    4 Stars Thundercat - It won't get lost in a sea of CBR's 18/01/2007
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Underrated, brakes, engine

    Disadvantages Disadvantages brakes, headlight, exhaust downpipes

    I bought a N registered Thundercat as a replacement for a Kawasaki GPZ500S for use primarily for instructing but also for decent runs out when the weather was nice. The Thundercat replaced the "fox eye" headlight FZR600R, at the same time Yamaha brought out its bigger brother the Thunderace (to take on the Honda Fireblade). It got good reviews from the press but the main problem the media had was, that although the Thundercat was a match for its biggest rival the Honda CBR600 on the road, it couldnt match it on the track due to its softer front end. This was rubbish really as the first thing ... more

    5 Stars The best bike for under £2000?!?! 15/08/2006
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Cheap, good looks, comfortable ride, pillion comfort

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Easily rusting Steel downpipes and rear swingarm

    A bike for under £2000 - not an easy choice! With the budget set i started hunting! Having had an SV650S previously (forced to sell due to getting married!) i really wanted another. As i was trawling EBay for one, i came across a Thundercat on there where the owner had sneakily snuck in the letters "Not SV" in the title! Upon looking at it i was shocked - £1600 for an S reg bike with 25000 miles on it - full service history and in the latest yellow R6 colours! Whatsmore an HPI check revealed no damage/finance etc (damage a main concern with re-painted bikes!) so off i went - it was mine! It ... more

    5 Stars Known as Thundercat 11/02/2001
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Quick, Good looking, Agile, Cheap to run, Easy to clean!!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Tiring over long distances, need a paddock stand.

    This sports motorcycle when launched in I believe 1996 was one of the best in its 600cc class. I brought one from new in 1997 and can say I was thoroughly impressed with it. Very quick, very agile, and surprisingly quite comfortable for a sports bike. Its not quite big enough to going touring with a pillion over any great distance, but it got me and my wife from Devon to Berkshire quite happily in about 3 1/2 hrs. The bike was fine, we just couldnt feel our legs. It very closely competes with the ZZR600 and there isnt much to choose between the two. Engine is solid, brakes excellent. Not a ... more

    Yamaha YZF600R is a Dream Bike, and it looks so stylish and strong bike. Anybody can fall in love with it in first sight! ya...its right. I really love this bike. Its a 600 CC SuperSport Motorcycle. Its inline 4 cylinder engine and 90 bhp (67 kW) the YZF600R Thundercat is a comfortable and road minded sports bike. Sumitomo One piece brakes also make it a good choice for track racing. The bike has one of the most comfortable seats and riding positions and good underseat storage area giving room for the toolkit, disklock and a decent lock and chain, and mine also had an alarm unit fitted which ... more
