- None of the five GP760 model years verified, which needs a check against the maker's own document, which the row names, and an engine figure; all five name a source below.
Some Yamaha numbers are measured sizes rather than the number in the model name: a GP760 is held as 753, a GP1200R as 1131, a GP1300R as 1296. None of these figures has been checked against a Yamaha document unless a cited source states it.
