This is what a racer’s workplace looks like. The ignition lock flew out, a lap timer with a shift light was installed and the fork insides were replaced by a closed cartridge.

Without the dB killer in the Arrow megaphone, the motorcycle has 200 hp on the bike – with absorber it is eight less.

Only original is legal, so the air intake and Ram-Air are standard parts.

Originally the Yamaha YZF-R1M has a light magnesium rear frame, which has been replaced by a slightly heavier, more robust and more repair-friendly aluminum part from CNC Saller.

The technical changes to the IDM machine are limited because the Superstock regulations do not allow radical interventions.

Daniel cured the throttle response, which was tough at the beginning, with just a few clicks by enriching various maps.

A few laps with the Rauh-R1M

Content of

Mathieu Gines won the IDM title with the Rauh-R1M this season. We chatted with the team boss a few races before winning the title and did a few laps with the Yamaha YZF-R1M from the IDM Superstock.

Here is the spontaneous explanation of the success: First, Kapo Daniel Rauh knows his craft very well. Second, his driver Mathieu Gines would much rather be at the top of the podium than at the bottom of the pedestal. And third, supplies YWith the new Yamaha YZF-R1M, amaha already has a race bike in advance that has the predicate “hungry for victory” emblazoned on its forehead.

A few laps with the Rauh-R1M

Nothing works without the laptop!

So on this Whitsun weekend we stand in a box at the Nurburgring and talk about the beginning of the season, the bike and the difficulties that the team has already faced. Daniel wanted a driver for the endeavor who would be able to get involved right from the start. At this point in time, “Mat” had already won the first races at the Lausitzring and in Zolder and was leading the overall standings. “Actually, I expected that we would not be competitive until the middle of the season”, Rauh sums up with satisfaction until then. Little does the team suspect that things would continue to run just as well.

Mathieu is driving a guest start in the Superstock 1000 Cup over on the island in Donington today, also on a Yamaha YZF-R1. Good for the pilot’s wealth of experience. Good for us. Because we are allowed to swing a leg over his motorcycle in his absence. It takes two laps, then we see the red flag and go back to the pits. A couple of R6 Cupers are holding High Noon outside on the slopes. In the short time, only the extremely high seating position and the top-heavy balance of the machine are noticeable on the Yamaha YZF-R1M. In addition, the throttle response is pretty bad. Daniel grabs the laptop and tries to intervene to cure by enriching two maps. Nothing works without the laptop!

Correct coordination of the electronics takes a long time

The correct coordination of the electronics usually takes a lot of time. In addition, Rauh reports that assembling the bike would have cost him a nerve or two by then, as many kit parts, for example, were not available at the beginning. Still, the new Yamaha YZF-R1M would be a damn good motorcycle out of the box. If you own such a device and are open to suggestions for improvement, he advises you to adjust the fork for more saturated damping. There is more torque by dismantling the flap in the intake tract, as well as installing a complete system and careful engine tuning.

The technical changes to the IDM machine are limited because the Superstock regulations do not allow radical interventions. The bike even has the original brake lever of the Yamaha YZF-R1M, because Mat gets along with it best. The engine is untouched and must stay that way. With regard to electronics, only branded kit parts are permitted, which can be a maximum of 1.5 times as expensive as the series part. “The chassis makes everything, because the motorcycle reacts extremely to the set-up,” explains Daniel.

ABS was thrown out for weight reasons

A closed cartridge from Ohlins is in the fork, while a TTX36 shock absorber does its job at the rear. The geometry of the machine is influenced by other springs and the damper oil. In addition to the Sebimoto fairing and the Arrow exhaust system, the modified braking system also catches the eye. Here, braking is carried out with six millimeter thick MG brake discs and dual sinter pads, the effect of which we can see for ourselves in the next turn. Incidentally, the ABS was thrown out for weight reasons – Mathieu prefers to drive without it anyway.

Now the throttle response works more smoothly and the R6 squadron does not report a nasty crash for the next 15 minutes. The Rauh-R1M is less surprising with absolute power, but the way it drives is incredible. Even the standard Yamaha YZF-R1M is not going around the corner sluggishly, but here we are in a different league. PS racer “Ecke” jokingly says after a few laps that a standard S 1000 RR would drive like a tractor. You push the IDM-Yamaha even more extreme over the front wheel than the production model, whereby the bike hits crazy lines at the corner entrance, turns brutally nimble and simply dives into any lean angle. The chassis stability in the curve is reminiscent of one of the earlier tubular space frame Ducatis, it is only better. Only when anchoring hard at the end of the straight is a rather light tail that is noticeable negatively. Apart from the well-functioning wheelie control, the electronics side does not report any sound. The traction control does not intervene once, which underlines the extremely good rideability of the bike. 

Will it still be enough for Mat to win? At the Nurburgring and in Hungary he struck again.
