The YZF-R1 was chosen for its MotoGP®- inspired engine and chassis technology, and for its luxurious fit and finish. Back for 2011, the YZF-R1 is the only production motorcycle with a crossplane crankshaft. Crossplane technology, first pioneered in MotoGP® racing with the M1, puts each piston 90° from the next, with an uneven firing interval of 270°- 180°- 90°- 180°. This uneven order does an amazing thing… it actually lets power build more smoothly. That means smooth roll-on delivery out of the corners, with outstanding tractability, followed by very strong high rpm power. This breakthrough technology on the YZF-R1 represents a paradigm shift in both technology and performance. This R1 keeps all the technological superiorities developed for its predecessor: YCC-TTM (Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle) is MotoGP® inspired fly-by-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 response. The R1 features Yamaha D-MODE (or drive mode) with rider- selectable throttle control maps to program YCC-T performance characteristics for riding conditions. The standard map is designed for optimum overall performance. Switching maps is as easy as pushing a button on the handlebar switch. In keeping with this machine's exceptional cornering ability and crisp handling, the aluminum frame has been designed to offer exceptional rigidity balance. The rear frame is lightweight Controlled- Fill die-cast magnesium, contributing the optimum mass centralization. The left fork handles compression damping and the right side handles the rebound damping. And the rear shock adopts bottom linkage for optimum suspension characteristics. The bodywork does more than add break-away-from-the-crowd styling with its more serious, less busy look. The side fairing is smooth for a sleek appearance. This positions ram air ducts closer in for a more compact, smooth look. In addition, the rounded lenses are unique to the supersport industry. Features & BenefitsEngineCrossplane crankshaft technology proven in victory after victoryon MotoGP® machines provides a high-tech uneven firing interval. This overcomesthe inherent fluctuations in inertial torque during each enginerevolution, and the accompanying peaky torque characteristics. Instead, combustion torque continues to build, giving the ridermore linear throttle response with awesome power and tractionout of the corners. To maximize rider comfort as well as power output, the engineadopts a coupling-type balancer that rotates in the oppositedirection as the crankshaft.
