Brand new tyres, Immaculate clean well looked after bike, no dents, no scratches, never dropped LAMS approved beautyBrand new tyres, perfect condition. Not dropped, no dinks, excellent working condition.

What you get is feisty multi with six-speed gearbox, chain drive and frame that's essentially twin-spar steel item. The engine room is liquid-cooled, runs four valves per pot and XX,XXXrpm redline.

Starting: About as simple as it gets bit of choke when it's cold.

Suspension: Nothing to write home about, really. The XXmm forks are substantial for this class, though the only adjustment is preload on the rear twin shocks. An enthusiastic throttle jockey will overwhelm the suspension over set of ripples, but the result is entirely predictable.

Brakes: There's single disc at each end, both fitted with two-piston calipers of different design. They do the job and the lever adjustment for the front handle is welcome.

Stability: Low speed work is flighty with ultra-quick response. However the bike behaves entirely predictably at normal and pushing-on speeds.

Cornering clearance: Plenty.

Performance: Given plenty of revs (about XXXX) the bike gets away from the lights well. It will hold XXX-plus speeds happily and runs out of puff around XXXkmh. You need XXXXrpm up to get usable power, XXXXrpm to hold XXX in top, and the powerplant signs off at XX,XXXrpm. There are couple of dips and rises in the power delivery along the way.

Rider comfort: Yamaha has come up with good compromise between low seat height and still making space for bigger people. The riding position is upright, while the saddle appears roomy. Only catch is that the saddle padding tends to hold the rider in one position, which could be pain on longer trips.

Pillion comfort: There's bit of room for the pillion, and the set-up is better than average. However the rear footpegs are pretty high (though pitched forward) thanks to the twin upswept pipes on the right side.

Vibration/harshness: Nothing intrusive, even at the upper ends of te rev range. Much better than average for the class.

Finish: mixed bag. Paint is good (with clear sprayed over the main decals), though the "human sports" stickers on the tailpiece deserve to be pitched. The wiring behind the fairing looks messy.

Looks: Styling is fussy, though it looks different from the run-of-the-mill, which is point in its favour, and the twin pipes on the right won some hearts.

Extras: The mini fairing and sexy twin lights work nicely, while those who live near toll road will I'm appreciate the dinky change-holder at the front of the fuel tank. It runs DXXX tyres which seemed to work well enough in the dry conditions we had for this ride.

Value for money: At $XXXX list price, it's little cheaper than Honda's VTXXX and Kawasaki's ZZ-RXXX.

SUMMING UP

The Zeal feels and acts like an all-rounder. There's enough sporting ability to make life interesting, and sufficient urge to maintain reasonable highway speeds.
