Anyone ever see a rig based on a Yamaha YZF750R? Any comments on the engine suitability? I understnd they have a fairly peaky powerband?

REALLY peaky - as in zero power below about 8K rpm. Also not the most robust clutch. Also one of the classic Yamaha aluminum spar frames. All in all, pretty much the worst sidecar bike I could think of.

On the bright side - if you had an original 750R in good condition, you could sell it to a collector and buy a new Bandito Big Grin

Thanks Paul..I thought that may be the response. But..How about over 8,000 rpm? LOL
