Yamaha XS-V1 Sakura Prototype
The Yamaha XS-V1 Sakura is designed to hark back to the firms first four-stroke machine, the 650cc XS-1 of 1970, but is fitted with a new 1000cc Yamaha air-cooled V-twin. Officially a prototype, rather than a concept, theres a hint that the Yamaha XS-V1 could become a production machine in the future. It doesnt feature the wacky design of many concept machines, and might easily be given the green light if theres a positive reaction to the prototype. Only the odd-looking headlight, slimline dash and over-styled brake discs look difficult to be turned into production parts.
