2008 Yamaha YZF-R1, 2007 Yamaha YZF-R1 <strong>Key Features May Include</strong><li> Light, powerful and packed with trickle-down MotoGP technology, the YZF-R1 is the most advanced Open-class production motorcycle ever built.</li><li>The YZF-R1 uses the YCC-T fly-by-wire throttle system for flawless response under all conditions.</li><li> Inline four-cylinder engine is the most powerful, tractable R1 powerplant ever, thanks partially to the world’s first electronic variable- length intake funnel system.</li><li>Slipper-type back torque-limiting clutch greatly facilitates braking/downshifting from high speed.</li><li> Aluminum Deltabox frame and swingarm take Open-class handling to the next performance level.</li><li>Six-piston radial-mount front brake calipers and 310mm discs generate the kind of braking power a bike like the R1 requires.</li><strong>Features & Benefits</strong><p><strong>Engine</strong></p><li>Short-stroke 998cc DOHC, 16-valve, liquid-cooled inline four-cylinder engine produces more tractable power than ever.</li><li>Yamaha Chip Control Throttle controls a 32-bit ECU fuel injection system for super-responsive, smooth, instantaneous power delivery.</li><li>Yamaha Chip Control Intake electronically adjusts intake funnel length between either 65 or 140mm for an amazingly broad, smooth powerband.</li><li>Two-piece ergonomically designed fuel tank carries fuel in the rear section, for good centralization of mass, while the front half contains a Ram-Air-fed airbox for increased power.</li><li>Lay-down-design cylinder head optimizes weight distribution, straightens intake tracts for improved cylinder filling and allows frame to pass over instead of around the engine for great strength and a narrow chassis.</li><li>Closed-deck cylinder block increases strength and allows a narrow engine in spite of big, 77mm bores.</li><li>Narrow-angle four-valve combustion chambers produce a highly efficient 12.7:1 compression ratio; 31mm titanium intake valves and 25mm exhausts controlled by new, high-lift cams flow plenty of air.</li><li>Light and strong nutless connecting rods with fractured big ends produce a quick-revving engine with excellent high-rpm durability.</li><li>High silicon-content ceramic-composite cylinder sleeves ensure great heat dissipation for consistent power delivery and reduced friction.</li><li>Close-ratio six-speed gearbox with triangulated shaft layout for great strength, compactness, and quicker acceleration.</li><li>Ramp-type slipper clutch makes braking from speed into tight corners while downshifting smoother and therefore faster.</li><li>Titanium underseat exhaust system (with stainless steel midpipe and catalyst) provides excellent cornering clearance and a broad, seamless powerband.</li><li>13-percent greater radiator capacity and an aluminum liquid-cooled oil cooler maintain stable operating temperature.</li><li>Direct ignition coils, dual-electrode spark plugs and high-output magneto deliver extremely
