Ancient thread from 2008, where rumors of a Yamaha 250 sportbike were first discussed on this board. If it does finally get released in 2015, it only took them 7 years.

I like the look quite a bit, but it's going to need to perform at least as well as the Ninja 300 if it is going to succeed in the US. If it can't, then it won't be able to compete against the Honda 500's either, almost certainly keeping it from being profitable in this country.
