1998 Yamaha YZF-R1 review from Canada

What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?

Changed the tires (Michelin Pilot Sport).

Added clear lights.

Yoshimura slip-on.

Fully polished.

General comments?

Kick ass bike!

Power wheelies through the 3 first gears.

Great for stunting.

Handles like a dream!
