Born from MotoGP, the 2009 Yamaha R1 is the most technologically advanced motorcycle of the day and, implicit, well worth of a detailed video in which the technical specifications are being explained.
Apparently, now you can be your own fan as you won’t be riding, but racing this bike. Just make sure to do it on a closed track.
Yamaha France will be supplying its motor heads with YZF-R1 and YZF-R6 models featuring a kit which transforms them in street legal replicas of the Yamaha M1 raced by Valentino Rossi and Jorge Lorenzo in the MotoGP Championship.
The kit is only available in France in a limited edition of only 35 units and it includes the full MotoGP-style fairing, gas tank cap, and graphics. Also, the bikes feature only the rider seat for extra truthfulness.
And you haven’t even heard the best of it. The kit can be adapted to a variety of new or used Yamaha R1 and R6 models so the price will be influenced by as much or as few elements of the kit you need to buy in order to have your bike look like Rossi’s.
If I would relate the word “funny” with “crash”, this would be the video I’d refer to. But, as I do not want to say that, I simply call it bad luck for the pilots and lots of entertaining for the spectators.

Even though the Texan has a great evolution in this year’s MotoGP Championship for Herve Poncharal’s squad (two podiums and a pole position) it initially considered to quit the premier class and race in America. But it seems that the tough negotiators at Yamaha can make anybody reconsider their options.
Colin Edwards will make team with British riders James Toseland, so Yamaha’s expecting a successful 2009 MotoGP.
Poncharal didn’t lost much time as it renewed its contract with Yamaha for two more years at the same race.

Not only a demonstration of power, a run after points and, eventually, a place on the podium, every MotoGP session is also the best opportunity for nations to show off their beautiful models which dress up in suits of the teams they support and make everybody’s blood flow faster and faster.
Being one of the best occasions, Catalunya, attracted photographers from all corners of the world and who weren’t willing to miss that perfect angle (see the picture above). But it seems that sometimes that perfect angle includes you and the other guy’s camera. Buusteed!!
