Overview |
Motormag |
Designed as a cross between a mountain
bike and a motorcycle, the
Yamaha Air Tricker sure looks cool. First shown back in 2005, the
Tricker concept is powered by a liquid-cooled, single-cylinder,
four-stroke, five-valve 249cc engine and has a five-speed gearbox.
The 88kg bike can seat one person, and runs on 21-inch (front) and
18-inch (rear) wheels, shod with dual-purpose tyres. The handlebar can
turn a full 360-degrees and the chassis is made of carbonfibre.
There’s also BMX-style Öhlins front forks and semi side link rear
suspension, both of which were specifically engineered for this bike.
If it looks like a BMX bike with a motor, you have already got
the idea. Available in Japan for a few years already, the Yamaha Tricker is now
a production model in Europe.
At a claimed weight of 260 pounds, the air-cooled 249cc
Tricker probably rides a bit like a BMX bike, as well.
