with it being air cooled will it be a problem with overheating on a hot summers day having 2up?
also overall performance, pros and cons, what to look out for?
thanks

I've ridden air cooled bikes in the tropics ... an oil cooler (if already not fitted) will help. On the open road ... it will (usually) not be an issue ... but at low speed (in towns/city's) ... keep the rev's down ...
But if push comes to shove in the heat ... don't thrash it and you'll be fine.
But it IS a Yamaha ... and it should cope ... :blank:

I would get a local KBer to check it out. Low ks for the year could mean it needs lots of seals. Thats pretty top $$$ for an old bike.
We spent $500 less and got a 04 Bandit.

You should go and count them. Too many and your side-stand could come down mid-corner, in the middle of nowhere, late at night and miles away from a gas station or anywhere selling socks.
