2012 FJR PROTOTYPE SIGHTED

[Slardy]

Well folks,

You may find this hard to believe, but this photo was found on Bin Laden's PC after the SEALS took him out :assassin:

I should be on dealer floors in mid-2012 :yahoo:

Where are the hard bags and windscreen? Is that the new Russell seat?

I don't think I like the changes...

 

[HotRodZilla]

Dammit! This one's silver too!

 

[semongtaulie]

I'm wondering if a V Stream or a Rifle would work better on that. What do you guys think?

 

[escapefjrtist]

Looks like horsepower won't be an issue! :lol:

What in the world is that thing?

That is an OSAMA BUSTER... :assassin:

But the really important questions are:

1) Does it have cruise control?, and

2) Is it a 6-speed?

Looks like Bin Laden was misguided about a lot of things. Yamaha has other plans. They decided to capitalize on BMW's lead with their new 6 cylinder sport touring mount. But why settle for just 6? Yamaha has decided to go with a 7 cylinder radial model for 2012. Check out the spy photo below.

ps. If you're tired of being late for work, Yammie is also showcasing their 2013 high performance radial model in the background.

no and no.

Isn't that Jay Leno's bike? I KNOW he has some sort of insane gas turbine engined bike that puts out as much HP as a top fueler, like 300-500HP and at stop-lights melts the plastic stuff on nearby cars....

Plastic and fiberglass do not a jet bike make.

Jay Leno's money, on the other hand . . .

That's just plain ugly - and the bike looks like shit too.

 

[kolonial72]

Jeez, so the Gen III is going to be even heavier than the Gen II? Mama Yama never f***in' listens.

 

[na1g]

When you get that turbine cranked up there may be just a little bit of a heat issue. Even a Gen I will seem air conditioned in comparison. Roasted chestnuts, anyone?

And that radial engined cruiser looks great, but what a wimpy little motor! I was just looking at a 28-cylinder (four banks of seven) from an old Constellation. Now that's a powerplant! (Wonder what the valve adjustment interval is?)

 

[Knifemaker]

Well, I do like the fat front tire...........

The movie bike from Priest?

 

[rfespinosa]

That thing can't handle a curve, it has a fixed handlebar. That's it, I don't want one.

 

[phroenips]

Looks like you could double darkside easily on that one!

Just got back from the movie, definitely from Priest.

The last time the one in the background was near a Yamaha production line it was dropping heavy objects that seriously disrupted distribution of all products...
