ROADRACING DOMINATION
The Yoshimura Suzuki Superbike team wants to monopolize the top spot on the podium.
Period. Of course, it takes more than hard work and “wanting it” to succeed in road
racing. Thankfully, Yoshimura’s pedigree of outstanding racing for over five decades
has given us the edge when it comes to laying rubber down on the track and organiz-
ing a successful race effort. We don’t just work hard; we like to think that we work smart.

As the old saying goes, “A racing team is only as good as the sum of its parts.” First
and foremost, you need to have riders capable of taking a bike to the podium. Next,
a world-class crew to build the machine and maintain it at its full potential is required.
On top of that, you have to have management that guides the whole effort in the
proper direction and, last but not least, you need a relationship with the factory that
enables access to special parts. Yoshimura is fortunate to have all of these. When you
add in Yoshimura’s experience and dedication, and the incredible performance of
the Suzuki GSX-R1000, you have a combination that’s hard to beat.

RYAN DUNGEY – 2010 SUPERCROSS/MOTOCROSS CHAMPION


MAT MLADIN – 82 SUPERBIKE WINS

MOTOCROSS DOMINATION
Yoshimura has taken their championship-winning skills
and put them to work on the supercross and motocross
tracks. The popular RS-4 muffler and all-new dual-outlet
RS-4D muffler are a testament to their drive and commit-
ment to the off-road arena.

Yoshimura has been supporting Team Honda Racing’s su-


percross and motocross efforts for the last six years. It was
in conjunction with Team Honda that the RS-4 was born. In
2010, they took on the Rockstar Makita Suzuki supercross
and motocross effort with tremendous results – titles in both
the AMA Supercross and AMA Motocross Championships.
Yoshimura has stepped up their participation for 2011 and is
looking forward to another dominating year.

2011 SUPERCROSS/MOTOCROSS RYAN DUNGEY – ROCKSTAR MAKITA SUZUKI

There’s really nothing like entering a racing season with a dominant rider and a dominant
motorcycle. For 2011, Team Rockstar Makita Suzuki will do exactly that, with both Ryan Dung-
ey and the all-conquering Yoshimura-equipped Suzuki RM-Z450 returning to the team with
the goal of repeating what they did in 2010: Win everything there is to win.
Dungey’s 2010 season was historic, with the 21 year old becoming the first rookie to win both
the AMA Supercross Championship and the AMA 450 Motocross Championship in the same
season. Combine that with his Supercross Lites and AMA 250 Motocross Championships in
2009 and Dungey has won four consecutive titles on his RM-Zs, not to mention the 2009 and
2010 MX des Nations titles as well.
The RM-Z450 is the most dominant motocrosser in the four-stroke era and that’s not expected
to change this year, with Dungey and newcomer Brett Metcalfe set to ride the 2011 model in
the premiere 450 classes in both Supercross and Motocross. They will do so in a team led by
new team manager, Mike Webb, an accomplished racer himself who has led Suzuki to 22
major championships in the off-road sector as that team’s longtime manager. And Webb will
be joined by Suzuki Racing Advisor, Ricky Carmichael, the legend who really needs no intro-
duction. Carmichael has a long and storied history with Suzuki and as the man universally
considered the best Supercross and Motocross racer of all time, he will help guide Dungey
and Metcalfe to further greatness in 2011.
The team will also benefit greatly from its stepped-up partnership with Yoshimura – Yoshimura
knows racing.

2011 YOSHIMURA SUPERBIKE TEAM
Yoshimura Suzuki is looking to have another championship year in 2011
and has the team to do it. Rockstar Makita Suzuki’s Tommy Hayden did
very well in the 2010 season, tallying five race wins and ten podiums on
his way to finishing a close second in the AMA Superbike Championship
on his Yoshimura Suzuki GSX-R1000. Add to that his past successes, and
we believe Tommy will continue moving forward on his journey to get on
top of the box for 2011.

Rockstar Makita Suzuki’s Blake Young had a shortened season, missing


five races due to a mid-season injury, but still managed to score three
wins and two podiums in 2010. Young has become progressively more
confident on his Yoshimura Suzuki GSX-R1000 and has shown he’s a great
racer and a true talent. Blake is a strong contender and we can’t wait to
see what he does on the track for 2011.

RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT
Our methodology is key. We built a completely separate facility dedicated only to
Research & Development, enabling our talented R&D technicians to thrive in a focused
environment while continually raising the bar on product quality. The Yoshimura design
motto is simple and has not changed since the company’s inception: Make the best parts
possible, and never compromise.

MANUFACTURING
Yoshimura ships over 6,000 pipes per month throughout the world. With our dedication to quality,
producing that many exhaust pipes is no simple task, but our manufacturing group consistently
pulls it off. The detail, handwork, and old-world craftsmanship that go into making a Yoshimura
product are impossible to replicate with a machine. The technicians at work here are artists; the
exhausts they produce their artwork. All of this talent, tools, and raw metal come together to form
the best exhaust systems in the world.

to make your motorcycle’s engine perform better.
As motorcycle engine technology has advanced, so have exhaust systems.
Today, Yoshimura has invested millions of dollars in manufacturing equip-
ment to ensure that we’re on the cutting edge of technology. Where tubes
used to be cut with hacksaws and bent by hand over a torch, we now have
CNC cut-off saws to accurately cut pipes to length while multi-level CNC tube
benders shape pipes to exact specifications.

The full systems are designed with nothing but power in mind. Our years
of experience and knowledgeable R&D technicians combine to make re-
markable pipes. Add to that our inventory of more pipe bending tooling
than anyone in the business and we’ve got what it takes to make the best

Yoshimura makes a pipe for virtually every dirt bike need. We have raced and won in all categories,
making us knowledgeable in the ways of giving dirt bikes more power and performance. Currently we
are racing with Team Rockstar Makita Suzuki and Team Honda Racing in Motocross/Supercross, as well
as a huge support team of professional and amateur racers across the country.
All of our racing endeavors work hand in hand with our goal to make superior products. Building pipes
for a factory race effort improves our research and development, which improves the overall perfor-
mance of our products, all while building the reputation of our company. Bringing technology we learn
on the track to our consumer products is what has made the Yoshimura name synonymous with quality
and performance.
A perfect example of how racing improves the breed is our new RS-4D and RS-4 exhausts. Thorough
testing and development efforts in conjunction with the factory teams have provided us new ways to
increase performance, lower sound levels, and centralize mass. The end result is the best product for
our customers.

ENGINE SERVICES ENGINE SERVICES
ISF Process
Yoshimura has an in-house Isotropic Superfinishing Process (ISF) department, and that’s where we can blueprint your engine’s gear Before ISF Process
sets just as it’s done on Formula 1 machines. This technology allows your engine to run more freely through decreased friction and
proper interaction of reciprocating parts.
Even though typical ISF treatments include gear sets and internal transmission parts, all of the reciprocating parts will benefit from
the ISF process. We use this same process on our 240-horsepower Superbike racing engines, as well as 70-horsepower Motocross/
ATV racing mills. The mirror-like finish reduces friction on all reciprocating surfaces, reducing drag and increasing durability. It
also reduces heat significantly, which makes for a smoother-running engine. After ISF treatment, every reciprocating part interacts
smoothly and the combined reduction in friction unleashes previously trapped power.
Unleashing trapped power, lowering operating temperatures, and giving your machine that winning feeling is a good thing.
