Yamaha Racing Parts Now Available in Europe

Europeans may now place orders for YEC's 2011 Yamaha Racing Parts to enhance their YZF-R1 and YZF-R6 bikes for their track-day activities. The deadline for the second of three European ordering rounds for the kits is January 14, with deliveries set to take place in late April 2011.

“As is widely recognised, YEC is the only and definitive option for YZF-R motorcycle owners with a passion for getting on the race-track and making the most of formidable Yamaha performance,” the company brags in a statement.

The Racing Parts range for 2011 comprises various components for engine and chassis upgrades, as well as parts suited to older R-series machines and the inclusion of several tools to assist with the set-up and installation of the material.

The renewed parts for 2011 include camshafts, air funnel sets and valve springs for the R1 and a new camshaft for the R6 and for both models updated ECU race mappings are available.

"YEC Racing Parts are developed "in-house" by a dedicated team thus allowing thorough testing and evaluation of every component before a new model is released for sale to the public. YEC Racing Parts are developed using valuable input from Yamaha's officially supported racing teams, as well as from factory test riders, such as 2010 World Superbike star Cal Crutchlow,"
the company statement reads.

The third and last ordering period for the 2011 racing calendar will be up until May 16th for delivery by mid-August, so "do not miss out on the January cut-off date for the latest refinements to the YZF-Rs," Yamaha tells its customers.
