2024 Yamaha YDX-Moro 07 30th Anniversary: THE SILVER SURFER.
Introducing the new 2024 Yamaha YDX-Moro 07 30th Anniversary…
Exclusive new Factory Silver MORO 07 30th anniversary model
To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the world’s first production eBike, Yamaha announces the launch of the special limited-edition MORO 07 in exclusive Factory Silver colour.
Its innovative Dual Twin frame features a high-quality Factory Silver finish that echoes the style of Yamaha’s YZ motocross models that have been winning World Championships for half a century. Just like motocross racers, MTB riders are constantly pushing the limits on challenging terrain, and this special MORO 07 is aimed at customers who appreciate Yamaha’s advanced chassis and drive unit technology.
Blue accents on the new Factory Silver MORO 07 underline the technology crossover between the YZ motocross bikes and this premium eMTB, and dedicated graphics highlight the 30th anniversary of Yamaha’s pioneering Power Assist System that launched an exciting new era for every bike rider.
To celebrate 30 years since Yamaha created the world’s first production eBike, the premium MORO 07 eMTB is available in an exclusive Factory Silver finish. Inspired by Yamaha’s Grand Prix winning motocross bikes, the MORO 07’s unique dual twin frame with full RockShox suspension provide the ultimate pure ride experience.
You may be surprised to discover that Yamaha developed the world’s first production eBike 30 years ago. In fact, Yamaha has been building eBikes for the Japanese market for the last three decades – as well as supplying the eKits that drive many of the eBikes sold in Europe. And the new MORO 07 is the start of an exciting new electric future for the company.

Back in 1993, many years of research and development by Yamaha finally came to fruition when the company revealed a new kind of bike featuring its innovative Power Assist System (PAS). Consisting of an electric motor powered by a battery and equipped with a computerised controller linked to torque and speed sensors, the Yamaha PAS was the world’s very first production eBike. Aimed at commuters and shoppers in the Japanese market, the original Yamaha PA26 was the beginning of a new era in zero-emission powered transport that would ignite the whole eBike movement.
Yamaha: The eBike pioneer
Since 1993 Yamaha has pioneered the development of every aspect of the eBike, including drive units, electronic control technologies, batteries, interfaces and chassis designs. At the same time as producing complete eBikes for the Japanese market, Yamaha has also been supplying eBike System kits to major European bike manufacturers since 2013.
In 2018 Yamaha launched its range of eBikes into the global market starting in the USA and entered selected European markets in 2022 with three new models: the MORO 07 eMTB, Wabash RT gravel eBike and CrossCore RC do-it-all urban eBike. Thirty years since producing the world’s original eBike, Yamaha is established as one of the most innovative brands in this rapidly expanding market that is transforming daily life for commuters and adding an exciting new dimension for leisure and sport riders.

Yamaha MORO 07: Ride without limits
Developed with 30 years of experience in the design and manufacture of innovative eBikes, MORO 07 is Yamaha’s premium eMTB. Inspired by Yamaha’s Grand Prix-winning motocross machines, its unique Dual Twin frame cages the battery and shock – and the high-specification RockShox suspension provides confident and responsive handling on all types of terrain. Offering the best torque-to-weight ratio, the compact PW-X3 drive unit and lightweight aluminium chassis ensure smooth and powerful performance on the most challenging mountain single track.
PW-X3 drive unit for instant power
Developing 85 Nm and weighing just 2.75 kg, the new generation PW-X3 drive unit gives an outstanding torque-to-weight ratio and provides high power at a high cadence for strong performance on steep hills and in sandy or muddy terrain.
Yamaha’s Zero Cadence technology delivers instant power delivery at the slightest pedal input – and specially developed gears and freewheels give a lightweight and natural feeling when pedalling over 25 km/h.
Unique Dual Twin frame
The unique Dual Twin frame features dual top tubes and down tubes that are designed to give a finely tuned rigidity balance that delivers confident handling together with plenty of accurate surface feedback.
This innovative chassis has been holistically developed alongside the powerful and compact PW-X3 drive unit, enabling Yamaha’s engineers to achieve idealised chassis dimensions with excellent ground clearance and a compact wheelbase.
Premium equipment
The Yamaha PW-X3 drive unit’s small physical size has also enabled the design of an innovative new 150 mm travel rear suspension system with RockShox Super Deluxe Select + mounted between the twin top tubes. RockShox LYRIK SELECT Charger forks offer 160mm travel for sure-footed front suspension action, and Maxxis 27.5 x 2.6-inch tyres give the traction and flex needed for effective riding together with a high degree of surface feel. Magura MT5 brakes deliver power with feel, and the premium Shimano XT 1 x 12 gearset ensures smooth shifting and effective drive.
Interface X with Smartphone connectivity
The Yamaha Interface X enables smartphone connectivity and gives a tidy handlebar area. Its minimalist design with ergonomic mode assist buttons and colour-coded assist mode indicator enable the MORO 07 rider to concentrate fully on the terrain ahead.
New colour Factory Silver
Moro 07 is offered in three sizes and is available in the new limited edition Factory Silver colour.
Dual twin frame
MORO 07 has been developed using advanced chassis technology inspired by Yamaha’s race-winning motorcycles. Featuring twin top tubes and twin down tubes, the unique dual twin frame gives an idealised balance of flex and rigidity for confident handling together with accurate surface feedback.
Best-in-class PW-X3 drive unit
Producing 85Nm of torque, Yamaha’s latest PW-X3 is the company’s lightest, smallest and most powerful drive unit. Its compact dimensions give a narrow Q factor together with excellent ground clearance for superior off-road performance. Zero Cadence technology provides instant assistance and its Automatic Support Mode provides extra power on hills and into headwinds.
RockShox Lyrik Select
MORO 07’s premium specification features RockShox Lyrik Select Charger fork giving 160mm of front wheel travel. Developed to handle everything from challenging single track through to fast downhills, this front end gives this new Yamaha eMTB serious off road capability for fun without limits.
RockShox Super Deluxe Select+ rear shock
The RockShox Super Deluxe Select+ rear shock provides 150mm of plush rear wheel movement for a smooth ride with excellent rear wheel traction. Mounted between the twin top tube, this premium shock contributes towards the MORO 07’s fun character and all-terrain ability.
Magura MT5 brakes
Equipped with a radially mounted master cylinder that provides accurate feel, the Magura MT5 brake features a powerful one-piece four-piston caliper that gives strong braking performance.
500Wh compact integrated battery
The 500Wh compact integrated battery is fully integrated into the dual twin chassis to achieve optimum mass centralisation for agile handling. Developed with 30 years of experience, the Yamaha battery is built to provide hours of consistent rides and a reliable life cycle.
Shimano XT 1×12 drivetrain
Shimano has unrivalled experience in the MTB world, and the MORO 07’s XT 1×12 drivetrain is perfectly matched with the PW-X3 drive unit to give you the ability to perform well in various different situations, confident in the knowledge that the system’s quality and durability is amongst the best in class.
Interface X display
Interface X is Yamaha’s minimalist and simple LED communication unit that is the perfect match for the MORO 07. Mounted centrally to the bike’s handle bar, it gives a clean and tidy cockpit area and features clearly marked battery and assist indicators. Featuring Bluetooth® Low Energy Technology for easy smartphone connectivity and ANT+™ technology for cycle computer compatibility.
