Toyota shows lightweight concept motorcycle at SEMA

The JGR/ Toyota Motocross bike concept unveiled at SEMA had a whole lot to show, by way of Toyota logos. This lightweight motorcycle was built by putting the 2009 Yamaha YZ450F on a diet, where the motorcycle lost a lot of weight. Toyota’s concept has carbon fiber body panels, hollowed out and cross braced frame, Toyota logos, and more Toyota logos.

Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota NASCAR group put in 100 man hours on the project, and created this motorcycle from components provided by 17 contributors to create this machine. So that means there are a whole lot of changes to the Yamaha the project started with, so much, that it isn’t much of a Yamaha anymore. Maybe that is why Toyota has decided to plaster its logo all over the bike.
