Peterhansel's multi Dakar winning bike (thumbs)

Yamahs should build a 900cc range version of this to compete head on with the new AT

the AT/CRF1000 motor is very similar to the S10, ( well 270degree parallel Twin)

So Yamaha have the engine sorted

, and they have a cracking Dakar history to draw on

Waste of time for going to work and the supermarket on...

And whats the fascination with dakar replicas....very few on here have the balls to enter the dakar......

Old age lusters again.

why does every manufacturer have to have the same thing to compete with everyone else? super tenere is a great twin, if you want one of such bikes.

imho the new AT is focused on 800cc market and the only reason honda did 1000 cc engine is to cut manufacturing costs - they can have a low stressed engine with plenty of torque.

But the biggest bike that you can do the Dakar on is a 450.
And virtually no one does Dakar on a converted street bike anymore.
But yes, in my opinion Yamaha do need to sort out an MT07/09 adventure bike.

somthings going to show up soon ...i hope they use the mto7 engine and keep it down to mt07 weight 170kgms

Couldn't think of a worse engine for an adventure bike.
