Description
In 2015, when the DOHC inline-four 998 cc Yamaha R1 was released, reviewers proclaimed it with words like “best ever” and “pinnacle of motorcycling.” The R1 was very good; the R1M was better.
The R1M jettisoned the standard model’s KYB suspension for Öhlins Electronic Racing Suspension (ERS), a fork and shock similar to what’s found on Ducati’s 1299 Panigale. With this suspension, Öhlins and Yamaha essentially divided the riding into different events — instead of trying to look at what the chassis is doing every millisecond — and made the necessary adjustments to the damping to provide the optimum performance for that situation.
Yamaha also stiffened the front spring rate by 16 percent and the rear spring rate by 2 percent. The R1M came standard with Yamaha’s Communication Control Unit (CCU), which enables you to communicate with the bike through a tablet or smartphone app and upload your settings for the various rider aids, opening the door to Yamaha’s Y-TRAC data-logging program. A total of 21 different channels were available for analyzing things like throttle opening, speed, lean angle, brake pressure, engine rpm, and more. Yamaha sharpened the R1M’s appeal with a dose of carbon fiber on the front fender, headlight cowling, side fairing, and passenger seat cowl.
In MCN’s words: “Swathes of carbon fiber, electronic Öhlins, a polished swingarm, and a lacquered aluminum tank make the R1M one of the most desirable Japanese superbikes ever made. Build quality is top drawer and reliability shouldn’t be a problem.”
This parts lot was fitted on a 2017 Yamaha R1. Per the seller, “I sold my R1M but the new owner did not want the track parts. I have about $7,000 into this collection of parts but they’re priced to sell if bought as a package deal.”
The seller notes he purchased them from Attack Performance, HHR Performance, Bickle Racing, Revzilla, Sport Bike Track Gear and notes, “These parts will work on 2015-2020 R1s/R1Ms. I have all receipts. These are brand new parts that have been test fitted to a 2017 R1M then removed.”
“Bodywork is in the as received condition from the Carbonic factory – white gel coat.”
