But why the hell on earth they will make R1 which looks exactly like R6. This 233 bhp is not believable even .01% because we never saw something happening from Yamaha which once was a speculation.

Well, we can only know about the design once clear shots of the bike is available. And as you said about the bhp, it is unbelievable.

Yamaha is known for trolling enthusiasts I wonder how will a 1000cc inline four make this much power. I'm waiting for the R1 to be updated as It may be my next, wish this power figure comes true and yamaha doesnt troll us like they did for FZ-S V2.0.

Apparently, heavy discussions are all over the cyberspace about this upcoming R1, to be more specific 233 is the digit sequence. No comments till we see some solid evidence. Nonetheless, this is more than exciting as it is Yamaha and reportedly their plans are to take on the mighty BMW S1000RR.

Yamaha haven't given a proper upgrade to R1 and R6 in years.
Even if the rumored digit '233' isn't true, they would surely make it special.

I think the 233 bhp isn't for the production version. May be this is only a prototype.

Sure they will. May be something more than a cosmetic upgrade

Don't know about that. May be just a prototype. The real version may be much more lesser.
