishing ...
