SUMMARY
A very clean example of Yamaha's game-changing superbike.
DESCRIPTION
- In 1998 Yamaha unveiled the YZF-R1, the bike was as big a leap forwards in superbike performance as the original Honda Fireblade was in 1992
- The 998cc 20-valve engine produced 150bhp at 10,000rpm and along with sublime handling and strong braking performance, the YZF-R1 was the pinnacle of superbike performance and has remained a legend ever since
- This very clean, first generation model has covered 40,413 miles and appears mostly original apart from a tinted double-bubble screen and aftermarket brake discs
- Confirmed in running condition and has been regularly serviced
- Supplied with a current V5C, the original owners handbook, the service book with all but one service stamped, previous MOT certificates and some service receipts
