Yamaha Niken 2019 vs. Yamaha Niken GT 2024

Yamaha Niken 2019

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.
