Yamaha Niken 2018

The Yamaha Niken is a bike that many have judged too quickly. Yes, it looks a bit odd. Yes, it’s heavy. Yes, in the long run, the front end demands more attention than a standard bike. But it works. It handles surprisingly much like a conventional bike, offers good ergonomics and inspires confidence where other bikes require the rider to work harder. It’s particularly interesting on the second-hand market, as the small market and limited demand can keep prices down.

Extremely high confidence at the front

a surprisingly motorbike-like riding experience

good ergonomics

a powerful CP3 three-cylinder engine

a solid basis for touring with accessories.

heavy

less direct steering response at the front wheel

increased maintenance requirements due to two front wheels and four fork legs
