In order to cut down its weight Yamaha has used an aluminium cast frame which gives the bike necessary power and acceleration. From the stand still the bike can reach to a speed of 100 km/hr in just three seconds. Yamaha has used its gear ratios pretty well as you never sense the need of a sixth gear. The bike is brilliant for long runs as it can easily pass the speed of 200 km/hr and even at low speed, the bike feels light and responsive. For a five speed gearbox this is one of the fastest and finest speed bikes in the market.
