Yamaha has released images of two new design concepts – the 03GEN-f and the 03GEN-x, based on the leaning multi-wheel Tricity – a trike that uses two wheels in the front and one wheel in the back.
The 03GEN-f was designed with the underlying theme "Future Racing", and it visually expresses both the futuristic feel – which is expressed by emphasizing the Leaning Multi Wheel mechanism – and Yamaha's racing image.
It is a partly faired concept and is made for road use – mostly for city and highway duties. It looks and is built much like a scooter with a feet forward riding position with the engine and transmission combined in the swingarm. From the images, however, the 03GEN-f certainly looks more like a concept than a production ready design.
The 03GEN-x, on the other hand, with "Cross" as its underlying design theme, combines both an advanced-looking frame that exposes the three wheels and what Yamaha says has ‘the traditional off-road design reminiscent of the days of unpaved roads’.
This one borrows the same idea as the road oriented 03GEN-f, but with an off-road oriented personality. The design language of the ‘x’ is classic scrambler, featuring knobby tyres, wire spoke wheels and a rising exhaust. Unlike the 03GEN-f however, the 03GEN-x looks more production ready.
We’re not sure if Yamaha is planning to get these two concepts to the assembly line, but if they do, we do hope the motor is added some more juice than the 125cc engine on the Tricity. With those butch, “let’s get dirty” looks, the 03GEN-x sure seems like a fun package, on, er, three wheels.
