The linked-type Monocross rear shock is tuned to strike a balance between ride comfort and sporty performance, making the bike capable across a wide range of uses. Braking duties are handled by a Brembo radial brake master cylinder, radial-mounted front calipers, and dual 298mm discs, providing linear, high-performance deceleration.
Sleek and Aggressive Styling
The YZF-R7’s design boasts the slimmest proportions in the R-Series family, ensuring optimal aerodynamics, handling, and agility. The iconic R-Series M-shaped air intake, twin-eye LED headlight, and sharp YZF-R1-inspired tail contribute to its aggressive, track-focused appearance.
