Yamaha celebrates the 25th anniversary of its legendary R1 with a sensational limited edition: the "GYTR PRO 25th Anniversary Limited Edition". This motorcycle, the result of the brand's World Superbike expertise, offers enthusiasts an unrivaled track experience and a real collector's item.

The Yamaha R1 is 25 years old! To mark the occasion, Yamaha presents the ultimate edition of its machine, more than ever prepared to achieve the best times. And that's an understatement, because by being equipped with all the parts from the GYTR PRO catalog, this new 2024 version is even more advanced than the R1 GYTR 2023. Renamed "R1 GYTR PRO 25th Anniversary Limited Edition" ( phew!), she has everything to take pride of place on the podium of the most radical cyclists.

At first glance, to get closer to a real motorcycle entered in the Superbike World Championship, the R1 GYTR sees its carbon frame revised and its tank modified to improve its center of gravity. The chassis is complemented by an Öhlins FGR fork, a TTX shock
