Here are the leaked pictures of the 2012 Yamaha R1, which isn’t exactly going to send other manufacturers running to the hills.
Not a great deal appears different, a celebration of Yamaha’s 50 years in GP racing, some new colours and the front has changed, other than that, things look the same.
Apparently the bike will have a new traction control system that features seven different settings.
The official launch of the bike is later today so there may be more but it does seem a tad dissapointing for those wanting a BMW killer!
