All I remember seeing (in MCN) was this picture of a patent drawing a while back (August 2010)...



It's of an X not an R and suggests things like it'll be styled along the lines of the Ducati Hypermotard and Aprilia Dorsoduro, plus it will have USD forks, but motor will be the same.

If you believe what MCN (More Crap than News) writes in their worthless paper, you'd believe that Martians have landed in Essex of all places looking for inteligent women who can spell their own names.

That is an artist sketch if there was a new redesigned XTX / XTR / XTZ or XT1200Z be sure I've got inside contacts and I'd be one of the first to know and tell you all about it.

Agree entirely, but zenity's post was asking for "rumours" - MCN is the best place to look for them!

I must be insane, but I checked out the US Patent Office online and the reference on the drawing does refer to a genuine Yamaha application for a patent (refers to a specific improved design of exhaust system). If you read the description of the bike in the application it certainly sounds something like an XT660?

It may well be a load of bull, then again it might not, its just a rumour...

Looks allot like a sketch of a Honda FMX front end to me but with an 660 motor and rad.
