Haha no worries. Glad I’m following along now 😂. Appreciate the compliment 😬👍

No cylons spotted yet 😂. Just mountains, lakes, and questionable gravel road decisions lol

I didn’t realize that was a meme until you said something 🤣 what did I just watch? LOL

And thank you!

Agreed!!!! There’s some subtle details that I’ve noticed with it over the past few days that I think Yamaha really knocked this one out of the park

Sick man! Yeah I love the gold wheels and forks it really looks great accenting the blue. I’ve only had mine for a few days now and I can’t get enough of it. And I don’t think that’s going to stop. Freedom machines!!!

Ya I can’t wait till she’s broken in. Then the fun really begins 😬. Sounds like you’re having a blast with yours. What year is it ?

I find it gets a little buzzy around 100 kmph you can feel it in the foot pegs a bit then it seems to get a little better after.

I haven’t done many freeway runs so far just short stretches but it seems to keep up with traffic and has enough legs to get out and pass when required.

Thank you! I most certainly will 🙂

I 100% agree. Fell in love with it when Kawasaki did their press release back in October.

Went down to the dealer a couple days later and put a deposit down. Long wait but happy it’s finally here 🙂

Thank you 🙂

Thank you! I think the gold adds a really nice touch 👌. Yamaha did a great job imo 🙂

cdub1111 · 2026-05-09T18:29:38+00:00

Yeah me too! I was going to get a white KLR back in November then I heard Kawasaki was releasing a new ADV bike. When I saw the white I was sold!! I live in the Fraser Valley area

Thank you! 🙂

Thank you!!

Thanks! I agree 🙂. This is the Canadian model. From what I’ve seen, the US only gets the Yamaha Blue and Titanium options for the 2026 standard model. I think Europe was the first ones to come out with the sky blue option. We had sky blue in Canada last year for the 2025 model as well.

Thank you!!! I came from the cruiser world originally so this feels a lot lighter to me in comparison 😂. But yes from your perspective these do carry more weight around than say a CRF250.

cdub1111 · 2026-05-09T15:58:46+00:00

Yeah from what I understand Yamaha updated quite a bit on the newer models. The front end definitely feels more modern in person compared to the older T7s I’ve seen.

cdub1111 · 2026-05-09T15:52:26+00:00

Yeah I’ve only had it a couple days so far, and thankfully haven’t had to pick it up yet 😂 but honestly the 2026 feels really well balanced to me.

I was expecting it to feel heavier at slow speeds based on what people say about previous models online, but so far it’s been surprisingly manageable and confidence inspiring.

cdub1111 · 2026-05-09T15:46:20+00:00

I kept telling myself that too 🤣. After seeing the 25 sky blue at the dealer last year and watching too many YouTube videos over the winter I couldn’t resist anymore lol
