TÉNÉRÉ TRAGICS DREAMING:

THE STORY BEHIND YAMAHA'S WORLDCROSSER

You can’t possibly call yourself a Ténéré Tragic if you haven’t been drooling all over your computer keyboard and monitor for the past few weeks since Yamaha unveiled the Worldcrosser concept bike at the Intermot Show in Germany last month.

The Worldcrosser is a Yamaha XT1200Z Super Ténéré on steroids!

Now Yamaha has revealed the story behind the brawny blue machine, via the Yamaha Design Cafe web site:

Copy the link into your web browser and then clink on the Worldcrosser links and follow the page prompts.

Try as I might I'd love to be able to pull the strings to get the Worldcrosser to the Flinders Ranges for our Ténéré Tragics festival, but somehow I think there's a very long list of people wanting to throw a leg over this snarling blue beast ... but hey, that's not gonna stop me from asking!

And it shouldn't stop any truly Super Ténéré Tragic from taking an XT1200Z and building their own Worldcrosser!
