Yamaha R1 1000 998cc

Description

We are delighted to offer this stunning 2008 Yamaha R1 which has just been imported into the UK. It will be UK registered on an age-related plate which is currently in process.

With only 6,304 miles on the clock and presented in White.

The 2008 Yamaha R1 features new-found midrange drive from junking Yamahas tried and tested five-valve per cylinder in favour of the traditional four-valve set up, but at the same time installing some of the bad boy engine manners the original model was famed for. The chassis also gets updated by way of new frame, swingarm and suspension to make this latest Yamaha R1 a perfect road bike tool and the basis for a stonking trackday and superstock motorcycle.

Typically the R1 is a front end motorcycle, meaning that every road detail is felt through the bars and it drops into a turn as quick as you like. Race track manners along with road motorcycle stability takes some beating and believing, but it does both with style.

The Yamaha R1 was never short of top end drive and thats true of this latest version. What the 2007 Yamaha R1 does have though is a healthy dollop of midrange kick.

This particular R1 is in excellent condition.
