Yamaha Trademarks YZF-R2 Name in India
Yamaha, a big motorcycle company, has officially registered the name YZF-R2 in India.

The new bike would likely fit between their existing R15 and R3 models, which have different engine sizes.
While the registration doesn't mean the bike will come out soon, it shows that Yamaha is thinking about filling a gap in their lineup.
Other companies already have bikes in this category, so Yamaha might be preparing to compete with them.
