2009 Yamaha YZR-M1 runs out of secrets

2009 Yamaha YZR-M1 runs out of secrets


For 2009, the Yamaha YZR-M1 seems to have followed a relatively natural evolution based on the ‘why change it if it ain’t broken’ concept, Fiat Yamaha Team being more worried of what the competition is going to come up with as the winter’s ending is always a tense time of the year.

Valentino Rossi and Jorge Lorenzo will be working with a mind blowing power to weight ratio in 2009 and they seem pretty enthusiastic about their new bikes in the launch video that Yamaha-Motor-Europe has just released.

The funny thing in the Specs is that they don’t forget to mention ‘over’ and ‘in excess’ behind the horsepower and top speed figures.

Press release after the jump.
