Strange trike

Yamaha have shown a number of concept trikes recently including the 'off road scooter' styled 03GEN-X.

Certainly different! However, I think it's an interesting concept - an 'adventure scooter' for riders with a disability. Having a 3 wheels layout with 2 wheels at the front will give it stability, it has a luggage rail behind the saddle to carry a folding wheelchair, and large footplates to support the riders feet (I assume these could be fitted with straps for riders with poor foot control).



 Really cool styling, although I'm not sure about the woodgrain rear mudguard panel!

Will it ever reach the shops? Who knows, but it's good to see a major manufacturer thinking about riders with mobility problems - lot cooler than one of those electric mobility scooters!
