"Yamaha says the R1 produces 182 hp at 12,500 rpm, which should be enough for anyone riding on the street. "

SHOULD be enough. HAHAHAH haha ha ha.
But seriously, that bike is nasty, I love the headlights.

haha ya, I mean I can't stand when I'm street racing a mustang and want to beat it by 100 bike lengths and I only beat it by 77. I also hate when I am trying to make a safe pass and I can only accelerate upto 180mph

The front looks like a Buell....

[KillBill]

I'd buy one

[loridin64]

excellent read.

12,400 retail is pricey

[Qfactor]

nice buell!

[Kurlon]

So, the uniplanar crank needs a counter balancer, but a big bang setup with a traditional crank accomplishes the same thing, sans the need for the counter balancer...

Why is Yami opposed to a big bang setup? : )

thats what i got comin in march

[Bansh]

Sweet Bike!

[butcher bergs]

180 hp and 450-some-odd lbs



Who cares what the headlights look like? You'll be at warp speed all the time....I don't think it'll matter too much.

It's priced at $11200 for the blue and $11300 for the other colors here

[spicy]

damn that was a long article.


don't really like the front or rear, but the side profile isn't too bad. should be hilarious to ride, though, which is the important thing...

[amajew]

the exhaust is uber-butt ugly.... what were the designers thinking

[R7]

I like it

[Devil1]

I can't wait to get my Raven!
