Pretty cool video. Isn't it interesting that the real thing doesn't have the exhaust under the seat? So much for improved "aero" Perhaps he doesn't want a hot A$$.

And how long have you been an R1 fan?

 

[RUFFSTUFF]

R1.... M1.... minor differences...

 

[Tron]

yes very very very minor!

might go down to the local Yamaha Dealer & pic me up a GP Spec 04R1.



LOL

The RCV211 is hands down the best bike in Moto GP and it's exhaust is under the seat as well, so what is your point?

 

[aronhalt]

Doop! I guess I can't read well. I could have swore that it said R1. I didn't look that close. Watched it once and only noticed that the exhaust was in the wrong place, and it said Yamaha.

Either way, my comment still stands...why no exhaust under seat?

 

[R1_abuser]

My be a repost but the is the first time for me. Thanks

 

[E.Rob]

this a yamaha M1 gp race bike not a R1.

 

[Tron]

but still a good post.....vid was good....

Other than the previously stated fact that the R1 and M1 are 2 totally different bikes.... why should it have an underseat exhaust? Because the R1 does?

Have you noticed that most MotoGP bikes don't even have exhaust cannisters...? They are just open pipes....

at 240HP, aero drag is of little consequence.

this is the same reason honda was happy to forego the most aero version of the 211v in lieu of increased lateral aerodynamic stability for better mid-corner grip.

there are way too many factors to consider which might explain why the rc211v has an underseat exhaust and the M1 doesn't. honda's prolink suspension is likely one of them. think about shock placement.
