Yamaha SRX-6

[BrianZ]

Anyone here own a Yamaha SRX-6? If so how do you like it? How is parts availability? Any known reliability issues?

i know someone with one, and i have put ~1500 km on an SRX one summer myself.

good allrounder, reliable, essentially an XT engine, fun in the twisties, sounds like sex with a pipe on it. not a fast bike, my buddy has one with a high-comp wiseco, jet-kit, slip-on and port job and it pulls 40rwhp on the dyno.

carbs are weird and a pain to work on. High mileage bikes may need 5th gear replaced (listen for a high pitched constant whine on the test ride).
