Did my A2 license on one of these, great bike to learn on
Mine already 162k miles...still powerful.. reliable... changed rear wheel to r1 with 190/55 tyre, looks fat from behind..weekend ride in the twisties..n loving the bike every second
so your bike has done 162000 miles...thats impressive or is that a typo?
@@Caledonia3104 not a typo.. it is 162000...
Firdaus Zainal Thats the highest I’ve heard off. Amazing 😲😀😀😀 Even if it was km it’s still high. How many years to get to that ?
Actually im the 2nd owner , I bought it 3 years ago the mileage was 140k..the previous owner own the bike since 2012..im lucky he maintains the bike wonderfully..I had no major issues for the past 3 years except worn out starter carbon brush..other than that..it is a tough machine, even the mechanic that did the valve clearance said for a high mileage bike the engine internals still in good condition n it still runs smoothly..
Firdaus Zainal That’s brilliant. 200000 is the next milestone 👍
Yeap... I learned how to ride on an XJ6 and it's still one of my favourite bikes, especially the 90's version of it. The classic lines are just amazing.
Front fender extension is a good mod to reduce the amount of crap the front wheel can spray at the engine. I've a powerbronze one on my Xj6n and it's good as new after seven years.
I'm looking to do my full license test in the new year and this is currently at the top of my list as my first big bike. It seems like one of the best used middleweight bikes out there, can pick them up for about 2.5k these days which seems like a great deal.
Christ, u don't notice how much of a giant spicy is until he stands up straight next to a bike. The bike looks tiny and scared 😀
Hey Spicy, I've been following you for probably close to a decade now, but only recently got my full unrestricted license. Been riding for a month or so now and absolutely having a blast. After passing, I immediately went out and got myself an XJ6N, and it's so damn beautiful, but... managed to let it slip as I was parking it up in my garage about a week back. You know the best place to get replacement parts for the XJ6 these days? Need a new clutch lever and left indicator cover :(
Wemoto have a lot of things but OME will cost a fair amount. Maybe look at aftermarket upgrades? Probably cheaper. I have Lextech levers and I love them. Just realised they have been on the bike 7 years! th-cam.com/video/IW_S9-m1Y9w/w-d-xo.html
Love my 2010 xj6f had it 4 years done 20k on it and never missed a beat. 👌👍
I've had my FZ6R for almost 9 years now and I've done 54,000 miles on it now. 😌
Hi Spicy, love the video and bike, which exact black widow exhaust is on your bike, great sound!
Cool vid thanks - just about to get my first proper bike after passing my test ( lockdown endeavour!) . Would you recommend one of these for London traffic / filtering etc? Thanks
Love the vids spicy. Keep up the good work. I have a question. I have a 2014 xj6n and I'm looking for some decent looking crash bars. What brand are yours and where did you buy them from?👍
Sadly I have no idea as they were on the bike when I bought it.
У меня тоже yamaha xj6 diversion s, купил в этом году и пожалуй для города это лучший мотоцикл, в меру динамичный, мягкий по подвеске, ровный крутящий момент на всех режимах благодаря 4-х целиндровому двигателю унаследованному от yamaha r6 только дифорсированный
Getting my A2 license soon, been looking at the xj6 mainly due to the price and looks, how does this compare to the non-diversion model?
Sorry to say this Spicy but I have wanted a 2010 xj6 divi since you bought her she is so amazing
Love the bike man! I have one from 2009 in red and put a black widow exhaust on it recently, lovely bike! Love the vids man!
Lol i have a Red xj6 with Black widow 😎🤜🏻🤛🏻
Is it comfortable for back passenger?
Hey Spicy, so I got a Black Widow fitted to my xj6 divvy. Removed the ugly centre stand too. What a difference!
Am I imagining it or is it actually faster?? Maybe the sound makes me feel it is. Have you tested it yourself?
Just saw you have 7 bolts. My engineer charged me 300 quid to fit as it was a nightmare but I'm lucky to have all 8 it seems...
It is the sound, it wants to rev out and all that extra noise just makes it feel faster. I am sure of this as the same thing happened in my mind with my old 125cc bikes and they 100% did not get any faster. Knowing what a pig those bolts can be £300 is pretty fair!
