Yamaha's ultimate tribute to VR46 and its career - a special R1 GYTR VR46 Tribute.

Designed to unique specifications, the hyper-exclusive machine was donated to Valentino at the One More Lap event in Milan as a thank you gift for the many successful years he spent at the pinnacle of motorcycle racing with Yamaha.

The R1 VR46 Tribute shows off an all-new carbon fiber fairing kit and full carbon rear subframe, a whopping 22 liter fuel capacity, while every detail has been designed with weight savings in mind.

In addition, the R1 GYTR VR46 features 2022 GYTR spec parts and a host of WSBK pieces that helped Yamaha win the 2021 WorldSBK Triple Crown. It is Yamaha's highest spec track R1 GYTR ever produced.

The Brembo brakes are engineered for MotoGP-worthy stopping power, while the high-performance ECU REX 140 Marelli delivers world-class power.
Add to that the Öhlins suspension and GYTR front and rear sprockets, and the picture is complete.

As the dashboard itself puts it: Grazie Vale - we couldn't have said it better ourselves.
