2009 Yamaha R1 ridden!


Don’t get too caught up on how the new R1 works, with its crossplane crank and irregular firing order, which is the same as Rossi’s factory YZR-M1 (it’s not a ‘big bang’ motor - we’ll explain all in this week’s MCN for the techies among you), all you need to know is the new engine has transformed the R1 into one of the best sportsbikes I’ve ever ridden.


This is what Senior Road Tester, Michael Neeves of MCN has to say after riding the 2009 Yamaha R1 at the Eastern Creek in Sydney.
