The new Yamaha R1 inherits the most significant improvement in new motorcycles for decades, with the first asymmetric crossplane crankshaft layout ever seen on a production bike.
The science is too complex to fully explain here, but in essence, it changes the balance between the torque from your throttle and the inertial torque from the revolving crankshaft, putting more of it under your control. The result is a near perfect harmony between the turn of your wrist and the turn of the back wheel, with a flatter, smoother torque right across the rev range.
Never before has a motorcycle given you such precise and immediate control, with heart stopping acceleration wherever you are on the road, in the gears, or on the rev counter. The new Yamaha YZF R1 motorbikes even sound like Rossi's M1 as they scream along the open roads.
Of course there are bucket loads of other innovations on this radical racer, from the short stroke, big bore pistons to the three way drive selector. Even the suspension breaks the mould with separate damping functions to the left and right. The aluminium deltabox chassis has been redesigned, and even the riding position has been refined and improved.
Clearly, the rewards for winning the world's premier motorbike championship are high, as despite all the staggering new technology, the new R1 still barely touches ten grand - a small fraction of the cost of Rossi's machine for such a large slice of its technology.
