Yamaha R1 (2020) Updates
Latest Updates
Thursday, 26 September 2019 12:19 AM
The 2020 Yamaha YZF-R1 and YZF-R1M were unveiled with significant updates to comply with Euro 5 emissions regulations. The new models feature revised engine internals, including finger-follower rocker arms, new camshaft profiles, and new fuel injectors. This has helped retain the peak power of 197bhp while slightly increasing torque. I believe these tweaks make the R1 more refined and competitive in the market.

Yamaha introduced new suspension components for the 2020 R1 models. The base R1 gets KYB forks with a new internal shim stack design, while the R1M is equipped with Öhlins ERS front forks with an integrated gas cylinder. These changes have improved rider feedback and stability, especially noticeable during hard braking and cornering. I think these suspension upgrades are a game-changer for track enthusiasts.

The 2020 Yamaha YZF-R1 and YZF-R1M feature enhanced electronics, including a new ride-by-wire throttle system and an improved Engine Brake Management system. The cornering ABS package now offers adjustable settings for better braking control in different riding conditions. I believe these electronic enhancements make the bike more versatile and safer to ride.

Visually, the 2020 Yamaha YZF-R1 has undergone subtle but effective changes, including a revised front fairing that improves aerodynamic efficiency by 5%. The R1M also features a full carbon tail unit and a distinctive race-style silver number-board. I think these aesthetic updates give the bike a sleeker and more aggressive look.

The pricing for the 2020 Yamaha YZF-R1 and YZF-R1M was announced, with the base model priced at £16,799 and the R1M at £21,999. The R1Ms higher price is largely due to the high-spec Öhlins suspension and other premium features. I believe the prices are reasonable given the extensive upgrades and premium components.
