What Is It?

The Yamaha GTS1000 is a premium sports touring bike. It's powered by a liquid cooled 1,002 cc inline four engine which puts out 99.8 bhp at 9,000 rpm and maximum torque at 6,500 rpm. It's a detuned version of the FZR1000 engine.

Features include:

• Aluminium frame and swingarm
• 330 mm disc at the front with six piston caliper
• 282 mm disc at the rear with two piston caliper
• ABS system
• Adjustable single-sided swingarm at the front with 116 mm travel
• Adjustable rear shock with 130 mm travel
• Triple analogue dash
• Centre stand
• Fuel injection
• Lockable glovebox on the tank
• 4->1 exhaust system
• 5 speed gearbox

The 6-spoke 17" wheels take a 130/60 tyre at the front and a 170/60 at the rear.

Colours: Black, red, red/black

The unusual RADD forkless front suspension design attempts to separate the steering and suspension aspects of a traditional fork. The vertical strut handles steering while the horizontal strut and shock handle suspension. It is also one of the first bikes to feature a catalytic converter.
