How elegant and gentle this Yamaha Scorpio Hybrid

In Jakarta there are now Yamaha Scorpio hybrid, belonging Reindra. But, not a real hybrid, only the result of modification of the concept IZH imitated by Hybrid IZH concept of Khan Igor from Russia. He asked the home modifications such as G2C for his Scorpio made like/similar to motorcycle concept.


Wardoyo, boss of G2C because he himself had long had such a design concept, but there are no customers who want such motorbike overhauled. Although the process is not easy to admit to be recently viewed on the graffiti. Fortunately, the materials is using a plate.

Preliminary plots of the gas tank and side cover body is created as closely as possible using a plate 0.8 mm. "So, baseball is too heavy," said Ward. Before the plate is cut once mold made from cardboard.


The most unique design appears on the front suspension because it is inspired by Igor idea of a production of motorcycle IZH 1929. So, like it was closed to the plate and the condom slipped off the projector lamp on the left and right.

So that the bottom of the machine is more contained, it is fitted on engine guard with the good design. Model, nearly shut down the crankcase. "If at first glance, the designs is such as one with the installation of two exhaust," said Ward.


Another difference with the work of Igor, looking at the rear suspension. If Igor had a quasi-double, Wardoyo turn it into a single, but the rear body remains the same. Change the rear lights, it relies on a Yamaha Scorpio Jupiter Z.

Another advantage, the motor is equipped with a navigation system installed monitors Garmin GPS Nuvi type attached to the handlebars. Standard speedometer was replaced with a Yamaha Byson. (Belo)
