This exclusive Crescent Yamaha GYTR R1 is ready to hit the track with notable performance upgrades centred on practical, real rider demands. Beginning with the engine, Crescent Yamaha’s cylinder head porting and an increased compression ratio match the GYTR race kit camshafts, air funnel kit and factory-spec EWC Akrapovic exhaust to take this R1 to a power output of around 215bhp – a 30bhp+ increase over the standard bike. Performance and rideability are further enhanced via the fully-customisable GYTR kit electronics, via the race spec wiring harness and WSBK lookalike handlebar adjustment switches.
The R1’s grip and stability are amplified further by the WorldSBK style underslung swing arm and Ohlins TTX rear shock, alongside race-specification Öhlins road & track front forks with adjustable steering damper, as well as the complete industry-benchmark Brembo braking system and Marchesini forged-aluminium wheels.
This special bike is finished with the same care and attention to detail that you would expect from a WorldSBK-inspired Crescent Yamaha-built GYTR Pro Shop machine, including carbon bodywork, Pro-Bolt titanium fasteners throughout, and further recognisable GYTR parts and one-off details.
