What they're NOT telling you about the Yamaha Niken

I think this bike would be great for touring

Safe and doesn't fall easily like two wheels.

where was the wheelie very sad

Death Stranding did it better

It's ugly sorry

klo pancit satu tayar ok lg ke???

If theyre that good, how come I've never seen one on the road? Bikers in the UK stick to two wheels but if they ride a trike, the two wheels are at the back.

Losing front grip is one of the scariest part of riding, by having 2 front wheels i think i would lean harder in turns which sounds fun

It is a trike not a bike.

This it one of the fastest depreciating bikes you can buy.
£16k new in the uk but £8k pre reg with 0 miles.
Wonder why yamaha even bother to still make these bikes when thay dont sell.

What an ugly thing.

This thing is wrong and it makes me angry.......it's the Leah Thompson of motorcycles

Back tire needs to be about twice as wide.. It looks proportionally out of place.

Personally, the only advantage I see in a 3 wheeler is that you might be able to drive it on a car lisence

They didnt tell me anything about the niken

First question is why? Innovation for the sake of innovation? An answer to a question no one asked. Wider, heavier, more expensive to buy, more costly to maintain...
Want a bigger contact patch in bad weather or road conditions? Buy 4 wheels. I think they call them cars.

Cool, they put training wheels on the front of a motorcycle.

2 500 dollar tires in the front instead of one.

Why not 2 engines then?

Why? Just why? I would never ride this. I see this and think "he wanted a motorcycle but was either too afraid to ride a real one, or his wife wouldn't let him ride a real one.

It's like a mullet business in the front party in the back

looks more like a mantis
cooler name too. the MANTIS

i dunno, i don't really see the advantages to be honest ... you gain grip and the front end, but you add weight so you under steer ...
now something cool they could do, is a Quad where you lean to turn like a bike, with the same type of suspension this one have in the front at the back aswell.
better weight distribution, more grip than a normal bike, better for lateral g-forces than a normal quad as you increase the weight on the tires ...
think it'll be not such a bad idea.

That it aint looking pretty good?

This bike kinda sounds like a small car

There are so many different spiders out there but if I had to choose, I’d say that the bike resembles a Yamaha Niken three wheel bike spider. It definitely looks like one of them.

It's ugly as sin

Stupid why bother , should buy a car

sorry, but it looks like a piece of shit.

47 in a 35

At this point... just get a car.

I’d prefer the fork tubes to be on the inside, reducing the width while keeping the distance between the wheels the same, hopefully without changing the handling. Something like the MP3. Having some kind of low speed fork lock would be useful in urban driving. I’d like not having to put my feet down!

junk

Snowmobile with wheels!

junk !

I saw one of these in a bike shop yesterday , madness, I want one.

bike looks so stupid.. and its a trike not a motorcycle

And you are doing 60mph in a 35mph zone. Mmmm......Mommy is going to be mad!

If I was going to ride in freezing cold weather, I would have worn my HEATED jacket liner.

It's strange and I bet it's Heavy. I guess the Company got Bored with there 2 wheel Bike's. Now you have to replace 3 tires and 3 set's of break's. Not for me.

Knowing that YAMAHA made it makes me believe that it's been tested endlessly, and is a good product. I think it's an engineering marvel.

Pity it looks so gay

eBay has a category for these type of machines, Reverse Trike.

i am sorry but this made my day i was laughing non stop the whole video. first though was wheel chair on steroids

In the uk it is classed as a trike or motorcycle with a side car thats the official stance however it will be listed as a bike

hate to say its a motorcycle

So the training wheels are up front instead of in the back? 😁

If u want more than 2 wheels u should just buy a car

I have a question........In the UK how come I can ride a 300cc trike vespa but need a bike licence to ride a Niken? Law in the UK dictates anything over 125 needs a bike licence
