2024 Yamaha R7-R7LA Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by Yamaha for the sport motorcycle segment, the 2024 Yamaha R7-R7LA features a 655 cc (40 cu in) liquid-cooled twin, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 72.4 HP (52.9 kW) at 8,750 rpm while maximum torque reaches 67 Nm (49.4 lb-ft) at 6,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 110.5 HP per liter and a 2,250 rpm working window between peak torque (6,500 rpm) and peak power (8,750 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.

On the scales, the R7-R7LA measures 188 kg (414 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.39 HP/kg (2.6 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 835 mm (32.9 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,395 mm (54.9 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 13-liter (3.4 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 4.2 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 310 km (193 miles) between fill-ups.
