Yamaha FZ8 is a popular motorcycle among enthusiasts, but has there been a question of whether or not it’s suitable for beginners? Powered by a 779cc inline-four engine, the FZ8 has plenty of power that can be a little much for new riders. However, it is relatively easy to control, they say, with smooth power delivery and comfortable ergonomics making it not impossible for responsible beginners. It’s a common discussion about the balance between a bike that a new rider can grow into versus starting with something more forgiving. Other factors that play a role are the rider’s physical size, maturity, and experience (or lack of it) with other motorized vehicles. This raises the debate of whether you should build skills on a smaller bike first then move onto more powerful machines, or start on a bike you could outgrow quickly, or one that will keep you happy for longer.
