The Yamaha motorcycles2015

Yamaha strikes hard and well for 2015. Long-awaited, the new R1 comes with 200 hp, lots of electronics and a design very much inspired by MotoGP's M1. An Öhlins-equipped M version will be available in limited quantities. A new small sports bike has been added to the range, the R3. The replacement for the TDM has finally arrived: the MT-09 Tracer, developed from the eponymous roadster. The MT-07 is joined by a Moto Cage version for stunt riding and fun. As for the classics, the XJR 1300 is revamped with a touch of preparation, as is an old-fashioned sporty version, the Racer.
