Buying Guide for New Yamaha Niken and Aftermarket Parts

Yamaha has turned the 3-wheeled sports bike dreams of its fans into reality with its new amazing looks.

In addition to its impressive look and fork head, the Niken has an amazing front axle which is supposed to offer more stability.

Moreover, to maintain a riders balance on the Niken, Japanese engineers have particularly developed their LNW technology (leaning multi wheel) already used on the Tricity 125.

By equipping the Niken with the new tilt system (where each wheel of the front axle draws a circle of the same radius, to compensate for the lack of differential), the ride is all set to win the hearts of both returning and potential customers.

Also, both arms of the ride are equipped with a reversible fork, which is adjustable in compression and relaxation, while the damper is fully adjustable.

In addition, Yamaha has favoured a rather narrow track width on the three-wheelers segment: 410 mm, separating the two front wheels of the Niken.

For the rest, the Niken sports a degree of inclination of 45 ° which, with the wheels of 15 inches, would ensure a good performance curve.

Once the driver is seated on the saddle, the weight distribution would be perfectly balanced between the front and rear.

Another great benefit of owning the Yamaha Niken is the relatively inexpensive cost of its replacement parts. It is quite cheap to replace or customize the ride with aftermarket and OEM bike parts.
