R1 – the R stands for Race

Yamaha R1 2015 R1M YZF R1 R1M 31[sam id=2 codes=true]First of all, the R1 is designed for the racetrack . You can see it already on the new look. There is no evolution of the old ones, no, it is inspired by a racing fairing.

Yamaha R1 2015 R1M YZF R1 R1M 8Actually, this is only logical. The headlight technology is progressing and the parts just keep getting smaller. When they were now well hidden. That’s a bit strange, because the “face” of the R1 now missing. Although the two LED status lights (now called position lights) remind a bit of the old headlight, but the actual bulbs including fall fully out of character.

Yamaha R1 2015 R1M YZF R1 R1M 7In the blue-silver model you can see the connection to the track very well. I really find the “silver plate” not pretty, but it is a perfect place to bring his race number (only should not be too long). I personally would but definitely choose a different decor or make the cockpit quite blue. But tastes differ, but I would take the red if anyone wants to make me a joy. smiley emoticons bravo2

In the social networks is also discussed already strongly about the new look. Some love it and some hate it. smiley emoticons aufsmaul

the data

Yamaha R1 2015 R1M YZF R1 R1M 27147 kW (200PS), more compact inline four-cylinder with four-valve technology tackling a strong, in the unfolding almost linear, torque on the crossplane crankshaft. Subframe and wheels are made of magnesium, to achieve a dry weight of 179 kg and a driving finished weight of 199 kg. With a full tank … smiley emoticons shocked

Yamaha R1 2015 R1M YZF R1 R1M 4Of assistance systems it is also no shortage of the new R1. Here the Moto GP will benefit from the rich experiences. It is the sensor unit IMU (6-axis inertial measurement unit) are used, which fulfills the requirement for 3D control interventions. Traction control with tilt detection, a patented Slide Control system, a control system for a growing Front (LIF), a launch control system, a shift assistant, an ABS and a combined braking system, to name but a few also be used.

Yamaha R1 2015 R1M YZF R1 R1M 20

ABS knows everyone, but additionally the R1 has a combined system on board. Here at apply the front brake, the rear brake is easily controlled with. By pressing both brakes providing for the necessary balance. For this data the tilt and skew angles are taken here. If only the rear brake using the system but does not intervene, then it also slows down the rear only. So again you realize the racing genes.

[sam id=”21″ codes=”true”]Comes the R1 with lightweight magnesium wheels. In comparison to cast wheels saves here a 870 g. 530 g forward. 340 g rear. That is about 4% less rotating mass in front and 11% rear, which enhances handling.

The tank is made of aluminum and holds 17 liters. Weight saving compared to a steel tank is 1.6 kg.

Yamaha R1 2015 R1M YZF R1 R1M 21

The R1 gets a 109 mm wide TFT display, the liquid crystal display allows hardly any light reflections. A light sensor provides automatic brightness adjustment. You can switch from road use to track what effect on the color and design of the ads has. So what is displayed and how big…

The colors of the YZF-R1 2015:

Race Blu (DPBMC / MS1)
Racing Red (VRC1 / BWC1)
Available from March 2015

The price I know not yet.

the engine

Newly developed crossplane engine with 147 kW (200 hp) and M1
Technology.

Yamaha R1 2015 R1M YZF R1 R1M 14

In the series four-cylinder engine with 998 cc displacement redesigned crossplane crankshaft is used. Your sophisticated firing interval makes a significant contribution to the linear torque development, which gives the driver the impression that the throttle had a direct influence on the rotational speed of the rear wheel.

[sam id=2 codes=true]The crossplane concept comes directly from the Moto-Gp and the debut of Valentino Rossi won the World Cup at first attempt. It is now in the new R1. There is an uneven firing order with a
Crankshaft rotational angle interval of 270 ° – 180 ° – 90 ° – 180 °

Yamaha R1 2015 R1M YZF R1 R1M 6This creates a stronger pulsation in the lower and medium engine speed range, resulting in a more linear torque development results. The crossplane engine is also apparent in the distinctive exhaust sound.

Yamaha R1 2015 R1M YZF R1 R1M 15The new 147 kW (200 hp) engine has nothing in common with its predecessor. The main differences of the engines include: The bore – / stroke ratio, the compression ratio, the cylinder, the cylinder head, the fuel injection system and even the crankshaft. The only thing that remains is the model name. In order to improve the acceleration, the flywheel mass was reduced by approximately 20%, even though the crankshaft drives a balancer shaft, whose weights are placed close to the outer cylinders.

Yamaha R1 2015 R1M YZF R1 R1M 16Thus, a large amount of fuel-air mixture can quickly flow into the cylinder, the cylinder head is the R1 provided from 2015 with optimized flow channels and large intake and exhaust valves, which have a plate diameter of 33 and 26.5 mm. The compression ratio is 13.0: 1, which is also due to the narrower valve angle enables a more compact combustion chamber shape.

