There's a WR450F "Viaje a Africa" 2 track thing for sale at my local moto shop. It's basically a WR450F but with a hose going to the front hub for two wheel drive. It's completely stock. I guess down in Africa you need two wheel drive for the hella gnar gnar stuff, like sand. I think Honda makes one too, I believe it's in the XR family. Here's a link to the Yamaha page: http://www.yamaha-motor.es/products/motorcycles/competition/competition_overview.jsp
that's not a pipe...that's a coffee mug! It's the Starbucks Sprinter. Hop on, zip down for a no whip, 2 shot mocha choca latte decaf and fill 'er up at the drive thru.
christ whats wrong with you guys, it's a concept bike, you know the type of projects where designers get to go nuts and not have to worry about having to sell it to you nimrods
I have the oportunity to ride a Paris dakar Rally modified Yamaha Two wheel drive WR450 for a few hours and also a "Secret Prototype" from another brand ussing the same Ohlins sistem with bigger displacement and I can tell you the ridability and advantage traction in losee terrain is impresive, specially in slippery surfaces Dohhh,, well Yamaha also have a R-1 with two wheel drive that is soppose to haul A^^.
anyway Ohlins (part of yamaha) is being working on this hydrolic sistem for about 10 years and the sistem is pretty much all work out or at least to a stage that makes it viable and a sound product to purchase even if for now they are far more expensive that the normal WR's.
PS: sorry i have fotos somewere but I can not find them to safe my life..
I'm thinking about buying a WR450F next spring, as the crapbox I'm on now is pooched.
I'd love to get my hands on the dual drive setup...would be a totally new monster to drive, pulling you through corners!
