Bolt R-Spec 2022 Yamaha Sports Heritage Bike – Features and Price

Top Features

The new Bolt R-Spec 2022 Yamaha Sports Heritage Bike is a stripped-down bobber that embodies the “Urban Performance Bobber” aesthetic. The 58-cubic-inch (942cc) air-cooled 60-degree V-twin powerplant is proudly displayed in the tiny chassis. The Bolt R-Spec uses Yamaha’s innovative technology to provide a superior riding experience to that of other bikes of similar size.

The bike’s fuel injection and ignition timing maps were chosen specifically for this bike to give a class-leading performance with strong low- and mid-range torque that will put a smile on every rider’s face. The Bolt R-Spec has light maneuverability and stable handling feel because of its thin body and low seat configuration. The upright riding position lets the rider feel the wind hear the sounds, and feel the machine’s pulse. The owner’s creativity limits the Bolt R-possibilities specs for riders who value personalization.

The Bolt R-Spec is the ideal example of a motorbike conceptualized and designed with user customization in mind as the perfect starting canvas. The sculpted 3.4-gallon teardrop fuel tank, muscular blacked-out V-twin engine, unusual 12-spoke front and rear wheels, belt drive and steel fenders combine to give Yamaha’s Sport Heritage series a hotrod Bobber look.

Engine

The new Bolt R-Spec 2022 Yamaha Sports Heritage Bike has an air-cooled SOHC 60-degree V-twin engine that features four valves per cylinder, a pent-roof-shaped combustion chamber and a 9.0:1 compression ratio. It has a 58-cubic-inch (942cc) displacement. The engine is built to deliver a lot of power and has a lot of low-end torque.

The new Bolt R-Spec 2022 Yamaha Sports Heritage Bike has a minimized friction loss to a minimum, boosts longevity, and assists the engine to attain excellent performance characteristics; unique roller-type rocker arms with needle bearings are used.

The motorcycle is suitable for more efficient combustion and optimum power. This bike has a combustion chamber’s pent-roof form that was precisely constructed to drive the air/fuel charge to the core of the piston. The new ceramic-composite coated cylinders feature a high heat dissipation rate and less oil. The new lightweight, high-strength, compact design of high-quality forged aluminum pistons leads to decreased vibration and better durability.

On the Bolt R-Spec, a clever twin-bore fuel injection system delivers rapid acceleration for the ultimate urban riding experience. In the mid-and low-speed ranges, precise 3D maps for ignition timing and fuel injection improve performance. The stainless steel air filter cover gives the Bolt R-Spec a “raw metal” aesthetic that complements the car’s distinctive style. Furthermore, the air cleaner’s design enhances intake efficiency and torque characteristics. On the right side of the engine, a 2-into-1 exhaust pipe system contributes to the machine’s energetic performance and minimalist design while also generating a rich, throaty exhaust noise.

Chassis/Suspension

The new Bolt R-Spec 2022 Yamaha Sports Heritage Bike has a rigid attachment system that mounts the engine directly to the frame. The bike’s double-cradle structure provides accurate handling and boosts city riding enjoyment. Most riders can quickly put both feet firmly on the ground at a stop thanks to the low-set seat which provides a great riding position while only 27.2 inches above the pavement. The short 61.8-inch wheelbase of the Yamaha Bolt R-Spec contributes to the bike’s excellent handling that allows for accurate, tight bends in city riding and robust, steady handling on the highway.

The front 41mm fork tubes give superb suspension performance, while the twin rear shocks with piggyback type gas chambers have been designed to provide good comfort and handle while adding to the machine’s low aggressive profile. The drive belt which is only 21mm broad, contributes to the rear end’s sleek and clean appearance. The carbon-fiber core of the strap offers strength and durability for long-term use. Bridgestone® tubeless 100/90-19 size front and 150/80-16 size rear tires give outstanding road grip in diverse circumstances while distinctive 12-spoke cast alloy wheels provide strength and resilience.

The new Bolt R-Spec 2022 Yamaha Sports Heritage Bike has wave rotors used on both the 298 mm of the front disc brake and the 298mm rear disc brake which are typically found on sportbikes. A new floating mount is used on the front brake which contributes to superior braking performance by reducing heat distortion. The 3.4-gallon fuel tank has a conventional teardrop design with flattened top and side surfaces and a slender shape. Furthermore, the Bolt R-distinctive Spec’s style is enhanced by the superior flangeless construction which eliminates the unsightly tank seams present on so many other bikes in the class.

Additional Features

An all-new Bolt R-Spec 2022 Yamaha Sports Heritage Bike has an LED rear taillight and contributes to the bobber’s modern flair. The new motorcycle has a clean appearance and outstanding visibility is provided by this compact digital LCD meter component. Steel front and rear fenders are suitable for paint and modification. The solo rider saddle complements the bobber’s simple aesthetic while still supporting longer journeys.
