Yamaha XS-V1 Sakura for Tokyo Motor Show

Retrobike Yamaha XS-V1

Yamaha XS-V1 Sakura concept motorcycleYamaha keeps rolling out the concepts for the Tokyo Motor Show and the XS-V1 Sakura follows the same retro line as the Honda concepts revealed a short time ago.

The press release is long on philosophy and short on detail but the Sakura looks like a nice throwback to a standard motorcycle.

From the Yamaha press release:

We display the “XS-V1 Sakura” (special exhibition model / prototype) as a symbol of our long-nurtured corporate philosophy. This is a V-twin sport model with a look of “Japanese style” in the image of Yamaha’s first 4-stroke model, the XS-1 (650cc), released in 1970. Its design is full of XS-1 DNA, in its simplicity and functional beauty and finds new refinement in a retro-modern aesthetic. It is a model that proposes a very Yamaha and very Japanese vision of premium motorcycling life, bringing together the unique characteristics of a 1,000cc air-cooled, V-twin model with its strong pulse feeling and easy-going running performance in a finely crafted body that is lightweight and slim and defined by a low seat height.
