The Yamaha YZF-R1, also known as simply R1 was a sports bike manufactured by Yamaha from 1998, when it replaced the Yamaha YZF1000R until the present (2023). The bike debuted in 1998 and underwent significant modifications over its production time.
In 2005, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Yamaha YZF1000 R1 MotoGP Replica, a sports machine replica of the actual bike that rode in the MotoGP race. It was part of the third generation and featured a new engine with excellent performance.
In the visual department, the motorcycle had standard features, such as a full fairing with a dual headlight system, a small windscreen, a single seat with lumbar support, an under-seat-mounted dual exhaust system, and lightweight wheels.
The bike was manufactured around a Deltabox V aluminum twin-spar frame with a 47 mm fully adjustable Kayaba inverted telescopic fork on the front, offering 120 mm of travel, and an adjustable shock absorber on the rear with 130 mm of travel, providing excellent suspension performance and handling.
The braking performance was achieved by two 320 mm discs tied to four-piston calipers on the front wheel and a 220 mm disc coupled to a four-piston caliper on the rear wheel, offering excellent stopping power.
As for power, the 2005 Yamaha YZF1000 R1 MotoGP Replica had installed a998cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine underneath its fuel tank, delivering an output power of 170 hp at 12,500 rpm and 104 Nm (77 lb-ft) torque at 10,500 rpm.
