From Yamaha website:

The launch of a new ‘R’ model has always been a game-changing moment for Yamaha. And now, for 2025, the time has come to re-define the Supersport category once more with the latest highly-anticipated model to join the legendary R Series line-up; the R9.

While this new generation of Supersport marks the beginning of a new chapter, the story remains the same with the Supersport range’s identity born from Yamaha’s racing DNA. From design cues to race-developed technology, each Supersport model is a product of Yamaha’s racing at the very highest level.

The R9 takes this proven, race-derived technology and design and combines it with the critically acclaimed, triple-cylinder CP3 engine platform which has revolutionised the Yamaha brand over the last decade. The marriage of this famously high-torque powerplant and Yamaha’s renowned race-precision handling creates a perfectly balanced Supersport model worthy of its status as the R Series flagship, offering usable sports performance on the road, and ample performance for the track.

Powerful 890cc Three-Cylinder Engine
Yamaha's legendary 890cc DOHC liquid-cooled CP3 engine receives unique ECU tune and optimized gear ratio to provide track-worthy Supersport performance with a broad, torquey power delivery that's easy to manage and accessible for the street.

Dedicated Supersport Chassis
With its advanced Deltabox gravity-cast frame that's the lightest aluminum frame ever offered on a Yamaha Supersport, a new high-spec fully adjustable KYB® suspension and nearly perfect 50/50 weight distribution, the Yamaha YZF-R9 delivers light, agile Supersport handling that inspires confidence for a wide range of riders and experience levels.

Brembo® Stylema calipers & Radial Master Cylinder
Premium Brembo® Stylema monoblock front brake calipers combine with a Brembo® radial master cylinder, large 320mm dual front discs, stainless steel brake lines and aggressive pad compounds to offer Supersport-level braking performance with exceptional power and feel.

Advanced Electronic Suite
An advanced six-axis Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) is based on the proven performance of the flagship YZF-R1 Superbike. Data collected from the IMU and wheel speed sensors enable a high-tech suite of rider aids including a nine-mode Traction Control System (TCS), three-mode Slide Control System (SCS), three-mode Lift Control System (LIF) and a Brake Control System (BC). Levels of intervention can be adjusted to preference and each of these systems can also be turned off providing the ultimate versatility and control in a variety weather and surface conditions.

Pure Yamaha R-Series Style
With sharp, distinctive R-Series styling including its signature M-shaped front duct and tail wing, combining with new generation design cues like angled LED position lighting and advanced aerodynamics including functional MotoGP®-inspired front winglets, the revolutionary new YZF-R9 is instantly recognizable as the next evolution of Yamaha's iconic R-Series.
