I figured a translation of the headline wasn't necessary. For anyone out there who is a Yamaha fan with a secret hankering for an MP3, best put EICMA into your diary.
They are late to the party: we all know the MP3 has been around for yonks, the Metropolis is now on sale if France (there were 1000+ pre-orders) and there's also the Quadro and Vectrix bubbling around too.
In recent news , we envisage the coming short-term one, or even three-wheeled Yamaha. That is confirmed!
The President of Yamaha, Hiroyuki Yanagi, confirmed Wednesday, July 3rd exit 2014 with a three-wheeler, which you can see a "stolen picture" below cons (info relayed by MSN Japan ). He also announced the upcoming production of a micro four wheeler motor. The Tesseract , a prototype in 2007, is not (yet) in the program. He also stated that "Leaning Multi Wheeler" (a "multi-tilt wheels"), not "three-wheeled scooter" is different from the rest of the existing European production: the three-wheeler Yamaha has a vocation much more sporty utilitarian. If one believes the scheme (in gallery) specifications, it would not even any pretense "practice." This three-wheeler driven leisure sport it look like more of a motorcycle?
If you look at the picture in detail, we see that the pilot is quite far from the handlebar, with outstretched arms, like on a T-Max. The suspension system of the front seems to be closer to that of an MP3 or a Quadro than a Peugeot Metropolis. The front wheels may well be of a diameter of 14 inches, guaranteeing greater stability. "Global" production, the future three-wheeled Yamaha announced a price "content": 1 million yen ($ 10,000 = € 7,750). To compete head Italians and French to a European price around € 8500, so it is likely that the first model so in 400 cm3 engine with X-Max - Majesty. A "Tri-Max" 530 will necessarily be much more expensive ...
The three-wheeled firm forks to be presented in November at the Tokyo Motor Show, then at EICMA in Milan. It's tomorrow!
