233 lbs. Yamaha isn't saying its range (30 miles?). But they sure got the styling right.

It reminds me of two bikes: the Brammo Empulse E-Bike and the prototype Suzuki Recursion turbocharged gas bike.

I was on the waiting list for the Empulse for two years based on the preproduction price they published of $10k. But when it finally hit the dealers it was more like $18k! I was thinking it would be a fun second bike, but not at that price.

So the range is 30 miles maybe?

It's called a PESI

If Red Mist bought one (as if!) it'd be, with that range and that name, re-dubbed....

.....wait for it .....

THE PESI-MIST!

I'll get me coat..

any problem with the shock being on the very bottom to pick up all the road grime?

Yamaha love chucking the shock somewhere odd..

MT-03 anyone?

Tortuga will be appearing here all week folks. Tell your friends!

Is that a carrying handle at the top of the bike?

By the way; when did motorcycle manufacturers decide it's ok to use urine sample cups for master cylinder reservoirs? Every time I see one of those things I can't help thinking how cheezy and cheap they look. Ducati puts them on $20k Pinagles for chrissakes!

+1 on the urine samples. Some of us might think it's cool though...
Pee cup on a Beemer. Looks "racing" and cheap...
