Yamaha’s sportbike family encountered a fork in the road when Team Blue discontinued the iconic YZF-R6 in November, 2020. While the flagship YZF-R1 and entry-level YZF-R3 comprised the brand’s road-going ranks following the R6’s departure, the 2021 YZF-R7 redefined Yamaha’s supersport category.
Road legalities may keep the R/ family apart these days, but the Yamaha Racing Day hopes to reunite the sportbikes at Italy’s Misano World Circuit on June 25, 2022. The event will welcome all R1, R6, and R7 owners to the exclusive one-make track day with a host of activities and courses. Yamaha’s Supersport Pro Tour has already been touring the country, and the final stop will coincide with the Yamaha Racing Day.
