To celebrate its first 60 years they have tried hard and they made it. Sign when Yamaha you put a goal is difficult that it can not achieve the goal. And indeed the world title brands and the pilots in MotoGP with Valentino Rossi vice world champion, to which is added the world title to Romain Fevre Motocross , class MXGP , are extremely valuable sports results. To this it has contributed significantly to an undeniable technological leadership, achieved thanks to a precise plan of research and development, which for the first benefits from the whole motorcycle production of House of three tuning forks. A successful range of models, with several firsts, we could see a preview of the Motorcycle Exhibition in Milan , the most important international showcase that showcases the proposals for the coming season. Here are some of the most important ones.
MT-10
It is not just a YZF-R1 stripped, even if there is a close relationship, but Yamaha engineers have done a series of interventions on the engine and chassis, which derive from the super reference, such as to significantly change the characteristics.
Because the goal is to get a naked of the last generation that conveys the values of power and agility to new heights in the category. The engine “Crossplane”, four-cylinder 998 cc, has torque values which ensure smooth operation starting with low and medium speeds. The aluminum frame deltabox has slightly more compact size, and weight distribution more centralized, to favor maneuverability.
Other facilities we recommend the Yamaha D-Mode, which lets you choose from three different mappings of engine output , which together with sophisticated electronic throttle control will change the character of the bike from linear to sweet sport. There is also the traction control can be activated on three levels, the slipper clutch and cruise control. The design of the new Yamaha will be widely discussed, because it is aggressive to the point of abolishing the barriers between models and special series, and also because the lines of the headlight unit seem inspired by science fiction. It sure is a cool look and not trivial. Maybe we come across a new frontier of design bike.
The MT-10 will be available May 2016 in three colors: night neon, tech black and blue race. Price yet to be determined.
XSR 900
is a model inspired by the racing Dirt Track where with a Yamaha TZ750, driven by a four-cylinder two-stroke, has raged in the seventies some Kenny Roberts .
The XSR 900 was created with the collaboration of Roland Sands , the famous customizer Californian, who made on-MT-09 the spectacular concept Faster Wasp .
Compared to the original model remains both the excellent chassis is the powerful three-cylinder 850 cc. The news are in fact all aesthetic, with particular attention to less use of plastic. Change in particular the line of the seat, the 14-liter tank with cheeks aluminum . The two port lighthouse front fenders, with the support of the front, and side panels are light alloy. New look also for unloading, matte black, with the terminal of brushed aluminum. The yellow-black makes a fitting tribute to the most famous icons of the past of the Japanese House.
The XSR 900 will be available beginning in February 2016, in colors metal and garage rock slate, at a price of 9,590 euro. As for the yellow-black version, dedicated to the 60th anniversary , it takes 300 Euros.
MT-03
At first glance, closer, it does not seem petite. In fact, although it has a two-cylinder engine of only 321 cc, at a glance it has the same geometry of a balanced muscular naked medium-large displacement. The MT-03 plays its cards on the best power to weight ratio, 168 kg and 42 hp , the values that make it attractive to any type of motorcycle, because engineers at Yamaha have wanted to create a bike easy to conducting, non-binding also for those approaching for the first time in a motorcycle. Other facilities stands out the traction control that can be set to three modes.
The MT-03 will be available in February 2016, in the colors black and midnight blue race, at a price of about 5000 euro .
Some models of the range “model year” in 2016, ranging from SR400 to VMAX , through the XSR 700 , the XSR 900, XV950 Racer and XJR1300 , are enhanced by a special version with the color yellow black, called Speedblock, taking over the livery of racing bikes of the seventies, used in competition by the likes of Jarno Saarinen and Kenny Roberts .
