Fancy testing out an R1? The man from Yamaha he sa

Yamaha announce Test Fest, so get in quick!

Posted: 23 May 2007
by Visordown News



REDLINING a motorbike is all the more fun when it's not yours. And that's exactly what you can do if you take part in Yamaha's Test Fest.

Until the end of July, participating Yamaha dealers will make available to you some serious kit to test ride. The bikes include:

- YZF R1

- FZ1/FZ1 Fazer

- FZ6 S2/FZ6 Fazer S2

- FJR1300A and AS

- TDM900

- MT-01 and MT-03

- XVS1300 & XV1900

They will have a minimum of 4 of these machines on their test fleet, including the R6.

Once you've been out on a test ride, Yamaha want to gather your feedback and opinions on your experience. Everyone who contributes their opinions will be entered into a grand draw at the beginning of August to win one of 50 great Yamaha Victorinox Multi-tools worth £84.99.

With the current 100% Adrenaline 0% Finance campaign still active, chances are the bike you test will come with interest free credit too.

Get out there and road test some of the finest motorcycles ever built.

For participating dealers and their machine availability, click on www.yamaha-motor.co.uk, phone 01932 358212 or talk to your local Authorised Yamaha dealer.

Have fun!

Do it guys!

This is a great oppertunity to ride an R1 or R6 absolutely hassle free.

I called up my local dalership:

CMC NOTTINGHAM
DAYBROOK SQUARE
MANSFIELD ROAD
NOTTINGHAM
DAYBROOK
NOTTINGHAMSHIRE
NG56AA
Tel: 0115 926 7720
Fax: 0115 967 3479
Website: www.cmcbikes.com

Apart from the fact they had no idea what the Test Fest was they were quite accomodating..
