Buyer’s Guide Model Detail







Buyer's Guide > YZF-R1
Colours shown may not be available in Canada.
Yamaha's litrebike incorporates a lot of MotoGP technology (particularly with advanced electronic rider aids), while keeping weight down. Styling is radical, with twin, widely spaced headlights that look almost invisible. When introduced, it was top of Japanese superbikes, but since its release, the competition has picked up dramatically.
