New Yamaha R1M - NB12 - 08-03-2015
Will the teams have to run the electronic suspension. On eurosports 2014 TT coverage they interview the guy who runs the Penz13 BMW team, they are working at a S1000RR HP4 (with electric suspension) and he basically says they can't get it working right with the speed and the bumps/jumps. For the Superbike I guess they can change the forks as they would anyway, but superstock I believe it has to remain, teams can change the springs and the shim stack. Will teams run the lower spec normal R1 to avoid this?.

For Superstock you can change the fork internals so I assume that means that there will be cartridges available?

But may be the Yam system is a better one than the BM one, the journos that rode the Yam at the press test ride seemed to think it was , certainly going to be an interesting year
