A limited-edition T-Max scooter, Part of Yamaha's celebrations for the firm's 50th anniversary in GP racing, along with the special colours that the M1 racers will be using at 2011 Assen and Laguna Seca,

The unique red and white livery design pays homage to the iconic Yamaha Factory Racing liveries of the past with a modern twist. “I believe that the newly designed Red and White livery not only recollects our brilliant memories in the past but also makes us feel the power to create new history,” said Shigeto Kitagawa, President of Yamaha Motor Racing.

“I love these colours,” said Jorge Lorenzo about the anniversary livery, “they really have a historic significance. Read, Agostini, they all ran similar colour schemes when they won so the opportunity to use it on the YZR-M1 is really nice. It’s a very special year for Yamaha and we hope that these colours will give us luck.”
