Anti-competition slogan

Yamaha, as one of the four largest motorcycle factories in Japan, not only has extremely fine and meticulous car-making technology, but also has created many classic cars with unique design concepts. Today, I will sort out five classic cars from Yamaha for all fans and review these classics in the historical torrent together.

1.fzr 750 r（ow 0 1）

fzr 750 r（ow 0 1）。

1985, Yamaha, which didn't have a large four-stroke sports car at that time, launched the painstaking masterpiece "FZ750" in order to win the competition. 1985, in order to participate in the TT-F 1 class competition of Suzuka 8-hour endurance race at that time, Yamaha built the fzr 750(OW74) racing car on the basis of FZ750, and recruited the famous WGP player Kenny. Roberts and Hirahiko represent Shiseido? Tech2 1 "came out, although it was leading all the way in the race, but mechanical failure occurred at 6 minutes and 58 seconds after the race, and the vehicle emitted a lot of white smoke, and finally it had no choice but to retire, but this did not affect the shock that FZR750 brought to the audience in the race. The heroic battle of FZR750 has long been deeply imprinted in the hearts of fans.

Subsequently, in 1987, Yamaha introduced the commercial version of FZR750R (OW0 1), which adopted aluminum alloy frame and newly imported FAI system. That's Yamaha's first 750c.c, which is a pure imitation racing car. It has five-valve design, short connecting rod and ultra-high speed setting, and titanium alloy piston connecting rod, which can be said to be comparable to the original factory in terms of materials.

2.YZF-R 1

1998 formula YZF-R 1.

FZR 1000 since 1986, facing the strong enemy Honda? With the appearance of CBR900RR, Yamaha began to develop the next generation of four-stroke imitation racing car, that is YZF-R 1. First of all, in the engine part, the original R 1 effectively shortened the length of the straight-four engine by raising the axial position of the gearbox and realized the compact design. This design has also become the object of racing imitation. With Kehin? CV？ 40 mm carburetor, 998c.c straight four engine, had the strongest engine output at that time, the maximum horsepower reached 150 PS @ 10000 RPM, the maximum torque was 108nm @ 8500 RPM, and the dry weight was also the lightest at that time.

With the shortening of the engine, the frame is also reduced and equipped with Delta? Box? The II frame enables YZF-R 1 to shorten the wheelbase to 1385 mm without affecting the length of the rocker arm, and creates amazing cornering performance through a small angle of rake angle. As early as FZR 1000, it became the standard KYB? The 4 1 mm inverted fork naturally extends, and the continuation of FZR became the only car equipped with inverted fork in the Japanese Volkswagen upgrade imitation competition. Nowadays, YZF-R 1 has developed to the eighth generation, and the latest R 1 is equipped with a large number of electronic control technologies dispersed by MotoGP. No matter how many times it has been changed, the only constant is its status as a master sports car and the spirit of track technology.

3.V-MAX

VMAX。

The first generation of VMAX appeared in the automobile world in 1985, and made its debut as an export car in North America. At that time, the research and development concept of VMAX was "street linear acceleration racing". According to Yamaha? The first generation VMAX developed by USA concept was equipped with the representative "V-engine with large displacement" in American motorcycle competition at that time, and became a car model to show the appearance and courage of American heavy machinery.

VMAX's v-type 4-cylinder DOHC? 4. Valve1198 C.C. Engine, using double carburetors as the "V-Boost" of engine power? Forced air intake system "and other high-tech equipment, the first generation of VMAX used the world's strongest 145ps power at that time, which accelerated the huge body of 265kg from 0 to 400 meters in 10 second. VMAX subverts the common sense of American and cruise cars so far, and is warmly loved by North American knights for its unique and strong personality and overwhelming power performance. Because of North America's love for VMAX, it ignited the flame of VMAX world sales market, and became a long-term best-selling car model, enjoying a high reputation in the automobile industry, with sales exceeding 6,543,800+vehicles.

4.SR400

SR400。

The first appearance of SR car was in the second half of1970s. At that time, the engine developed rapidly and continuously with high performance, from two cylinders to four cylinders, from OHC to DOHC, and from air cooling to water cooling. Under this trend of high performance, it is SR that appears in the opposite direction.

Similar to the car model of 1960 s, it exudes a classic sense of aging. It won the championship in 1 and 2 "Paris Dhaka Rally" and adjusted the engine of XT500, a dazzling off-road vehicle. According to the Japanese driver's license system, two versions of SR500 and SR400 with reduced travel and exhaust capacity were introduced, with maximum horsepower of 32ps and 27ps respectively. By today's standards, this dynamic performance seems to be out of date, but it is still single-cylinder air-cooled, equipped with hair pedals, steel spoke wheel frames, electroplating accessories and so on. Except for computer jet control, the classic elements have not been reduced. If you want to experience 40 years of romance, there may be no more suitable choice except SR400, which is an evergreen tree in the car industry.

5.TMAX

TMAX。

TMAX is the first large scooter with a displacement of 499c.c, and it is also the first large scooter with two cylinders. Even if the wheelbase is as long as 1575mm, the sports performance is excellent, and the official claim that the available tilt angle can reach an exaggerated 50 degrees! When it first came out, it subverted the established impression of the big pedal in the past and shocked the car world. It has undoubtedly set a benchmark for today's large-scale sports pedal market. Since TMAX, it has laid the foundation for Yamaha. Max family spirit slogan "Nothing? But? That? MAX ",the development concept of MAX family car in the future is inherited from its design DNA.

abstract

Although Yamaha is ridiculed by riders as the "most crooked technology tree" brand, it actually represents the spirit of Yamaha's courage to try and innovate, and "Revs? Yours? " "Heart" is the core concept of the brand, and it is an unchanging purpose to bring people feelings through the encouragement of the engine. Sports cars such as FZR, TZR and R 1 that pursue extreme performance, or cars such as TMAX that create new levels, have repeatedly subverted the existing imagination of the public. Today, Yamaha still shocks the car world with more unique cars, and continues to create a legend of the car world that goes down in history.
