Summary
When the first YZF-R1 was released in 1998 it re-invented the supersport category. The all-new YZF-R9 is placed to repeat that with its combination of street smarts and race track capability. The versatile triple cylinder bike is not designed to take over from the more track-focused YZF-R1, but complement the four-cylinder machine and introduce more riders to the exciting supersports category.
