Yamaha TY-E
Admittedly I don't follow the world of Trials or electric motorcycles much so maybe this is old news. However, I was quite surprised to see Yamaha dipping their toes into an electric trials bike. The one thing I found particulary interesting is that it still has a mechanical clutch mated to the electric motor....
