This Third Wheel is a Big Deal

New Yamaha NIKEN - Ride the Revolution

What makes the Tokyo Motor Show great? The fact it’s a motor show and not a car show. Without the excitable additions of two-wheelers, it just wouldn’t be the same. And nothing is more exciting than the Yamaha Niken Three-Wheeler. Describing the Niken Three-Wheeler as utterly unique doesn’t come close to describing the form we’re dealing with here. The front of this beast looks angry, almost demonic, while the saddle reaches back over the rear wheel like some sort of tail. Edgy, futuristic, and all forms of cool, the Niken Three-Wheeler will be one of the highlights from this year’s Tokyo Motor Show.

The body design makes full use of the novel front-end suspension mechanisms pairing 15- inch front wheels with dual-tube upside-down forks. The dual front-end suspension is indeed something new to see when mid-action, coming around a bend. With TMS just around the corner, we’re going to have to wait a little bit longer to see this guy in full on November the 6th.
