Which is a bike with good efficient and high performance....A smooth runway with moderate fuel consumption....Front and rear brakes are of well formed ... Looks like beast in its move,this time around, we got the keys to the bike and spent some time riding it in and around the national capital region.

I never buy it but wish to buy a second hand. I ride this bike by the way on rent >10 times. I love to ride it. Its look is more sexier after ducati or you can say they are much equal. I just love it. I will buy you my love. I love this more than my girlfriend and she know it.. Lol... Nothing is better than this. Go and have an experience.

I’ve been riding a z900 now for about 2 1/2 years and smaller bikes before that, so yeah I haven’t rode a supersport as of now. In terms of being able to handle the power, I think I’m capable of controlling it but was more looking into the comfort of enjoyability of it. The R1 has been my favorite design for such a long time and I would love to have it but I realize it will never be as comfortable as a naked which I’m fine with. I guess I’m just asking what’s it really like to have an R1 and ride streets with it since they obviously look good but may be impractical. Would it be enjoyable if I’m only in first and second gear through the streets?

Tips for other riders
Service the steering & suspension bearings when you get a chance, they never get any love, same with fork oil, same with brake fluid, doing all that will get you access to parts of the bike that are hidden behind fairings & avoided. While doing this hit any thread you can see with a squirt of WD40…. Also spray / grease any pivoting points. Lube the clutch cable & throttle cable, check the chain & brake pads, change the oil & filter & you’re good to go

It's depends on how you ride your bike. If you ride in high speed then you have to change oil after 2000 Km and if ride in normal way then you can change between 3000-3500 Km.

This bike is jewel in crown. except its a pure sports type, but shockingly this bike could be used for all purpose. It has great acceleration and speed. I was more concern about performance in long rides, but it proved there is no barrier to yamaha's great technology. I am amused with the performance of this bike.
