Yamaha is proud to announce a two-year deal with MotoGP series promoter Dorna that has seen the Japanese motorcycling giant become the Scooter Supplier of the MotoGP World Championship. The agreement, which was sealed on the eve of the opening round of the 2005 season held in Jerez, Spain includes Yamaha supplying the championship organizer Dorna with a fleet of limited edition 50cc BW’s scooter which will be used through the 2005 and 2006 seasons.
