1993 Yamaha YZF 750SP Ex-British Superbike 1995-1997

The Yamaha YZF750 was produced from 1993 to 1998 in two forms. the standard R and the single seat SP. Mechanically the SP differed from the R with adjustable swingarm pivot position. 39mm Keihin FCR flatslide carburetors. a lower screen and a single seat. The rear brake is located below the axle not above and is the primary drive.
The gearbox and final drive ratios are different on the SP with the engagement arrangement of gears in the gear box close to 50% stronger. The rear suspension unit was also different and vastly improved for the SP as with the front fork internals. It was the homologation model of the Yamaha YZF750 for the World Superbike Championship before the rules changed to allow 1000cc bikes.
