Here is an interesting bit of news coming out of Japan; Yamaha unveiled its latest concept motorcycle that is capable of reaching distances of 188 miles on a single gallon of gas.
Sitting somewhere between a motorcycle and a bicycle, the Y125 is a state-of-the-art machine that weighs a mere 176 lbs. Yamaha used their first motorcycle, the YA-1, as the model for their new machine; and boy does it look spectacular. I love the look of retro motorcycles (especially bikes built in the 30’s and 40’s); and this bike does not disappoint.
With a 125cc 4-stroke motor, LED lights, a belt drive instead of a chain, and a lightweight frame and brakes, this bike is a modern work of art. Unfortunately these are all the specs I can dig up at the moment, but I will definitely update as soon as I can find some more. Here is a link to more pics and a write-up at Gizmag; no doubt worth a look.
