The Yamaha YT175 TRI MOTO, produced from 1982 to 1983, was a unique and innovative three-wheeled motorcycle designed to provide a stable and comfortable ride. It boasted a distinctive triangular chassis with a single front wheel and two wheels at the rear, offering a wider footprint and greater stability compared to conventional two-wheeled motorcycles. The YT175 TRI MOTO was a practical choice for riders seeking a comfortable and secure ride, particularly in urban areas or on less-than-ideal road surfaces. This unique design also made it particularly appealing to riders who were new to motorcycles or those who might have difficulty balancing on a traditional two-wheeled motorcycle.
The Yamaha YT175 TRI MOTO was powered by a 175cc, air-cooled, single-cylinder engine. Although not particularly powerful, it was known for its reliability and fuel efficiency. The engine was mated to a four-speed manual transmission, providing a smooth and responsive riding experience. The TRI MOTO was equipped with a telescopic front fork and a swingarm rear suspension, resulting in a comfortable and controlled ride for its time. It featured disc brakes at the front and a drum brake at the rear, ensuring dependable braking performance. The Yamaha YT175 TRI MOTO was a compact and lightweight motorcycle, making it easy to maneuver and park. Its unique design and practical features made it a popular choice for commuting, errands, and recreational riding. Unfortunately, the YT175 TRI MOTO ultimately failed to gain widespread popularity, and production ceased in 1983. In spite of its brief run, it remains a fascinating example of Yamaha's experimental approach to motorcycle design.
