Yamaha R1 2025 Edition Launched Specs And Prices Revealed- Comparison With Kawasaki ZX10R News24 –

Its only evident that stricter emission norms have been a chokehold on enthusiast vehicle manufacturing, but a certain class of manufacturers always strive to provide the enthusiasts with superior sports bikes. As of now we have bikes such as Ducati Panigale V4, BMW S1000 RR and the Aprilia RSV4 for enthusiasts who seek a litre class vehicle, but one that stands apart from any one of them would be the Yamaha R1 ever since the launch of the moniker it has become a synonym for peak performance and a track focused excellence turned slightly docile for the roads. 

Over the years Yamaha has been able to instill the bike with some of the most innovative technological and mechanical additions that have further added to the performance of the bike. 

The Cross Plane Crank 

 Every Enthusiast should be made aware of the innovations that Yamaha was able to instill in the 2009 YZFR1. The fanatics at Yamaha sought to eliminate the inertial torque. Inertial torque often occurs when an engine does not spin at a constant speed over the course of a single revolution, rather it goes through minor speed alterations all through the duration of a single revolution.  So Yamaha planned to balance the primary and secondary sources of the engines so that the crankshaft is inherently balanced and turns at a more steady speed in each revolution. To ensure that the engines do not suffer from such challenges and provide the user with an optimum smooth performance Yamaha gave their bike a Cross plane Crankshaft. Beyond these the brand has been able to further innovate and bring in technological advances to all their bikes that are currently on sale. 

New R15 Changes 

The new version of the bike that would soon go on sale and it would be fair to state that its not bereft of such innovations as well, the hardware changes that the bike goes through include an adjustable KYB suspension at the front as well as the rear along with Brembo Monobloc brake calipers for better stopping power. The R1m variant would see no change apart from the addition of new Carbon Fibre Winglets. 

The engine remains the same for the bike; it’s a 998 Cc Liquid Cooled Four Cylinder Engine that makes 200 Hp and a 113 Nm of torque, mated to a six speed gearbox this combination is enough to get you talking to the wind.
