About a month ago, we saw several photos emerge on the web in regards to Yamaha’s new naked bike based on the same engine from the YZF-R25, read here.
Recently, more photos surfaced again and this time around, the photos are definitely clearer!
While the bike’s specifications and dimensions have not yet been made available by its manufacturer, we can safely bet that the bike will carry the exact same engine as the YZF-R25 while the wheelbase may most likely be slightly shorter as well. Meanwhile, for the other parts of the world, the bike would sport the same engine as their YZF-R3 instead.
Well, I did say in the previous article that I was considering getting a YZF-R25, after the news broke out that there was a naked version in the making, I decided to put that on hold, not to mention I didn’t quite like sports bike myself.
Now, I really am excited. How soon would Hong Leong Yamaha Malaysia (HLYM) bring this in, and can they keep up with the demand as the YZF-R25 is on the rise, while supply is really low.