Yamaha R1 2015 R1M YZF R1 R1M 30To achieve high performance, the engine with extremely light rod made of a special titanium alloy is fitted, which are initially manufactured in one piece and in comparison with steel connecting rods are around 40 percent lighter. Then, the connecting rods are broken in the foot, resulting in a larger contact area between the connecting rod and connecting rod cap is formed. The result: The connecting rods are extremely stable, but at the same time easily and thus improve the response and revving the engine

Yamaha R1 2015 R1M YZF R1 R1M 10

The newly developed forged pistons are very sturdy and very easy thanks to the `Bridge-box ‘design on the bottom. For an additional piston cooling from the underside provide new oil nozzle, spray the engine oil in the direction of the piston crown.

For the first time in a R1 takes place the valve actuation via rocker arms. This technique has two distinct advantages: First, the valve lift is due to leverage on the value that specifies the camshaft. Secondly, the drag lever to run with less friction on the camshaft. Especially since the new cam followers as the piston pin DLC hard coated
(Diamond-Like Carbon) and are extremely fixed rotational speed.

Yamaha R1 2015 R1M YZF R1 R1M 3To support the cylinder filling at each cycle effectively, to use an air filter with a handsome 10.5 liters. The intake system is thus 23 percent more voluminous than before and allows greater air transfer to the velocity stacks, the (Yamaha Chip Controlled Intake) YCC-I work with the system. The system operates electronically controlled with short and long velocity stacks that allow engine speed and load dependent flow optimizations and thus contribute to the effective cylinder filling. This benefits both the torque yield and peak performance.

Yamaha R1 2015 R1M YZF R1 R1M 17The new 10.5-liter air box is supplied via a centrally integrated in the casing inlet opening with fresh air. At high speeds, the air flows with significant pressure and can be used by the YCC-I system to improve performance. That should provide about 200 hp!?! There are even 200 hp without ram-air indicated, or how can I understand this? smiley emoticons confusednew

In short form:

The exhaust system

Lightweight 4-into-2-into-1 exhaust system made of titanium

Yamaha R1 2015 R1M YZF R1 R1M 23Under the engine the four titanium exhaust pipes converge into two pipes, before they lead to a 5.2-liter silencer. Then it goes on about a new exhaust valve in the muffler, which is placed centrally under the motorcycle. At low and medium speeds, the exhaust gases flow through one of the two passages. Only at high speed opens the actuated by a servo motor exhaust flap between pre- and muffler and gives way on both pipes free.

Slipper clutch

Yamaha R1 2015 R1M YZF R1 R1M 11

The new clutch has fallen 19 percent lighter and more compact. The diameter was reduced by seven per cent compared to its predecessor. What makes a slipper clutch?

When hard downshift she opens the clutch up to 50 percent to prevent a momentary blocking of the rear wheel.

The chassis and the brakes

Yamaha R1 2015 R1M YZF R1 R1M 25

The R1 has a new asymmetric Deltabox aluminum frame that contributes significantly to precise and nimble handling. The compact aluminum frame is made of welded-together castings and offers the ideal combination of rigidity and flexibility. The crossplane engine sits – at four points rigidly fixed – as a stressed member in the frame. Two motor mounts are located on cylinder head, two sitting on the crankcase. Back takes the Deltabox frame on a reinforced at the top of aluminum swingarm, consisting of cast, forged and sheet form two components that form a light but very stable unit. An enormous weight reduction was by the use of a
Magnesium rear frame can be achieved.

Wheelbase 1,405 mm

Yamaha R1 2015 R1M YZF R1 R1M 22

The new wheelbase is 10 mm shorter, 570 mm long swingarm has lost as much as 15 mm. Steering head angle and fork bridge shots are identical in dimensions, while the front axle is increased by three to 25 mm.

The Upside-down telescopic fork with 43 mm stanchions strong allows 120 mm of travel and carries thanks to the 25 mm axle for steering precision.

The new swingarm with reinforcement overhead is supported via a lever system and a monoshock. The suspension is fully adjustable.

At the front, one-piece molded four-piston calipers, stainless steel reinforced brake lines and two 320 mm brake discs are used.

Driving assistance systems

Yamaha R1 2015 R1M YZF R1 R1M 29The R1 comes with a sensor cluster. This includes two accelerometers and angular rate sensors combined, the three-dimensional work and detect any movement of the longitudinal, vertical and transverse axis. Therefore, the sensor unit is called in English “6-axis inertial measurement unit”, short IMU. The data is sent directly to the ECU control unit. The sensor unit has been developed exclusively for the new R1 and included in the rate gyro pitch, roll and yaw motion while the acceleration sensor measures how fast the vehicle is moving in that direction. This measurement is carried out three-dimensionally. The data are collected and processed 125 times per second.

Yamaha R1 2015 R1M YZF R1 R1M 24The data provided by the sensor unit IMU uses the control unit of the engine-management in order to determine optimal injection amount, ignition timing and throttle opening angle and to find a steady running state. This radically new technology also help bring the latest MotoGP technology into series production is in the R1 but. This includes for example the Slide Control System (SCS), which when accelerating out of corners a controlled oversteer
allows (pull black lines is not a problem, as Rossi and Co). The traction control TCS relies on information from the sensor unit. In all, the inclination is considered and adjusted accordingly, the engagement in the systems.
