Yamaha to launch adventure concept

Yamaha will be lifting the curtain on a unique concept adventurer, the Worldcrosser, at Carole Nash Motorcycle Live later this month.

Created by Yamaha to accentuate the brand’s adventuring and rally-raiding heritage, the new Worldcrosser concept bike, which the company says will not be put into production, takes the adventure segment one stage further.

Based on the XT1200Z Super Ténéré, the Worldcrosser shows globetrotting explorers a new way to travel around the world. Fully-equipped and with a performance focus, the machine includes an exclusive range of lightweight chassis components, making this high-specification machine perfect for adventurous riders who want a supremely capable motorcycle for a tough global challenge.

By creating the Worldcrosser concept model, Yamaha has underlined the true spirit of the Super Ténéré. With the addition of a few specialist components and the replacement of some of the standard parts, this rugged adventure bike is ready for the most exciting off-road adventure.
