Japanese motorcycle manufacturer Yamaha has added a new model to its Hyper Naked lineup called the MT-1- SP. The new bike is delivered in a sleek, stripped-down styling with a liquid Metal/Raven paint job.
Some notable features of the new superbike include an Advanced Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle system, a six-axis IMU with rider aids, acoustic amplifier grilles, a Quick Shift System, and a polished swing arm with a color-matching lower fairing. In addition, the bike comes equipped with an Öhlins' next-generation electronically-controlled semi-active suspension system that allows for extended dampening adjustments.
In terms of power, the MT-1- SP boasts an upgraded 998cc liquid-cooled CP4 cross-plane engine that comes directly from the race-ready YZF-R1 powerplant. According to the company, the robust new engine delivers the "most potent and technologically advanced engine ever seen on a Yamaha Hyper Naked motorcycle."
