WHERE R-WORLD MEETS YOURS
YAMAHA R7 |
Professional rider with advanced skill depicted on a closed area.
700CC SPORTS MOTORCYCLE
Fast, agile and handsome, the R7 offers sports performance with everyday fun. Featuring ultra-slim aerodynamic bodywork finished in a next generation Icon Blue colour and graphics, the R7 is the most recent addition to the legendary R-Series family. With its high torque 689cc engine and compact chassis, R7 adds another dimension to the Supersport riding experience.
FEATURES
High-torque 689cc CP2 engine
Delivering 73.4 PS @ 8750 rpm, the 689cc CP2 engine of the R7 offers thrilling acceleration and instant throttle response. Its 270 degree crank gives an uneven firing interval that ensures a lively and exciting feel as the revs rise – and its linear torque output enables you to lay down the power efficiently for faster corner exits.
Athletic design with R-Series DNA
A key factor in achieving optimum performance is by having the smallest frontal area possible – and thanks to the compact dimensions of the CP2 engine, Yamaha’s designers have been able to develop an athletic bodywork that is slimmer than any other R-Series model. And with its sporty tucked-in riding position, the R7 slices through air smoothly and efficiently.
Aerodynamic cowling and twin-eye face
You don’t need to see the Yamaha logo to know that this stunning new Supersport is part of the legendary R-Series family. The lightweight full fairing with aluminium lower panels has been shaped by pure R-Series DNA, and features an aggressive twin-eye face with its M-shaped air duct and a powerful central LED headlight.
A&S clutch for increased controllability
The R7 is the first CP2-engined Yamaha to be equipped with an Assist & Slipper (A&S) clutch that delivers smoother gear shifting and prevents engine over-rev and rear wheel hop during hard braking, resulting in more predictable and controllable handling when approaching corners. And this A&S clutch also offers a much lighter feel at the lever.
Lightweight frame fine-tuned for chassis rigidity
With a wet weight of only 188 kg, the R7 features a compact frame that makes it the slimmest bike in the R-Series family. Its balance of rigidity has been fine-tuned with an aluminium centre brace as well as by using tubing with varying tensile strengths – and these key features contribute towards the bike’s outstandingly agile and responsive handling characteristics.
Fully-adjustable inverted 41 mm front forks
The KYB 41 mm Inverted front forks give a planted and confident feeling on racetracks and twisty roads. Featuring full adjustability for preload as well as rebound and compression damping – and equipped with a gravity cast upper triple clamp and forged aluminium lower triple clamp – this high-specification front end gives excellent controllability and precision.
Adjustable link-type rear shock
The newly-designed link-type rear suspension system features an adjustable shock absorber equipped with damping characteristics and a spring rate designed to suit the sporty character of the R7. The horizontal layout of the shock helps to centralise mass and achieve high levels of handling agility, and its compact design keeps chassis dimensions to a minimum.
Radial-mount front brake calipers
To underline the R7’s pure R-Series DNA this accessible Supersport is equipped with high-specification radial-mount 4-pot front brake calipers. The race-developed design produces linear pressure to the dual 298 mm front discs – and together with the Brembo radial master cylinder, this premium set-up gives you strong braking power with a high degree of controllability.
Lightweight 10-spoke wheels
For easy manoeuvrability together with agile handling and responsive suspension action the R7 is equipped with lightweight 10-spoke cast alloy wheels. A high level of traction is provided by a 120/70ZR17 front tyre and a wide 180/55ZR17 rear tyre that deliver stable and confident roadholding when cornering, accelerating and braking.
WHERE R-WORLD MEETS YOURS
The lively 689cc CP2 engine with A&S clutch provides torque-rich acceleration for a thrilling and rewarding riding experience on the track and road. Finished in a next generation Icon Blue colour and graphics, the super narrow aerodynamic bodywork features an aggressive twin-eye face with a powerful central LED headlight. And the sharp tail and deeply sculpted tank are shaped by pure R-Series DNA, while the R7’s high specification brakes and suspension give optimum controllability when cornering and braking.
The frontal area of the R7 is the smallest of the R-Series models, and ensures the highest levels of aerodynamic efficiency – while clip-on handlebars, rear sets and a bump-stop seat give you an adaptable and sporty riding position. This outstanding next generation Supersport makes R/World a reality for thrill-seeking riders like you – whether you’re riding on the track or out on the road.
