Description

Yamaha 2026 R7 Anniversary Edition

The Yamaha 2026 R7 Anniversary Edition takes the acclaimed middleweight Supersport and adds classic race-bike attitude. The anniversary white paintwork with red accents and gold wheels harks back to Yamaha’s 1980s and ’90s factory racers. Combining R1-derived electronics, precision handling, and pure R-Series styling, the R7 bridges the gap between heritage and modern performance.

Born from Yamaha’s R-Series Legacy

The R7 carries the DNA of Yamaha’s iconic R1 and R6, reshaped for the next generation. Its compact design, advanced electronics, and sleek aerodynamics deliver an authentic R-Series experience—refined, powerful, and accessible.

Powerful 689cc CP2 Engine for Pure Excitement

At the heart of the R7 is Yamaha’s 689cc CP2 twin-cylinder engine, producing 73.4 PS at 8,750 rpm. With its 270° crank and Chip Controlled Throttle (YCC-T), it delivers smooth, linear torque and a thrilling exhaust note. Every twist of the throttle offers instant response—ideal for both road and track.

Advanced 6-Axis IMU and Rider Aids

Borrowed directly from the R1, the new 6-axis IMU continuously monitors lean angles, acceleration, and braking forces. It powers intelligent systems like Traction Control, Slide Control, and Brake Control, ensuring you stay in command at every turn.

Customisable Yamaha Ride Control (YRC)

The Yamaha Ride Control system features three factory modes—Sport, Street, and Rain—plus two user-defined setups. Through the MyRide app, you can fine-tune throttle response and electronic support to match your style, weather, or terrain.

Refined Chassis and Lightweight Agility

Yamaha engineers reworked the R7’s frame for optimal stiffness and feedback. The 41mm fully adjustable KYB forks and new aluminium piston rods sharpen response, while SpinForged wheels and Bridgestone Battlax S23 tyres reduce weight and boost grip.

Enhanced Comfort and Ergonomics

With a lower 830mm seat height, reshaped fuel tank, and revised handlebar position, the R7 offers a natural riding stance. Whether you’re carving corners or cruising home, comfort and control remain top priority.

Connected 5-Inch TFT Display

A 5-inch full-colour TFT screen keeps key info clear with multiple display themes. Smartphone connectivity via Yamaha MyRide enables calls, messages, and turn-by-turn navigation, while Track Mode adds lap timing for circuit sessions.

Y-TRAC Rev – Ride Like a Racer

The optional Y-TRAC Rev app turns every ride into a data-driven experience. Review lean angles, lap times, and GPS traces—just like a professional racer.

Aerodynamic Design and Racing Heritage

The redesigned bodywork and slimmer fairing improve airflow and cooling. Celebrating 70 years of Yamaha Racing, the stunning anniversary white-and-red livery brings timeless style to this modern Supersport.

Why Choose the 2026 Yamaha R7?

Lightweight, intelligent, and thrilling to ride—the 2026 Yamaha R7 embodies Yamaha’s racing spirit. It’s built for riders who crave performance, precision, and everyday excitement.
