This is going to be a quick update and an overview of the Yamaha XJ6 Diversion because i haven’t had the motivation to reinstall my Word Precessing kit yet. Naughty me. Anyway, today i went to my local bike shop as they have a really great offer on for Yamaha’s XJ6 Diversion. I’ve always liked the bike since Yamaha brought it out in 2009 and i had a sit on one of the new arrivals last February and was pleasantly surprised, so when 0% finance and free this and that came up i had to go down. I had a really long penis look at the bike and i think i have fallen in love. Every time i see one it grows on me more and more. I didn’t test ride the bike so my initial thoughts can’t really stem beyond the showroom interaction but i have to say that i am very impressed.

It has to be one of the most practical bikes i have seen with decent weather protection, a centre stand AND a kickstand, grab rails and an accommodating riding position similar to Kawasaki’s ER6F (Ninja 650r). However, sitting on the two i do prefer the XJ6 as it just seems lighter to me (it actually is 5 KG heavier), after all it is probably the half fairing which does this. I’m not ure which one I’d choose though; the torquery twin or the linear inline? The seat seems a little uncomfortable on both models yet i am not the greatest judge on this coming from a cruiser. The comfort is – as expected – much greater than a super-sport as the upright position and gentle sloping posture make for a more sport tourer style. That’s about all i can give without actually riding the bike and if it wasn’t for the insurance i would take one home now…

Besides this i also bought some new leather trousers which match my jacket and Gloves. These are the Lewis Apexx Jeans with knee sliders. First impressions seem good and i should have a full review by early February. Now i have all of the Lewis leather sport suit, no guesses to what my name is then?
