The blue that made history is back on track. 🏁
The 2027 XSR900 GP celebrates Christian Sarron with the exclusive Legend Blue livery, inspired by his legendary Sonauto Yamaha, straight from the Golden Era of Grand Prix.
Ever wondered how YART change a rear shock spring 🔧
Their Öhlins technician uses a seriously trick custom spring compressor he built himself to unload the spring, allowing it to be removed and the replacement fitted safely.
Once the new spring is on, the assembly is brought back under load using a pressurised system before the installed spring length is measured and the preload is fine-tuned by hand to the exact setting required.
Spring changed, preload set, measurements checked, then the shock is ready to go straight back onto the R1.

This is the part of an EWC pit stop you never normally see 👀
The Stäubli SAF45 dry-break refuelling system is designed to do two jobs at once: fuel flows into the tank while the displaced air is vented out, allowing up to 24 litres to be refuelled in under six seconds ⛽️
Usually, all you see is the connector go on and come straight back off. Here, we take you directly inside the process so you can actually watch the fuel rush in and the air being pushed out in real time.
24 litres in under six seconds. Blink and you’ll miss it ⏱️
