2009 Yamaha R1

I will not dwelve too deep in Yamaha’s new crossplane crank engine, I just hope the Kuwait dealer knows how to fix it. With 182bhp at 12,500rpm and 115Nm of torque at 10,000rpm, how hard can it be? And then, there are all those electronics – Yamaha Chip Control Intake (YCC-I) and Yamaha Chip Control Throttle (YCC-T) – FBY - which are still there, while D-Mode has now been added to the 2009 R1. I would not want to have one.