The xj6 was one of the maybe bikes on my list (when I can finally get my mod2 sorted) but being 6'4 also the size was a concern. The cb600 I've been training on was giving me all types of problems, mainly cramp 🙄, but seeing you find the xj comfortable gives me hope 👍
Have a look at the Vstrom 650 for a comfy middleweight for the taller rider, lovely V twin engine to
101 steel yooo they are really good bikes well I have one 13 plate and they are comfortable to ride never get a cramp lol
@@lukesater53 I got cramp during my mod1 lol.During the 40 minute ride back from the test centre, I had to stop due to numb feet 🙄
Planning to buy an used XJ6 as my first bike. Mainly for commuting. How is the commute and the fuel econmomy? Thanks!
do a video on all the bikes you own. i only own 1 and it's a limited edition derbi senda drd evo (50). CBT got cancelled due to the current problems in the world tho so
I'm genuinely surprised you don't find the xj6 on the small side. I know I did at 6' 2". Great bikes though and Iv had quite a few.
Going off subject, can anyone tell me what the CO adjustment does on (adjusted via the clocks) and is more better ?
Always wanted to know i prefer the xz6 naked but find the diversion modles more popular can I buy one and convert it to a naked bike or will there be mounting points to remove
Had my 62 plate Divvy until I sold it for the 765 triumph Street triple a few weeks ago. Must admit while riding down to pick up the new bike I said to my self why am I selling this, absolutely brilliant bike the xj6
and what do you say now?
@@Caledonia3104 I would say now that I miss Divvy but we'll pleased with striple, striple is ace
I thought the detuned R6 was the FZ6 (Fazer) not the XJ6. I have had both and felt that the divvy was a good all rounder/ideal first bike but under powered tbh. The FZ6 had a bit of serious grunt about it. That said its down to the preference/opinion of those that has it and i appreciate that. Why did you de sticker it, never really understood that one and why people do that, other than to possibly disguise what it actually is. It puzzles me
They are both a detuned version of the R6, with difference performance and for a slightly different audience.
When u see spicys hit 80k!!! 😂😂
Nice bike, one issue for me is the exhaust can angle, I'd have to have it kicked up more >
You can't that's the angle of the mid pipe extension.
Spicy, where do I recognise your username from? I used to be obsessed with watching drz supermoto videos before I had my bike licence, did you have one of them? 🤔
I still do
@@spicy110 daaamn that’ll be it then! I don’t recall your face so maybe it was before you did a face reveal and only did vlogs? Think I used to watch Jake the Garden Snake too if he’s still about...
Thinking of getting this for a first bike. Would welcome any views?
Wot a gr8 sound …💙💯🙏😱
Oh it looks like one of them sports bikes
wasn't this exact bike the one the shop kept loaning you when Derek was ill?
Yes, I rode the thing so much when I was looking for a second bike I just put the idea out there that what if it were for sale and a conversation started and I bought it.
@@philr80rt are you trying to tell spicy his own history?
@@philr80rt in what way? is it in a similar way to how it can be argued that i've never paid for anything, as work has paid for everything?
@@philr80rt Philip Murphy I did pay for it with money so I did buy it, that's all I was saying. Yes that money came from donations and the history is all there on video. I'm not trying to hide that fact, the video "my subscribers bought me a bike" is pretty self explanatory. But your memory of that situation is quite different to reality, if anyone wants to check what I acctuly said and how that all happened the videos are there. The reason there was such a reaction to it was I had been making videos for 5 years off my own back and people were always saying set something up and I always said no. When I did they all helped of there own free will, I think the 5 years of videos could be considered working for it.
@@philr80rt I asked people if they thought it was a good idea as it brought a new element to the channel and helped keep miles off the DRz and they agreed. Also if you remember and I guess you don't for a long while after that I was making donations to air ambulance from merch sales. As they say you are entitled to your own opinions not your own facts. The videos are there and all people have to do is watch the videos and listen to what I said at the time.
I'm going o moan about the end can sorry!
Its tooo straight some how it needs tilting up at the end!
Many moons ago i brought a new 1998 Yamaha fazer had it for 12 years a do everything bike, did 55k
Would still have it if i lived in the UK now 🏍🏍🏍
Is the XJ6 and FZ6R the same bike
yes but I am not sure if all parts cross over.
Is comfortable for back passenger??
My other half says yes it is but note she is 5'4.
@@spicy110 my girlfriend is 5,7. What do you think?
No issues.
Well it's big fat thumbs up from me...............👍
Kms or miles per hour?
He's in the UK ! miles a hour🏍
To whomever clicked subscribe when it was at 79999,
*THANK YOU IT WAS DRIVING ME NUTS*
I love everything on her... ;)
50k miles bloody hell she's a minter
Spiceeeeeeeeee !!!!!!😁👍
They are so different to the old diversion that was so ugly and dull
What a dreadful looking exhaust!
I was testing a second location at the time, it's under mounted again now. I had the link pipe so thought I would see what it sounded like.
love in line 4s .. they sound great .. ive got a bandit 650, that's same
The bike does look and sound cool though 👍 👍 👍
3:00 Jan 2017 isn't it? ☺️
