Yamaha FZ-10 comes with a 998cc crossplane engine, borrowed from the YZF-R1 superbike, with amazing power figures that can be terrifying to some riders. As a result, it's a subject of constant debate as to whether such a powerful naked bike is too much for everyday street use, or if it's overkill for anything other than track days. They tend to talk about the power delivery, throttle response and just how the bike rides in various conditions. There are those who say the FZ-10's electronic rider aids make it usable on a daily basis, and others who say the FZ-10 is too much bike for public roads. The conversation often includes discussions on which riding modes are best for the bike, what traction control settings are best, and how the bike performs compared to less powerful options in real world riding.
