2004 Yamaha YZF R1 Red and Black 6k miles
6791 miles - Motorcycle Magazine writers rave about this motorcycle. 988cc 20 valve DOHC liquid cooled in-line four cylinder engine with fuel injection.
"Yamaha's new top of the line 379-pound R1 sport bike has more horsepower than Ford's SVT Focus--173. The new R1 is the most powerful sport bike you can buy. Its heart is a 20-valve 998cc 4-cylinder engine. It has Ram Air, which at the upper revs forces more air into the cylinders and produces an additional 7 hp--for 180."
"This monster of a motor is mounted to an all-new frame that is lighter, narrower and stiffer than the previous R1. Unlike many sport bikes, the R1's riding position is fairly upright."
"We found the new R1 to be remarkably docile with plenty of low-end torque.
Couple that to the riding position and this bike could be a commuter. But
make no mistake, if you have the guts, twist the right grip until the tach hits
13,000 rpm and the R1 will turn your hair white. The bike tops out at
about 190 mph. With a 56 degree lean angle, the R1 will flatten just about
any corner."
If you have been looking for an R1, you are already aware of what an engineering
and riding marvel this bike is. Add the exceptional beauty and good care
this particular bike has received and you have got a winner.
180 horsepower in a 379 lb bike!
