Can't say that really floats my boat. Tank looks too small (aesthetically) and those bits of plastic bolted on to cover bits/holes

TBH Yam should bring back the Yamaha SZR660.

That was really really good fun.

Hmmmm? not really sure? and why has it got a white light facing backwards?

I think the Ducati Scrambler and the MT-07 had a baby.
And it is a pretty one.



I want one

That tail light looks like a pound shop head torch.

I like that. It looks way better than MT-07. Better than Scrambler too.

Too much ugly radiator on show, easy fix with cover screen\guard.

Otherwise, I very much like it.

Maximum power - 55.0 kW
Limited power version - 35.0 kW

Would make a good A bike restricted down to A2, something different and unique appeals to me looks wise, includes a fuel gauge and gear indicator always nice to have both, not necessary but always a bonus IMO.

[moonzoomer]

A modern TDM ? well almost anything would be better than their last effort at making a big twin, other than that it looks like a parts bin special and horrible with it.

[daifuco]

It will be launched in November, that must be the least appealing time in the year to launch a bike like that. But I guess it will still sell out.

First the NineT, then the Ducati Scrambler, and now this bike. This is going to be a big trend. A lovely one.

[ScaredyCat]

They'll show it off in November / place orders but wont be available to ride away until the summer, I bet.

This looks awesome. Better than the Triumph scrambler but not as nice as the higher spec Ducatis. The Ducati 'full throttle' scrambler looks the best to me.

How big is the Yamaha dimensionally? My dad has test ridden an MT07 and says he found it slightly too small. I take it this will have an identical chassis?

[talkToTheHat]

Like it. Might be waiting until used ones hit less than 2k though.

Sooooo...worth the extra 500 quid then?

Not that I've ridden the MT 07 either but I do like the styling of this one. I'm assuming the smart option is to save the money though. I wonder if these will push MT 07 prices down any.
