Description
One Owner from New; showing only 23,655
miles; the last of the carburettor models with 147 bhp it remains a seriously
quick and engaging machine
First registered in June 1998, this
early-production carburettor model Yamaha
YZF-R1 is finished in blue and comes
from one owner from new. With 147bhp on tap, the original R1 set new standards
for litre-class performance, and even today it
remains a seriously quick and engaging machine.
Showing 23,655 miles, which equates to an
average of around 844 miles per year, the bike presents as a well-kept example of the landmark 998cc
model.
The
history file includes the current V5C, 12 old MOT certificates, three service
stamps, the owner’s handbook, and a selection of invoices.
A rare opportunity to acquire a
one-owner first-generation R1 with sensible
mileage.
