2014 Yamaha YZF-R1, 2014 Yamaha YZF-R1 Key Features

1 - The YZF-R1 benefits from MotoGP technology - a seven-level Traction Control system. The system has been developed so the rider does not feel any unnatural or harsh intervention from the system. In addition, traction control can aid in reducing tire
wear due to less wheel spin. Coupled with the three level D-Mode electronic throttle response control, riders have 21 different choices available to tailor the YZF-R1 to their riding preference.
2 - This R1 keeps all the technological superiorities developed for its predecessor: YCC-T (Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle) is a MotoGP inspired flyby- wire technology used to deliver instant throttle response. YCC-I is Yamaha Chip Controlled Intake
which is a variable intake system that broadens the spread of power. The fuel injection system provides optimum air/fuel mixtures for maximum power and smooth throttle repsonse.
3 - In keeping with this machines exceptional cornering ability and crisp handling, the aluminum frame has been designed to offer exceptional rigidity balance.The rear frame is lightweigt Controlled-Fill die-cast magnesium, contributing the optimum mass centralization. Suspension includes YHSJ (Yamaha Hydraluic System Japan) front forks which use one of the tricks developed for our winning MotoGP bikes: independent damping. The left fork handles compression damping and the right side handles
rebound damping. And the rear shock adopts bottom linkage for optimum suspension characteristics.
4 - The sound on the YZF-R1 is unlike any other inlinefour cylinder production supersport. The precise and throaty pulse of the exhaust note will have riders enthused every time the thottle is opened.
