YAMAHA MOTOR CO., LTD.
The flagship motorcycle model symbolizing Yamaha Sport Motorcycles. Its face, designed in the image of having no headlight, not only contributed to the development of a light, slim, and compact body but also reduced air resistance by 8 percent from the existing model. Thus, the top aerodynamic performance of the class was realized.
