2022
TY-E 2.0. Yamaha Motor unveils the TY-E 2.0 electric trial bike, developed with the aim of achieving carbon neutrality for recreational motorcycles. The company plans to enter this prototype in certain rounds of the 2022 FIM Trial World Championship. Kenichi Kuroyama of the Yamaha Factory Racing Team, who is also in charge of its development, will be the rider.
Key features of TY-E 2.0:
- The TY-E 2.0 uses a monocoque frame made of composite laminates to contribute to a lighter weight and optimal rigidity.
- The layout of the power unit and battery has been revised and corrected to achieve a significantly lower center of gravity than on the previous model.
- Yamaha has developed a new high-capacity battery (2.5 times greater than the previous model) while limiting the increase in weight to approximately 20%.
- Improved power unit through optimized mechanical parts and electronic control,
- Based on the previous model, traction has been improved by combining mechanical parts such as the clutch and flywheel with a carefully tuned electronic control system for the engine, capable of measuring subtle changes in grip.
