YAMAHAYZF-R1 LE US Edition 2009 - 2010

　　The Yamaha YZF-R1, also known as the R1, was a sports bike manufactured by Yamaha in 1998, replacing the Yamaha YZF1000R, and continued production until the present (2023). The bike underwent several significant modifications over its production period.

　　In 2009, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Yamaha YZF-R1 LE US Edition, a hot limited-edition motorcycle with a livery inspired by Valentino Rossi's MotoGP winning bike.

　　The bike's color scheme retained the classic white and blue design, complemented by the Fiat logo and 46 racing number in a neon yellow for a more authentic look. In other departments, the bike packed the exact specifications as the 2009 base model.

　　The bike was built around an aluminum frame with a 43 mm fully adjustable inverted telescopic fork on the front, offering 120 mm of travel, and a fully adjustable shock absorber on the rear with 120 mm of travel, delivering excellent suspension performance and handling.

　　The braking performance was achieved by two 310 mm discs coupled to six-piston calipers on the front wheel and a 220 mm disc with a single-piston caliper on the rear wheel, providing excellent stopping power.

　　The 2009 Kawasaki YZF-R1 LE US Edition had installed a 998cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine underneath its fuel tank, delivering an output power of 182 hp at 12,500 rpm and 115 Nm (85 lb-ft) torque at 10,000 rpm.
