White, Yamaha’s original R1 is, even by today’s standards, a gloriously fast and furious superbike. In 1998 it was staggering. The 1998 bike remains gloriously raw. Blip the throttle and the engine greedily sucks in fuel as the revs rise at an alarming rate. The engine sounds rough, aggressive and ready for action while the rest of the bike feels ultra-light. The whole R1 experience is dominated by a fantastic engine – open the throttle at low revs and the R1 pulls hard. Keep the throttle on, let the engine spin, and it just keeps on pulling, getting stronger and stronger. Mileage is 36278, please note the speedo will be showing in km. It is not a restricted bike and will be full power. The bike will be serviced and come with 12 month’s MOT. This bike has been imported from the Continent and will be UK registered on an age related number plate upon sale. The registration transfer paperwork can take 2 – 3 weeks depending on timescales from DVLA. The North West’s finest family run motorcycle dealership, £4
