  • the best fucking bike in the world. since 1998!

    every year, the best bike! no bike beats it up.

  • R1 IS THE COLDEST BIKE OUT THERE!!!

  • @ironDsteele Its because of the cross plane crankshaft

  • Hey, You either love or hate the sound of ducati's. I personally love the sound... But i'd rather get the real deal and actually buy a Ducati. The R1 sounds better with the classic 4 cylinder whishiness..

  • @ironDsteele Not pairs, 0-270-180-90 degree intervals.

  • i dont like the sound

    

  • Why do the new R1s sound like Ducatis? Do the calendars fire in pairs or something?

  • buy this bike in australia to drive 100 km/h

  • @steve3sc I've ridden my R1 in the snow a few times and I've gotta say, the mich power pilots 1's are a lot better in the snow than I would have thought. I expected them to be useless...and in some respects they were, but it didn't just sit and spin all day O.o.

  • r1 2009-10 totaly shit sound.lm so sad of this cause lm a fun of yamaha.
