YAMAHA/Gordon Murray Sports Ride Concept

[LaurasOtherHalf]

No idea why this hasn't been plastered all over the PH front page

Carbon fibre tub'd version of Murry's iStream design, sub 1000kg, possible bike engine-what's not to like?

Not much further to add I'm afaid but the rumour is Yamaha's largest bike engine and it will be in the front of it (which makes the exhaust positioning & lack of transmission tunnel "unique"!).

Looking at that chassis, it has to be mid-engine, right?

You'd think so, I'm presuming lazy journalism for the front engined comment.

Still, looks tremendous doesn't it?

That looks fugging awesome

Any more pics? Is it likely to see production? What's the story?

Video of it on the stand. Does look rather nice.

Like an Elise built by pagani I think.
