In the crucible of times and trajectories, the R1M does not wait for the years to leave marks on its carbon black skin. Like its sister R1 (without M), 2020 brings its share of modifications to remain at the best of its form and its connecting rods. Efficiency for both, accomplishment for the M, gluttony for the pilots.
Let’s briefly review the evolutions of the Yamaha R1 22nd of the name: engine optimizations to switch to Euro5 and keep its 200 horsepower, fairing retouched (a little) with aerodynamic efficiency improved by 5%, ABS at 2 levels adjustable according to the angle, management engine braking, modified standstill assist, redesigned exhaust with four catalysts, Bridgestone Battlax RS11 tires? all the details are developed in the R1 sheet. But what interests us is how the R1 M exploits its personal strengths. First of all, his semi-active Ohlins suspensions.
The Swedish equipment manufacturer’s “Electronic Racing Suspension” system is more efficient with a new 43mm diameter Ohlins ERS NPX pressurized inverted fork. In the fork leg, a cylinder containing gas exerts an internal pressure of 0.6 MPa. This gas reduces fork oil cavitation caused by the negative pressure that occurs during rebound. The damping is more constant and the agility reinforced. As a result, the rear shock absorber is modified accordingly on the preload side..
Automatic or manual, the system allows you to either trust it and it takes care of constantly adjusting the settings, or tweaking the suspensions yourself and fine-tuning the chassis without taking out any tool. The only drawback is the weight. With this equipment, the R1M is slightly heavier than the standard model (+ 1 kg).
The other particularity of the M is its carbon cladding. Since the first R1M, the noble material was used for most of the fairing; until now it is also used for the rear shell. We also wonder why Yam did not do it sooner.
What to save weight and assert its high-end side. A categorization reinforced by a numbered badge finding its place on the cover of the air box. Its production number will be engraved.
All the electronics of the R1 are obviously found on the M, except that the latter wishes to offer something more to justify its involvement with the pilots. Rather, two more things.
1 / The YRC Setting app, which allows users to create their own personalized riding modes by adjusting the seven electronic control systems. The pilot can choose the setting of each mode and, in some cases, disable certain electronic controls.
2 / The Y-TRAC. It is a telemetry recording and analysis system. It allows users to access the machine’s Communications Control Unit (CCU) and download a variety of data to a mobile device. Thanks to Y-TRAC, it is possible to display and replay files in real time on Google Maps of a race circuit, to analyze and compare a host of information, from engine speed to angle of tilt up to accelerations, and find out when the various electronic aids were activated.
As in its early days, you don’t buy an R1M like you order a cake from the pastry chef; even if in both cases, we want to eat it right away. You must first book it online, on the website https://r1m.yamaha-motor.eu/ (orders open on July 25, 2019) then confirm the order with your Yamaha dealer. After, it is necessary to split an almost violent sum, significantly increased since the previous version. Welcome to this club where the reason is common: an intense pleasure of piloting.Finally, owning an R1M will offer you certain advantages for the Yamaha Racing Experience … or rather should. Following the Covid-19 coronavirus pandemic, the manufacturer has decided to cancel the Yamaha Racing Experience (YRE) 2020 events, which were to be held in Misano, Italy, on April 20 and 21, 2020, as well as in Le Mans, in France, June 25 and 26, 2020.
