Unkut Yamaha YZF-R1

May 6, 2013 by Aninda Sardar Leave a Comment

What happens when one of the world’s best superbikes make its way into the hands of a rapper? Acclaimed French rap singer, Booba, in collaboration with Yamaha France have rolled out a special edition YZF-R1. The French singer has gone all out on this R1, with gold accents and Unkut decals sporting the body panels of the Japanese litre-class motorcycle. The stock silencers have been replaced by dual carbon Akrapovic cans while even the mirrors get that custom appeal. A nifty custom paint job rounds up the package, with a smoked-out snakeskin patter sporting mellow grey tones and golden pinstriping, Many R1 enthusiasts might not agree with this radical paint scheme but it surely does look like a million bucks.

The Unkut R1 has only been built as a sales promotion tool for the rapper’s eponymous cloth brand and will take to the streets of France soon.

Yamaha MT-10 SP – Ready for Road, Track, and Touring

In recent years, however, the MT-10 has begun to show its age, especially in terms of technology and rider aids. It was always on the thirsty side, too, and, by modern standards, the brakes were lacking. It was time for an update, which is why for 2022 Yamaha introduced a new MT-10 earlier this year.
