If Furion ever releases the Hybrid Niken will it be a 2019 or 2023 version?

When Furion designed a motorcycle in the past were they widely available for purchase or just on an pre-order basis?

I think the combo of the 2023 upgrades in Hybrid form would be amazing, albeit maybe cost prohibitive from some of us 😐

Can the new quick change and the screen be mounted on previous models...?

I hope so. Unknown at this time until owners start taking delivery of the first batch of 2023 Nikens and accessories.

Unknown if the Furion ever made it out of concept and whether any real customers placed orders.

Some accessories available through the Yamaha Europe website available for the Niken GT.  Key items that caught my eye included 30L hard cases, heated rider and passenger comfort seat, as well as TPMS sensors  (unknown at this time if any of these can be retro fitted to pre-2023 Nikens).

Have to say that after reviewing all the updates made to the 2023 Niken GT, I'm curious where Yamaha got its feedback for future changes from.

Don't know if they commissioned a focus group or if they actually used our Niken forum and scanned all of our topics since they seemed to address most of our biggest gripes with the platform with the exception of addressing auxiliary lights, front fenders not long enough and the stock mirrors.

The TPMS listed as an accessory for the Niken has only two sensors. It is identical to the Steel Mate TP-901 Pro which says the sensors are marked front and rear. I'm guessing it can't be made to work with the three wheels on the Niken?

New video actually shows the new Niken GT kitted with some kind of fender extenders on the front (see 0:00:29 second mark) - don't know if these are OEM stock now but at least these will help combat the mud rooster tails that get kicked up front the original stock fenders.

It seems that's not standard equipment of new Niken from Polish Yamaha's site search.image.thumb.png.1367a5aa0c00720a7e873b3190923907.png

I found the mud flaps finally. But now more info than on the web site.
