In Japan, reliable sources say Yamaha is already hard at work on additional three-wheelers with the aim of turning the NIKEN into a multi-model line-up of various capacities.
The next planned version is believed to be a 250cc NIKEN-25.
Like its bigger brother, it’s motorcycle-based, with a six-speed transmission rather than a twist-and-go, and will use the parallel twin engine from Yamaha’s MT-25 and YZF-R25.
