2017 INTERNATIONAL MOTORCYCLE SHOW REVIEW

Yamaha's T7 concept bike
will be released soon…
"By the end of 2018 we will release a final
road version of the T7 concept bike."
-Eric de Seynes,
Yamaha Europe's COO
This was one of the
bikes of the year—
Yamaha will sell
truckloads of this
T7 once it goes into
production.
BMW will not race
in MotoGP...
"Our focus is not to serve
MotoGP; it is to serve the
customers. We will always try
to build the best superbikes
that money can buy, but for a
broad range of customers, not
two or three pilots that run
around in circles."
-Stephan Schaller,
President of BMW Motorrad
The last time BMW was in the
MotoGP paddock was with
Colin Edwards and Forward
Racing back in 2012. It was
a disaster and BMW isn't
coming back.
