interesting.
I just read that too. I'm sure it'll be some terrible throwback motorcycle. I'm tamping my expectations lol.
Probably going to be a letdown. Not sure if electric would be better than 4 stroke
they may be renewing it so somebody else doesn't use it.
I'd prefer an EFI 2t final hurrah model, but im not holding my breath either.
An EFI 2-stroke, like the Langen...dare to dream. Yamaha could do it, if they wanted to and could justify the small sales numbers, I think. I'm going to hold my breath and research used kidney prices.
Hopefully Yamaha doesn't go down the same path that Ford did. Ford ruined the legendary names of Mustang and Lightning with 2 really stupid electric vehicles. As a long-time owner of both performance ICE models, it more than just pissed me off! :rant-1:
agreed. that was just stupid. at least the kawi H2 was a no joke balls out bike.

Since we're dreaming... Skidoo/Rotax has a turbo two stroke that passes California clean air... and my impression is Yamaha is much smarter than Rotax... MUCH SMARTER
may well be a 4T like the H2, Yamahas answer to the ZX4.
My dream bike....a 450cc triple?

Yamaha should do it based on the sole fact they single handily destroyed 2-strokes in MX/SX.
