+ Great handling ; playful motor ; powerful brakes

– Race-style riding position

to get some credible results in the racing world and I can see why with the way it goes around corners . The chassis is nicely balanced and likes to be pushed on . The non-LAMS HO ( High Output ) model would be a hoot .
WHERE IT ’ S AT I rate the YZF-R7 at the very top end of the LAMS approved pecking order . The bike has playful twin cylinder power ( even for a LAMS machine ), is super nimble , stops on a dime and looks absolutely dreamy . It ’ s something that ’ s suitable for all types of sports-inspired riders . The fact you can ride a bike as good looking as the YZF-R7 on a restricted licence is awesome , and anyone who buys one of these little gems is not going to be disappointed .
