Over the past few weeks we have been watching how manufacturers have been preparing their new releases ahead of the upcoming 2015 Tokyo Motor Show, which will take place from October 29 in the Japanese capital. Yamaha will present 20 new releases, some of which we have already had the chance to see, such as the two electric concepts. But they are not the only concepts that will be present on the brand’s stand.

One of these concept motorcycles is the Yamaha Resonator 125, which combines a very retro look with current components and elements. The aim is to attract young buyers, with very attractive performance, a light weight and an instrument panel more modern than its styling might suggest.

Another of the Yamaha concepts we will see at the 2015 Tokyo Motor Show is a three-wheeler that will use the LMW (Leaning Multi Wheel) system, which uses two front wheels in the style of the Tricity. At first glance, this model looks more solid and larger than the model it is based on.

This concept features dual suspension on the two front wheels on the outer side, which improves the motorcycle’s behavior when cornering. There are no technical specifications for this model, so we cannot offer much more information. We also do not know whether this show model will ever move into production or whether the novelties they present on it will appear in future versions of the models that already exist.

An electric all-terrain bicycle, named YPJ-MTB, will be another of the concepts Yamaha presents at the 2015 Tokyo Motor Show. It is a bike that allows the power of the electric motor to be used in moments when more strength is required, such as overtaking, very steep hills and other similar situations.

Its originality lies in its brushless motor and a battery that lasts longer than usual. In addition, the instrument panel is very complete and offers the user a lot of information.
