XS-V1 Sakura (2007): The Rebirth of XS650?


From this...

Become awesome!

And here are the rebirth of XS650... XS-V1 Sakura! The 2007 concept bike at Tokyo.







I like the engine looks gorgeous but as now the trend to fuel injection, it's not what I fully comfort about it. I prefer a carb than FI! Using full of XS-1 DNA design, as a new refinement in a retro-modern aesthetic. Powered by 1,000cc air-cooled, V-twin sport model with a look of "Japanese style" in the image of Yamaha's first 4-stroke model, the XS-1 (650cc), released in 1970.
