Getting on two wheels to help break free


In this day and age of crazy fuel prices and increasing congestion, more and more people are looking at getting on two wheels to help them break free.
One if those who is taking to motorcycling is TV presenter Dominic Littlewood. Living in South West London, Dominic has sold his gas guzzling Chevy SSR and Plymouth Prowler to get back onto 2 wheels.

He grew up on Yamaha machinery, owning a TY50, FS1E and YZ250 just to name a few. Passing his test back in April, he has just taken charge of a Yamaha MT-03. With a punchy 660cc four-stroke engine, this middle-weight Yamaha is the perfect tool for getting around town economically and when the moment takes you, to get out on the open road for a fun blast. The quirky low riding position with such a powerful street presence, really appealed to Dominic's taste for not following the norm.

He was quick to point out his desire to have another Yamaha 'I am a bit of a petrol head but I can't justify 4 wheels any more. The MT-03 is the perfect bike for me as it's nimble and punchy and it's got a low seat height - plus it's got gallons of style!

Personally, I am getting more and more concerned about my carbon footprint so riding bikes is one of the ways I can put something back. In return, I get to travel more efficiently and give less cash to The Man in fuel costs.

I am really looking forward to helping promote the benefits of motorcycling and getting out and about over the summer.'
