Japanese media outlet Young Machine is well connected to Japan’s Big Four—to say the least. The publication always seems to have the latest scoop on new models coming out of the Land of the Rising Sun. From the 30th anniversary Honda CBR1000RR-R SP Fireblade to the revived Dax 125, Young Machine’s speculations always seem to hit the nail on the head.
With that sterling track record, it’s hard to discount the outlet’s prognostications, especially when its latest issue contains a previously trademarked model. Back in April, 2022, Yamaha filed a trademark request with the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) for the rights to the XSR GP name.
