VOL. 55 ISSUE 31 AUGUST 7, 2018 P91 New bodywork is a little slimmer and smaller than 2018. that suits you quite easily. Personally, I left it in A mode after sampling the B and STD modes for a few miles. A-mode can be a bit abrupt if you're not ready for it, and I'd probably go for B-mode with a passenger but A-mode is fine for single-rider riding. Those three cylinders of crossplane Yamaha awe- someness give you access to a stupendous amount of torque that'll take you years to get sick of. A bonus is you can be super lazy with the gearbox, allowing the revs to drop low in a gear higher than you'd normally allow and just let the engine pull you out of the corner.
