YZF-R1 - All new Yamaha YZF-R1. We R1

Developed without compromise using YZR-M1 MotoGP technology, the R1 was born for the track. 200PS, 199kg and 1,405mm wheelbase give an insight into its capabilities. But it's what you can't see that makes this focused superbike so special.

Its central nervous system is a 6-axis Inertial Measurement Unit that constantly senses chassis motion in 3D, creating controllability over traction, slides, front wheel lift, braking and launches.

Producing 200PS, the R1's new 998cc inline 4-cylinder, 4-valve engine is one of the most powerful in a bike. And with its M1-derived crossplane technology, this next generation superbike pushes out strong linear torque with outstanding traction.

The short wheelbase Deltabox chassis features a magnesium rear frame and long swingarm for outstanding handling on the track. Race developed suspension and magnesium wheels show that this bike is a serious contender to be the numero uno.

But what really takes the cake is the R1's high tech electronic control technology. By offering precise control, every rider has the chance to reveal their true potential.

YZF R15s - With Unibody Seat

The YZF-R15s with unibody seat , designed to provide more convenience to rider and pillion both. Equipped with 150cc liquid cooled, 4 stroke SOHC, 4 Valve engine, front and rear disc brakes along with a fuel capacity of 12 litres, 5 spoke alloy wheel and sporty graphics.

YAMAHA's Humachine Technology aims to provide a superior riding experience for both rider and pillion. To create this, a Unibody seat has been adopted. This is ergonomically designed to give optimal support to rider and pillion, at all speeds, over longer duration rides as well.

Yamaha R series bikes are equipped with under cowls that are based on the image of a diffuser, to give them the best form for aero-management. These are not cowls for simply enclosing the engine, but forms composed of blade surfaces that actively control airflow. This spirit has been directly inherited by the YZF-R15s.
