The Tokyo Motor Show is an opportunity for the big four motorcycle manufacturers (due to the economic situation, Kawasaki isn’t going to be present this year) to show off their new models and for us to see what they’re up to with ideas for the future of two wheel transportation.
Besides the Gladius 400 ABS Suzuki will also be exhibiting the Burgman Fuel Cell Scooter, step further from their hydrogen prototype Crosscage that they revealed in the 2007 show.
The fuel cell is air-cooled and concomitantly light, compact, and structurally simple.
A 70MPa hydrogen tank (the highest-pressure tank used on a bike thus far) allows a usable riding range.
And the tank is mounted within a robust frame for safety.
After the jump check out the Crosscage from 2007.
