Nice bike! Looks likes street plated?

Yep, pretty much a motocross bike with lights. Not as corked up as a KTM or Husky.

Sharp looking bike!

Does it come ready to go?

(Don’t have to change tires, sprockets, emission crap, end cap, air intake)

Thinking of getting a bit newer than my 2016 500exc

New EXC is 15g, and then have to add/remove a bunch of stuff

450xcf-w is on “sale” but lose the street legal part

Yes ready to ride, comes with maxxis tires, no emission bs and is tuned to run properly. It has 2 tunes, dry and wet with a push of the button and a traction control mode.
Put on a few kms yesterday and it pulls hard like my buddies tuned, piped husky 501fes.

I bought one for the wife to ride, a 900 Rally model. She loves it. Added a steering stabilizer to it, as well as some creature comfort stuff for her (windshield, comfort seat, reverse lever kit, top box). it'll do 100 mph (indicated) with my fat azz on it, and lay 25 feet of rubber off the line.

1200, shaft drive, super reliable, and I will be on road most of the time. I only need to be able to go down gravel roads, nothing extreme. With my bad back the electronic suspension should be nice being able to adjust ride firmness from the bars. Another big plus is yamaha has a good dealer network. Ducati, BMW, KTM just have limited dealers and are really inconvenient for me. My one friend has the Africa Twin, super nice bike but I think the yamaha will be more comfy. The shaft drive is huge for me, no chain mess, adjusting or replacing. I really like the Ducati desert x but the maintenance is stupid on them, pull the fuel tank to change an air filter....I don't think so lol.
