The YECVT 'TURBO' feature of Y-Shift*, ABS, as well as the capabilities of the latest NMAX handles are helpful on river touring. The latest generation of VVA Bluecore machines provide powerful performance that is ready to face various road conditions.

This time, participants explored the Thousand River City before continuing their journey to enjoy the natural beauty and tourist destinations in the Meratus Mountains, Loksado," said Chief Yamaha Territory 8 Tintan Gunawan, when met in the Kalimantan area.

This activity certainly provides an unforgettable experience for VOI, with various interesting experiences in every area visited. Loksado, for example, is not only famous for its natural beauty that attracts the attention of bikers in Kalimantan.
