All set for a debut on May 18, Yamaha has just released a new teaser to their upcoming sportbike, the R7.

The R7 has been rumoured for a long time now and we do know that there is a new bike coming, but what we have to go off of are just teasers and hearsay, at least till the launch.

As for the teaser for the new bike, all we get to see is a shot of the headlamp switching on which isn’t much, but it’s an LED unit and is possibly the daytime running lamp of the bike. We could see a very similar looking design to the R1 and R3 bikes however and should be very track focused just like the R6.

There were documents leaked sometime ago that not only suggested that the new bike will be called the YZF-R7, but also that there would be two variants for it. If the trend is anything to go by, the two trims will differ from each other in terms of equipment, the top-spec of which will receive more sport-oriented parts like better suspension and brakes and maybe even more tech.

As for its heart, we expect the bike to use the MT-07’s 689cc parallel-twin engine. Tuning however may be altered just a little bit give it better track appeal than just the outright hooligan nature of the MT-07.

    I don't see the difference between 700 and 600. they just copy the design and change to 100-200cc and say this is a new motorcycle, are they following in the strategy of the iPhone? every year, a new motorcycle and a new name with minimal changes...

    If they were to actually build this bike they would use the cast aluminum/weldment swingarm from the TRACER 700, rather than the flimsy, pressed steel weldment, that is used on the FZ/MT-700.
