The Yamaha YZF-R7 is a super sport motorcycle based on the MT-07 platform.[1][2] On May 18, 2021[3] Yamaha announced the motorcycle, sharing a name with the 1999 YZF-R7 race homologation bike.[4] The 2022 motorcycle is a mid capacity powered by a 54.7 kW (73 hp) liquid cooled four-stroke inline two cylinder double overhead cam 689cc engine.[5] It features forged aluminum pistons with direct plated cylinders integrated with the crankcase.
The R7's reliable crossplane engine's 270 degree crank provides an uneven firing sequence, which is designed to deliver a more characterful note and emphasize torquey acceleration and power delivery. The engine was updated in 2021 to be Euro 5 compliant providing peak output of 73.4 hp at 8,750 rpm and 67 Nm of torque at 6,500 rpm. The Yamaha R7 reaches a top speed of 139 miles per hour.[6]
The 2022 Yamaha R7 model first came in two color options which was Team Yamaha Blue and Performance Black.[2] Later in 2022 Yamaha offered the Yamaha R7 in a special World GP 60th anniversary edition. This motorcycle came in a white color with red and gold accents that was paying respect to Yamaha and their racing program.[3]In 2023 Yamaha removed the World GP 60th Anniversary edition and added the new color Intensity White.[4]
