[QUOTE="ThwartedEfforts, post: 1410101, member: 91431"] Years ago there were rumours of Yamaha discontinuing the Tricity in key commuter-oriented markets like Thailand, but instead it grew to 155cc and the whispers were replaced with talk of a 300cc version. The fact Yamaha USA includes the 'Scooter' section as an afterthought in the design and layout of their web site makes me think you're just not going to get it. And while it has not always been the case (I've often joked that, were the choice available, I'd like to be reincarnated in America in the 50s so I could stand on a busy street corner in the 60s and watch cars), when it comes to the present day Uncle Sam is missing out. My view of the Tricity is unchanged. A shame that scooters get overlooked when they are just as much fun as motorcycles, only cheaper and easier to live with - particularly if you live bang in the middle of town or on the edge of a city. They just have a PR problem outside Europe and Asia. Does need more power though [IMG]https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//public/style_emoticons/default/lazy.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
