The 2012 Yamaha BW’s Naked is a modern scooter packed with a wide range of new technologies which help it compete with success against its rivals.

The bike is wrapped in a pretty unique skin which gives it a fancy look. We especially like the retro style used for the front fascia and the creative paint scheme. With uncovered handlebars and stripped styling, the scooter is ready to undertake any kind of road you venture into.

The Yamaha BW’s Naked is propelled by a 2-stroke 50cc engine that delivers a maximum power of 2.4 kw @ 6500 rpm and 3.6 Nm of torque @ 6000 rpm. Power is sent to the rear wheel through a fully automatic transmission.

Other features offered by the Yamaha BW’s Naked include a lightweight chassis, fat patterned 10" tires and distinctive dual headlights. You also get a dual seat and integral passenger grab handles.

Yamaha BW's Naked

The BW’s Naked is your kind of machine: all of the fun of the original BW’s, but with everything else stripped right back. What you’re left with is unique styling and the freedom of pure riding fun.

Like every BW’s, it's all about having fun, with a zippy 2-stroke 50cc engine, fully automatic transmission, a lightweight chassis, fat patterned 10inch tyres and distinctive dual headlights. But with the BW's Naked things are taken a step further – the handlebar is exposed and the compact instrument pod takes on a minimalist style.

And because things are better shared, a dual seat and integral passenger grab handles let someone else come along for the ride.

The BW's Naked is all about having fun as you make your way from A to B. With exposed handlebars and pure styling – stripped back to the essentials – it's ready to tackle the rough with the smooth and is designed for the sheer thrill of riding.

Jump onboard and you'll see what it's all about: twist-and-go rideability, a tough steel chassis, fat patterned tyres for all types of surface, and reliable disc and drum brakes that put powerful braking under your control.

And because the styling is stripped back, you've plenty of scope to make your mark. A range of bolt-on accessories lets you customise the scooter and really make it your own.

Slick styled instrument pod

The BW's Naked features a unique, ultra-minimalist handlebar-mounted instrument pod: the LCD features all the information you need in a clear digital format. Check your speed and fuel tank with a quick glimpse over the easy-to-read speedo, fuel gauge and warning lights. And with a red backlight, it's just as useful when riding at night.

Lightweight and compact

BW’s Naked is a compact and lightweight scooter – just what you need to help get you through city traffic with a grin on your face. It’s a machine that turns each and every ride into something fun, whether it’s the middle of the rush hour, or you’re just taking a friend for a quick cruise.

Trick naked handlebars

For the purest fun-packed style, the BW’s Naked features stripped down handlebars and a distinctive, minimalist instrument pod. The foam crossbar pad, which wraps around the handlebars, carries the Yamaha name and emphasises the slick look of the machine you’re riding.

Powerful and stylish headlights

The BW’s Naked comes with a highly distinctive front end. Its slick, bright double lights enhance road presence, making sure you can always see and be seen – whatever the time, day or night. And even when they’re not being used, they look great in the scooter’s funky, stripped-down bodywork.

There’s always room for a friend

On BW’s Naked, there's always room for a friend. The roomy dual seat is complemented by integral passenger grab handles and fold-out passenger foot rests that underline the Naked’s slick style. Life’s more fun when you share it.

180 mm front disc brake for added confidence

The BW’s Naked puts you completely in touch with the road, for all the confidence and assured handling you need when zipping through the city streets. What's more, a confidence-inspiring front disc brake delivers powerful, responsive braking performance, so you’re always in control.
