Yamaha Majesty 400

[TINTED PRICE BOX OUT]
RRP: £5899 (plus OTR)

[TEXT]
The Majesty 400 looks quite similar to the Burgman, but (in my opinion) the styling is a bit more up to date so it’ll appeal to a broader spectrum of riders. I quite enjoyed riding this one, although as we got closer to the coast and the roads turned into bumpy ‘B’ lanes, its suspension struggled to cope quite as well as the Burgman, GP800 or Satelis. It just didn’t feel quite as well damped. At the time, myself and Stef were putting the scooters through some rigorous testing though on very dodgy roads!
Yamaha have built the Majesty with a die-cast alloy chassis and they’ve tried to keep the centre of gravity as low as possible, which does help with slow speed handling; it’s also pretty stable as you get to the top end. Acceleration is brisk on the Majesty, (slightly faster than the Suzuki at any rate) and when it gets going the 33.5bhp 395cc fuel injected engine seems to have plenty of mid-range grunt, which is always useful for overtaking. The bike was almost new with just 633 miles on the clock, so there’s still a chance it could loosen up a bit more and nudge that top speed into three figures.
The Yamaha scores well on practicalities; it has bags of room under the seat (or should that be room for bags under the seat)? It’s also got a lockable glovebox for keeping your mobile and a bit of change for tools at reach and there’s plenty of weather protection from that large front fairing and screen. I found the seating position to be comfortable with enough room to stretch my legs a bit if need be and the riders backrest helped to cushion my back, the pillion seat looked quite plush too.
Like any scooter, the Yamaha Majesty won’t appeal to everybody but if you’re looking for something relatively quick which can quite easily take the place of a city car and do a much more convenient and faster job of getting you to work, as well as being more than capable of touring, then the Majesty is wor

It all started here. Sheene and racer Gordon Keith, winner of the 1964 Manx Lightweight Grand Prix, pictured by Nick Nicholls at a Brands Hatch practice day on 17 February 1968 - two weeks before Sheene made his race debut at the Kent circuit on Saturday 2 March. Barry, 17, was there that February day to gently run in the engines of two Bultacos his father Frank had tuned for the coming season. Barry returned the following week to complete the job and went so well he ended up racing them. At the time, Frank was the famous Sheene because of his tuning talent and it was the bikes not the young rider, that made the picture newsworthy. (You tube)

How's this for a smart Honda? This CB77 three-o-five is owned by 23 year old Tony Eldridge. But it's a Honda with a difference, Tony took delivery of it in the crate from Reads of Leytonstone. Then he gave it the treatment; all the silver-finish parts were re-stove enamelled and the light-alloy castings were polished to a mirror brightness. In short, the machine received the sort of meticulous attention that no mass-produced job could ever get. It's an Eldridge special right down to that number - M(o)y One, D!

The Cheetah - it's finished in red and cream - is unorthodox in appearance. Yet it is sturdy and just right for the job. Such small (12in) spoked wheels are unusual - and they give the Cheetah a very attractive, squat appearance.

Ducati cruiser
Ducati Cruser - The Cruiser was the first ever scooter ever made by Ducati. It was a very advanced design when it debuted in 1951 with a single cylinder 175cc ohv engine, automatic transmission with a hydraulic torque converter, shaft drive, 12 volt electrics and an electric start – the first on a scooter. With bodywork by Ghia and a two-tone paint job the Cruiser was a very nice piece of kit, but the engine had to be detuned for the Italian market and was limited to 50mph. It was too expensive for a country still bearing the scars of WWII and went out of production after two years with only about 2000 sold.
