The famed Japanese bike maker Yamaha is all set to introduce a new adventure tourer as a 2018 model in the lineup. The upcoming will be based on the auto major's prominent street offering the MT-07. The Yamaha T7 Concept was primarily showcased at the 2016 EICMA motorcycle show in Milan. If the surfaced reports are to be believed, the motorcycle is all geared to hit the production line and will make its global debut soon. If the Yamaha T7 will be a hardcore off-road bike as similar to rally competition bikes in comparison to the traditional adventure tourers.
If the unveiling of the Yamaha T7 Concept is concerned, it is expected to take part at the forthcoming EICMA show under the expected moniker of MT-07 Adventure. Under the fuel tank, the new Yamaha adventure bike will get the propelling power from the shared powertrain of the Yamaha MT-07. The 689 cc parallel-twin engine is capable of producing around 75 bhp of maximum power. Underpinning a new chassis, new suspension, and new swingarm, the bike weighs around 180 kg, which is much lighter than its competition.
