Conclusion - what sticks
The new Niken GT is above all a great touring motorcycle! Thanks to the tilting technology, it is extremely safe to drive and where you give up with a normal motorcycle in the rain in winding areas and head for the next café, the fun really starts with the GT! No curve is too tight with the GT, no lean angle too risky. Even not so experienced bikers can really enjoy it - at least that's how I felt!Many thanks to Yamaha for inviting us to the presentation of the Niken GT in Sardinia. Flights, accommodation and meals were paid for by Yamaha, but no influence was made on our reporting. In other words, I would have written the report in the same way if we had done the GT at a dealership, as is usually the case with us.
