Tricity

Designed In the future

Designed in the future and featuring twin front-wheels that automatically lean when cornering, the Yamaha Tricity is the only Scooter in New Zealand that you can ride on the motorway with a car licence.  It performs like a two-wheel Scooter but with an increased feeling of stability which inspires confidence and makes the Yamaha Tricity a very fun ride indeed.

The innovative Cantilever Suspension used on the front wheels ensures a very light and responsive steering feel.  A highly efficient and reliable 125cc liquid-cooled engine powers your Tricity, and is capable on city roads and the motorway.  

If you're ready to tranform your commute, the answer is the Tricity!

If you're in one of our congested cities, that's probably less than what you spend on fuel and parking for just  one year!  

On-Road-Costs are additional, but because this Scooter is legally classified as a car, registration costs are surprisingly low.

Features

Leaning Multi Wheel chassis

Hidden behind the lightweight front cowl, a lightweight parallelogram link gives the rider the ability to lean the Tricity in much the same way as a conventional two-wheel scooter. The parallelogram link's component parts are connected to the forks and the frame's steering head, and when the Tricity rider enters a turn this system allows the twin front wheels to lean over in parallel. While leaning over, the track – the distance between the twin front wheels - remains almost consistent, and this ensures a natural and intuitive feel during cornering.

Lightweight cast alloy wheels

For sure-footed roadholding and easy handling over a variety of road surfaces, the Tricity is equipped with twin 14-inch aluminium front wheels that are fitted with 90/80-14 tyres. Featuring three pairs of V-shaped cast spokes, these beautifully styled lightweight wheels complement the dynamic and elegant bodywork to give the Tricity a unique look.

125cc 4-stroke liquid-cooled engine

Powering the Tricity is a newly developed 125cc liquid-cooled 4-stroke engine that has been designed to produce good acceleration from low speeds, together with smooth higher speed operation. The engine benefits from specially designed intake and exhaust systems that enhance performance in typical urban stop/start situations, making the Tricity a strong performer in congested city streets.

Smart and practical bodywork

Yamaha’s designers have created a smart body design that accentuates the modern and aesthetic appeal of this New Mobility vehicle. The beautifully styled bodywork is functional as well as fashionable, and Tricity riders can look forward to experiencing a relaxed and comfortable ride on their journey to work. The stepped dual seat features a slip resistant material, and its generous length and substantial cushioning material ensures a comfortable journey for the rider and passenger.

Unified Brake System (UBS)

The Tricity is equipped with a Unified Brake System (UBS) that is designed to enhance stopping efficiency and deliver smoother chassis characteristics during braking. The system incorporates twin 220m diameter front discs and a 230mm rear disc, and when only the left hand brake lever is applied, the braking force is applied to the rear wheel and also to the front wheels, giving balanced and effective stopping power.
