Yamaha Motor is adding a Special Edition to its Class-2 moped scooter, the CYGNUS X, drawing visual inspiration from the flagship supersport YZF-R1M. Wrapped in a carbon-and-black-toned body with a dedicated suspension finish, this 800-unit limited edition is priced at ¥402,600.

There it is, the Cygnus X special edition. Wrapping a practical, easy-convenient-fast 125 in R1M's carbon-and-black look is basically cheating. Limited to 800 units at 402,600 yen, with dedicated suspension too. There's nowhere a scooter can't take you, and it's amazing when your companion gets a face with this much attitude.

The 800-unit limited-run gimmick — Yamaha's always been great at this.

For the same money you could just buy an NMAX or PCX.

A Cygnus in R1M colors feels unfair. With only 800 units, this is going to be a scramble.

400,000 yen for a Class 2 moped scooter — I'd rather buy the base Cygnus and use the difference for new tires.

It's basically a Cygnus underneath, and with R1M-style trim it's 402,600 yen — that feels overly aggressive.

It says dedicated suspension, but the engine's probably carried over unchanged.
