This engine features steel fracture-split that connects with the rods and lightweight forged pistons. This is one of the best race-derived drivers that can deliver the high horsepower and stronger pulse of linear torque. The new YZF-R1S 2018 Yamaha Heavy Bike features the transmission containing 6-speed gearbox that offers an excellent engine response. The transfer stacks the input and output shafts to centralize mass plus it keeps the overall engine size much shorter from front to back.

An all-new YZF-R1S 2018 Yamaha Heavy Bike comes with an advanced rocker-arm valve actuation that uses arm’s lever ratio for more massive valve lift. It uses lower cam lobes plus reduces spring pressure for further boosting power. This sports bike is equipped with the latest exhaust system that has been crafted from titanium and stainless steel. Plus, the compact mid-ship muffler contributes to mass centralization like in 2018 Yamaha YZF-R6 Sports Bike. The Yamaha’s Assist and slipper clutch is being used to give a rider more confident downshift when entering corners aggressively. It allows the rider to handle the torque of the high-output inline-four motor smoothly.

The new YZF-R1S 2018 Yamaha Heavy Bike features an attractive full-color, thin-film transistor LCD meter that includes front brake pressure and the new fore/aft G-force readouts. This sports bike features both street mode and a track mode for outstanding performance. Its YRC settings, a zoomed-in view of the tachometer in the upper rpm range, last lap features, a lap timer with the best lap, speed and gear position indicator.

The fully adjustable KYB shock features the rear bottom link pivot position, which is optimally placed to give exceptional handling and excellent transmission of engine torque. The new wheelbase is 10 mm is much shorter than the older 2017 Yamaha YZF-R1 Sports Bike. This R1S retains 40.5 % ratio of swingarm length to wheelbase for superb handling. An aluminum 4.5-gallon fuel tank weighs about 3.5 pounds less than the comparable steel tank, which further reduces overall weight. The new ABS and unified Braking system give maximum braking performance of all times.

Electronics

The new YZF-R1S 2018 Yamaha Heavy Bike comes with an IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit), which uses six axes of measurement. It consists up of gyro sensor that measures pitch, yaw, and roll. This IMU communicates with ECU, which activates the technologies in YRC (Yamaha Ride Control). This control consists up of Traction Control System, Slide Control System, Power Mode, Lift Control System, and Launch Control System. All of these systems are adjustable, and it can be saved within four presets in the YRC system. The new PWR (Power Delivery Mode) is very similar to the D-Mode system, which allows the rider to choose from four settings of throttle-valve opening rate.

The Variable Traction Control System reduces the overall rear wheel spin when exiting corners. As the lean angle increases, so do the amount of intervention with ten separate settings. The new SCS (Slide Control System) is the first of its kind of the production bikes that comes directly from the Yamaha YZR-M1. It works in parallel with the IMU when a slide is detected while accelerating during hard leaning conditions.

The Lift Control System detects the front to rear pitch rate, and the ECU controls engine power to reduce its front wheel lift during acceleration. It comes in four different settings, plus it can be turned off. The LCS (Launch Control System) also limits the engine rpm to 10,000 full open throttles. It maintains the optimum engine output in conjunction with input from TCS and LIF system to maximize its acceleration from the zero. This Yamaha Heavy Bike features (Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle) YCC-T with latest fly-by-wire technology offering optimum power delivery.
