Overview
The Yamaha YZF R9 is a sportbike produced for the 2025–2026 model years. For 2026, its liquid-cooled 889 cm³ inline three-cylinder engine produces 116 hp (86 kW), and the motorcycle has a wet weight of 195 kg.
The 831 mm seat height and 195 kg wet weight are useful fit and handling considerations, particularly when maneuvering at low speed. KYB® suspension at both ends allows adjustment of preload, compression and rebound, while the 14 L fuel tank is paired with consumption of 4.90 L/100 km. The assist-and-slipper clutch helps keep the rear wheel calmer during hard downshifts.
