It's
a shame that Yamaha decided to stop selling the Seca II in the
U.S., as it's one of best bikes out there for the beginning
rider who has mastered the basic controls of a motorcycle and
who wants a sporty look. In fact, it's the only four-cylinder
bike that we recommend. The engine has proven itself to be very
reliable, and delivers its 50 horsepower in a predictable, user-friendly
manner. The Seca II's chassis gives the bike superior handling,
as well as one of the most comfortable seating positions of
any bike in this category. Used Seca II's are easy to find.
Seat height: 30.5 inches.
