Yamaha created the Rapier to give racing performance in a real-world environment. Taking a different tack from its competitors, it decided to build a bike with premium performance, acceleration and handling for the street instead of the racecourse. While this does give it a slightly lower maximum speed, its lightweight design makes it a pleasure to ride.
