Yamaha OR2T

[pista]

The real reason Yamaha hasn't released any 2016 FJR info...they've been busy working on this 4 wheel, leaning bike with a Tenere engine.

Well since I can't link to it, I guess Google is your friend if you want to check it out.

Won't be cheap when needing to replace tires.

Dunno if the source will break the link to this picture -->

It sure does add some complexity and extra parts. Tell me again, why are we doing this?

There's the answer.

Now what was the question?

I'd hate to pay the tire bill on that thing.

I'm sure the Slingshot owners will add it to their garage.

Since "the law" says that three wheels do classify the Polaris Slingshot as a motorcycle, what happens if "the law" decides that those four wheels make the OR2T legally a car? It won't pass the crash tests, it has no seat belts, et c. It may never get to the USA then, and maybe not to other countries as well. I expect the lawyers will have some fun with this one.

Hey, the Dodge Tomahawk was a four-wheeled bike.....

Wait, wha??? Was I trying to lend credibility to the Yamaha? I think I f'd that up!
