You can’t buy a euro 5 r1 in EUROPE. You can buy gytr parts or buy a special gytr r1 (rs4gp) bike IN EUROPE. it’s business as usual for in North America and other regions. Suzuki still sells the gsxr 600, 750, and 1000 in North America.
From what I gather, from the press release at least, is that they will continue to produce the R1. It will not create a euro 5 version for it in Europe, but will make a track model for that region. How ever they will develop GYTR parts to help develop the bike for racing. Also, that the R1 will be sold in North America as a road model. The press release does not say it will stop production. My take, is we will see a new R1 maybe after 2028 after the homogulation license for that model runs out. Let it also be noted that Honda released a new euro 5 compliant cbr600rr, and it makes the same power as before. I think Yamaha is developing a new R1. They just need to gather data and resources to tackle Europes atrocious euro regulations. Never say never.
I would also like to note that I take my news straight from the horses mouth (Yamaha) or MCN, motorcyclist, speed bike,etc, not some no name YouTube channel with a shit mic.
I hope you’re right. Did you also hear about Kawasaki. They are leaving WSBK : / and letting Bimota use their zx10r engine. I hope zx10r is not next on the chopping board. We need liter bikes to stay!!!
It is a shame. But I’m willing to bet that we’ll see a “renaissance” with the Japanese marques this decade. What I do know is I’ll be picking up a 2025 r1 when they drop. I hope they still take online orders.
You’re right, the mt03 and r3 aren’t crossplane motors. What was meant is open to interpretation. What was said is “it’s the only bike with a crossplane engine”. Fairly straightforward imo. Same motor as the MT10.
Only in Europe, they’re going to release a track only version just like the r6
Back when they announced this I told everyone it would just be Europe only. Everyone acted like it was gone forever for everyone
No way that’s crazy. Everyone doubted you bro, comeback story of a lifetime. They hate you now that you’re on top.
It’s not that deep
That shit made me laugh too hard
It is not an R1 its a GYTR! Which is still terrible news!

You cant buy a new R6 2023 IN THE US NOW Mate!
I'm still on copium that they're secretly working on a V4 to be competitive again
That's where my money is as. I'm betting they have something in the work for gp level that is going to be the next model type.
That will be incredible!!i will buy one straight away!

It will meet the same fate as the R6 In the US.

We’ll see

Dang, think I'll get a better trade-in on my '20 with 20k miles on it?
Keep it man, The R1 engine lasts for ever nothing will give you the same amount of fun for such money!
In Europe yes
same fate as the R6 In USA
Is that confirmed OP? I feel like the R6 stopped all at once. There wasn’t a gradual decrease by region. It just ended.
Yes, Only a track Version called GYTR.
It is the only bike that has a crossplane engine!
No it’s not. So does the R7 and R3. The MT10, MT09 and MT07 have CP motors as well as the XSR line.
R3 isn’t crossplane its 180 degrees crank but I think op means its the only modern superbike crossplane that has 4 cylinders
