- The R1 is the culmination of 50 years of racing
experience, combining tremendous power with light weight and excellent
handling.
- Newly retuned Deltabox V® frame, revised forks and
a 20mm longer swingarm take R1 handling to the next level.
- 50th Anniversary Special Edition model celebrates
Yamaha racing heritage with special badging and classic black and yellow
livery.
|
- GP tech trickles down: Revised rigidity of the
main frame between the engine mounts and steering head, a new, more rigid
lower triple clamp, a 20mm-longer swingarm produce the best-handling R1
ever.
- Shorter valve guides and other revisions increase
intake flow and reduce friction, for more power.
- Gold-colored forks look great.
- Revised clutch boss provides increased oil flow
for excellent durability.
|
- Short-stroke 998cc DOHC, 20-valve, liquid-cooled
inline four-cylinder engine.
- Dual-valve fuel injection system uses motor-driven
secondary throttle valves and 32-bit ECU for super-responsive,
instantaneous power delivery.
- Two-piece ergonomically designed fuel tank carries
fuel in the rear section, for good centralization of mass, while the front
half contains a Ram-Air-fed airbox for increased power.
- Lay-down design cylinder head—40 degrees forward—
optimizes weight distribution, straightens intake tracts for improved
cylinder filling, and allows frame to pass over instead of around the
engine for great strength and a narrow chassis.
- Closed-deck cylinder block increases strength and
allows a narrow engine in spite of big, 77mm bores.
- Narrow-angle five-valve combustion chambers
produce a highly efficient 12.4:1 compression ratio. Big valves and
high-lift cams flow plenty of air.
- Carburized connecting rods with fractured big ends
produce a quick-revving engine with excellent high-rpm durability.
- High silicon-content ceramic-composite cylinder
sleeves ensure great heat dissipation for consistent power delivery and
reduced friction.
- Strong, yet lightweight clutch and close-ratio
six-speed gearbox with triangulated shaft layout for great strength,
compactness, and quicker acceleration.
- Titanium underseat exhaust system (with stainless
steel midpipe and catalyst) contains a titanium EXUP valve for a broad,
seamless powerband.
- High-efficiency curved radiator and an aluminum
liquidcooled oil cooler maintain stable operating temperature.
- Direct ignition coils, dual-electrode spark plugs
and highoutput magneto deliver extremely accurate, reliable firing.
- AC generator behind cylinder block produces a
narrow engine with excellent cornering clearance.
|
- Overall frame width of only 15.6 inches produces
comfortable ergonomics as well as efficient aerodynamic penetration.
- Controlled Fill die cast, truss-type swingarm is
very strong and longer, for optimal traction and feedback.
- Controlled Fill die cast, detachable aluminum
subframe is light, strong and allows easy rear shock access.
- Dual 320mm front disc brakes; light/strong, forged
one-piece radial-mount calipers and Brembo radial-pump front master
cylinder with adjustable lever delivers amazing braking power and
controllability.
- Fully adjustable KYB inverted telescopic front
fork with 43mm tubes provides 4.7 inches of travel.
- Piggyback rear shock gives 5.1 inches of wheel
travel, full adjustability and a lightweight, accessible aluminum preload
adjustment collar.
- Light, five-spoke wheels enhance acceleration,
deceleration, handling and suspension action.
|
- Two multi-reflector and two projector beam
headlights provide great illumination and distinctive style.
- Adjustable LCD illumination and multi-function
digital gauges: adjustable shift light, odometer, dual tripmeters, water
temperature, air temperature, full-time clock, lap timer and large 15,000
rpm analog tachometer.
- Aggressive bodywork with twin Ram-Air intakes for
increased engine performance.
- LED taillight is light, bright and highly
efficient.
- Sticky 120/70-ZR17 and 190/50-ZR17 radial tires
for incredible grip and precise handling.
- Forged footpegs are extra durable and light.
- Extensive use of hollow bolts and lightweight
fasteners helps trim overall weight.
- 8.2 AH battery is compact and light.
- Durable #530 O-ring–sealed drive chain.
- Standard toolkit located in convenient storage
compartment under passenger seat.
