Key Features

MOTOGP®-INSPIRED WINGLETS: Developed through extensive simulator and on-track testing, MotoGP®-inspired carbon fiber winglets create additional downforce for exceptional chassis stability and added front-end feel when braking or cornering.
ICONIC 70TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION STYLING: Celebrate seven decades of motorsports excellence with the 2026 YZF-R1 70th Anniversary Edition. Throwback white and red speed block livery, gold Yamaha Tuning Fork emblems, and Anniversary Edition badge combine with the R1's sleek, modern R-Series design to commemorate the 1955 birth of Yamaha Motor Company in standout style.
PREMIUM BREMBO® BRAKES: Premium Brembo® Stylema monobloc front brake calipers are paired with a Brembo® master cylinder to offer outstanding braking power and exceptional feel.
