December 27th, 2007Review Of Yamaha YZF R1

 

images307.jpg

The Yamaha YZF-R1 bike, launched in 1998, revolutionized the sportbike scenery by efficiently combine the grand power available previously in the true liter class (1,000cc) with the lightweight and receptiveness that a 600-class chassis affords.

Over the years, despite maintaining its characteristic sharp look, the R1 has undergon technical up gradations to keep pace with the times. The 2006 edition features a short-stroke 998cc DOHC, 20-valve, liquid-cooled inline four-cylinder engine that produces a peak power of 175 bhp.

The dual-valve petroleum inoculation system usesmotor-driven secondary throttle valves and 32-bit ECU for receptive, immediatepower delivery. The refurbished Deltabox V frame, revised forks and a 20mm longer swingarm facilitate excellent handling in the R1.

In 2006, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Yamaha racing in America, Yamaha released a Limited Edition yellow/white/black YZF-R1 in original Yamaha racing colors.
