Blue Called, We Answered

YAMAHA MOTOR INDIA ORGANISED THEIR second Track Day event of the year. This time it was at the Madras International Circuit and we were invited to participate.

Performance is at the core of the Yamaha brand philosophy and it was heartening to see them give back to the community by providing a safe space for their customers to experience the capabilities of their Yamaha motorcycles.

Chennai is home to many motorcycle enthusiasts and most of them would jump at an opportunity to ride on the track at an affordable price. Furthermore, quite a few of them own motorcycles and scooters made by Yamaha.

The parking lot was full of Yamaha bikes from all generations; specifically from the YZF, MT, FZ, and Aerox product ranges.
