Yamaha R-Series 10th anniversary

This year Yamaha celebrates ten years of the R-Series – that’s a decade of supersport dominance. When we unleashed the very first YZF-R1 in 1998 the bike didn’t just rewrite the rules for supersport performance, it tore them up and wrote its own. Since then the YZF-R1 and the YZF-R6 have kept evolving, always using the latest track tech to stay ahead of the pack. The latest R1 and R6 are the very essence of Yamaha supersport performance – they aren’t just about big numbers, they are about the big rush you get every time you slingshot out of a turn, revelling in the vivid feedback from engine and chassis.
