2023 Yamaha YZF-R7: WHERE R WORLD MEETS YOURS.

Introducing the new 2023 Yamaha YZF-R7…

A new generation supersport with Yamaha’s legendary styling combines an advanced CP2 engine with an ultra‑thin and lightweight chassis to provide torquey performance on both the track and the street.

Bridging the gap between the entry-level YZF-R3 and the prestigious YZF-R1, the 2023 YZF-R7 offers a unique package of performance and sporty styling that is true to its R-Series DNA and the lineup’s aspirational history of racing success. From its adjustable Monocross single-shock striking a balance between ride comfort and sporty performance to its proven engine and potent braking power, the R7 is designed to deliver the pinnacle of performance on and off the track.

R7 Yamaha R-Series models have been thrilling thousands of riders for over 20 years. Now there’s a sharp-looking addition to the range that’s ready to welcome a new generation of riders into R/World. Fast, agile and handsome, the R7 offers sports performance with everyday fun.

Where R/World Meets Yours

The lively 689cc CP2 engine with A&S clutch provides torque-rich acceleration for a truly exciting riding experience on the track and road. The super narrow and aerodynamic bodywork features an aggressive twin-eye face with a powerful central LED headlight – and the sharp tail and deeply sculpted tank are shaped by pure R-Series DNA. The R7’s high specification brakes and suspension give optimum controllability when cornering and braking.

The frontal area of the R7 is the smallest of the R-Series models, and ensures the highest levels of aerodynamic efficiency – while clip-on handlebars, rear sets and a bump-stop seat give you an adaptable and sporty riding position. This outstanding next generation Supersport makes R/World a reality for thrill-seeking riders like you – whether you’re riding on the track or out on the road.
