As has been the case over the past few years, Yamaha’s latest YZF-R1 repli-racer is bristling with electronics, from its chip-controlled variable intake funnels and “fly-by-wire” throttle system to its variable-map power delivery system that tailors engine output at the touch of a button. But the big news this year is that the engines “crossplane” crankshaft that provides a staggered firing order for the four cylinders, resulting in uneven power pulses that enhance rear-wheel traction during hard acceleration. The aluminum chassis is new and now features a magnesium rear subframe. The fork and shock have been updated, and an electronic steering damper is standard equipment this year.
