Can't wait to see it in person

 

At least you guys there are getting it. In Europe, we can only get the race only GYTR version.

 

At least Yamaha finally put decent brakes on the base R1, after years of lagging behind the competition.

 

People will still upgrade them since they are the lowest quality model Brembos.

 

Stylema are no longer their top of the line, but they're far from the lowest.

 

Brembo Stylemas on the CF Moto CL-X 700 sport too so...Good or Bad?

 

I’ve ridden the stylema on the Ducs and they are superb!
‘It’s about time Yammie!

i've heard the opposite from some factory RSV4 riders on similar calipers..
so there's always pros n' cons, i'm sure some will buy the new Yammi
versions, used.. and thats perfectly fine lol

If it doesn’t have at least 15 more ponies…. Meh

unless they increase cubic capacity, i dont see where this would come from.

mechanically speaking that is.. you're comparing a 20k bike to a 35k or 40k motorcycle

but (as posted elsewhere) you can do a simple head-valve job n' slap on a

proper set of cam-shafts for a good (plus) 20 ish hp... (213-215bhp) not too shabby

what i mean is, while I understand there are restrictions to certain classes
but (since a lot of us dont have access), these are still road bikes, sold to be
ridden on the road/track.. But we've known for years, these bikes (yamaha in
particular) do respond rather well to 'essential mods'.. Dano's performance
prices the above at about $3500 bucks, plus labor..

I dont think that is unreasonable. I could be wrong, but

as far as i'm concerned, thats plenty of HP for your avg road/track junkie..

among mere mortals of course

There will be engine updates in the years to come. Yamaha has until 2027 with the current homogolation system in Europe. If the outside markets continue to buy the r1, we will definitely have a new motor and the maybe the US will spearhead any homogolation after 2027. But it is confirmed that the r1 will continue to see development.

 

I've only got the older M50 Brembo's on my Multistrada and even those are night and day beyond anything I've ever had on a Yamaha.

 

My Duc SF had M50’s and yes they worked well

 

I thought the 2024 was the last year Yamaha made an American model. I guess not! It's a sweet looking ride. I have a 2024.

 

That a problem for Europeans and Californians to worry about. I know Texas don’t give af about euro regs.

 

Yeah I'm sure Yamaha will make a bike specifically for the Texas market
