YZF-R1 is a lot like its track brother YZR-M1. With pure MotoGP blood, a crossplane engine, short wheelbase chassis and high-tech electronics, the YZF-R1 is ready to take your riding experience to a whole new level.Developed on the same racing DNA as its elder brother, YZF-R1 doesn’t shy away from flaunting its massive power of 200 hp, perfect weight of 200 kg and a 1405 mm wheelbase. But it’s what you can’t see that makes it all the more special.
The Inertial Measurement Unit constantly senses chassis motion in 3D, creating controllability over traction, slides, front wheel lift, braking and launches. Moreover, its updated Quick Shift System (QSS) offers clutch-free downshifting as well as upshifting.
The R1’s Lift Control System (LCS) is updated with more progressive mapping that improves forward drive when the system intervenes. The compact chassis features a magnesium rear frame, long swingarm and track developed racing ABS for outstanding handling. What’s more, the suspension and magnesium wheels are designed to race and undoubtedly make this bike a serious contender. It’s not a machine. It’s your opportunity to discover your true potential.
