2022 R1 World GP 60th Anniversary

Winning colours, racing heritage.

Yamaha’s first international road race was at the French GP back in May 1961. The first race win came in 1963. And by 1964 Yamaha had claimed its first World Championship. Since then, the factory’s race bikes have powered to more than 500 Grand Prix wins. The special World GP 60th Anniversary livery is marking 60 years of Yamaha competing at the highest level of motorcycle racing.

The R1 World GP 60th Anniversary features iconic red ‘speed block’ graphics and a white fairing – combined with a 60th anniversary emblem, yellow front plate and golden wheels – that are inspired by Yamaha’s original factory race bikes that were taken to victory by legendary riders including Read, Saarinen, Agostini and Roberts. They’re an integral part of Yamaha’s history. And by riding the R1 World GP 60th Anniversary you can be a part of this very special celebration.

      First seen on Yamaha’s early GP bikes, the R1 World GP 60th Anniversary’s iconic red ‘speed block’ design on a pure white bodywork is amongst the most famous and best-loved graphics of all time.

      Brake Control (BC) System

      Technology is transforming the way we ride, and the latest R1 World GP 60th Anniversary features no fewer than seven electronic control systems.

      Engine Brake Management (EBM) system

      Control is everything when you're on the street or track, and the Engine Brake Management (EBM) system allows you to adjust engine braking force. Using data from various sensors, the EBM adjusts throttle opening, ignition timing and fuel injection volume to give you a choice of three engine braking modes to suit different riding situations.

      Aggressive face with LED headlights

      The aggressive face of the R1 World GP 60th Anniversary features LED headlights that project a sharp and menacing look. And the M1-style cowling is also fitted with compact position lights that reinforce the bike's street presence and underline its pure race-bred design.

      The Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle (YCC-T) is activated by a high-tech twistgrip assembly that gives a natural feeling for precise control. Featuring a spring, slider and gear that give a smooth and progressive feel, the lightweight ride-by-wire APSG (Accelerator Position Sensor Grip) twistgrip gives instant throttle response.
