Yamaha YZF R1 YZF-R1

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 11,378 miles on the clock and presented in Red

The 2007/8 Yamaha R1 features new-found midrange drive from junking Yamaha’s 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 Yamaha R1 was never short of top end drive and that’s true of this latest version. What the 2007/8 Yamaha R1 does have though is a healthy dollop of midrange kick.

Not that this will be a worry in the lower gears as the fly-by-wire system, linked to detailed ECU mapping, won’t deliver everything the rider asks for, instead giving what it thinks is best.

Variable length inlet trumpets (worked by electronic motor at 10,400rpm) boosts midrange revs and props up top end poke – not just a gimmick, it actually works.

This particular Yamaha is is excellent condition and will come with 12-month warranty.
